TL;DR: This Account provides an overview of the multiswitchable molecular systems that incorporate at least one diarylethene group, which is the most successful thermally stable (P-type) organic photochrome and emphasizes the promising successes of asymmetric diaryleThene dimers and trimers and molecules that combine two families of photochromes, such as diaryle thene added to fulgimide or phenoxy-naphthacenequinone.

TL;DR: These results provide the most direct demonstration of the concept of surface selection rules in SERS, and further confirm the validity of the SERS-EM model beyond the |E|(4)-approximation.

TL;DR: In this article, the substituent effect on the optical properties of both the closed-ring and open-ring isomers of a series of dithienylethene photochromic molecules was studied.

TL;DR: The geometrical, energetic, and electronic parameters obtained at the SCC‐DFTB level for the small Au3SCH3 gold–thiolate compound compare very well with DFT results, and prove that the different binding situations of the sulfur atom on gold are correctly described with the current parameters.

TL;DR: In this article, the Diels-Alder irreversible cycloadditions of 1,3-cyclohexadiene, 3-carbomethoxy-2-pyrone and 2-methoxythiophene with acetylenic dienophiles under solvent-free conditions are described.
