Abstract
Photochromic diarylethene have received considerable attention because of their potential photonic applications. All of these applications come from the fact that when stimulated with light at appropriate wavelengths, the physical and chemical properties can be reversibly modulated. During the last decade, more and more decoration on the general structures of diarylethene and novel skeletons beyond the general structures have been developed from many motivation aspects, such as seeking for facile synthetic routes, the ability to tailor the physical and chemical properties in flexible manner and etc. This article describes recent novel development of molecular structure design strategies of diarylethene.

Catalytic C-H bond activation as a tool for functionalization of heterocycles
The major topic is the functionalization of heterocycles through catalyzed C-H bond activation. The strategies based on C-H activation not only provide straightforward formation of C-C or C-X bonds but, more importantly, allow for the avoidance of pre-functionalization of one or two of the cross-coupling partners. The beneficial impact of ...read more
