In this study, a family of acylhydrazones was synthesized and characterized for their potential as information storage systems. Their properties were investigated through photophysical and photochemical characterizations, as well as DFT and TD-DFT calculations. The results revealed that the configurational isomerization of the E/Z isomers upon irradiation is influenced by the stabilization of the isomers and the formation of intramolecular hydrogen bonds, along with the electronic/steric effects.
A family of acylhydrazones have been prepared and characterized with the aim of investigating their potential as information storage systems. Their well-established synthetic methodologies allowed for the preparation of seven chemically stable acylhydrazones in excellent yields that have been photophysically and photochemically characterized. In addition, DFT and TD-DFT calculations have been performed to gain more insights into the structural, energetic and photophysical properties of the E/Z isomers. Our results reveal that E/Z configurational isomerization upon irradiation is highly dependent on the stabilization of the E or Z isomers due to the formation of intramolecular H bonds and the electronic/steric effects intrinsically related to their structures. In addition, Raman spectroscopy is also used to confirm the molecular structural changes after the formation of hydrogen bonds in the isomers.
