Unidirectional cis-trans photoisomerization of cis-3,3′-bis(diphenylhydroxymethyl)stilbene in inclusion complex crystals
When a 1:1 complex of cis-3,3′-bis(diphenylhydroxymethyl)stilbene (1) with acetone was irradiated in the solid state at room temperature using a high-pressure mercury lamp with a Pyrex filter for 6 h, a 1:1 complex of the trans-isomer (2) with acetone was
