Photochromic naphthopyran derivatives were synthesised for anion recognition applications. The crystal structure, experimental and theoretical investigation of photochromic and anion sensing properties of a simple naphthopyran derivative were investigated. The naphthopyran derivative displayed good fatigue resistance and selective sensing response towards cyanide ions. The mechanism of complex formation was suggested based on NMR studies. Theoretical calculations were performed to understand the experimental results. An excellent correlation between the theoretical and experimental data was observed.

(Chemical Equation Presented) A light-controlled reversible binding switch based on photochromic 3H-naphtho[2,1-b]pyran is under development for studying cellular oscillatory calcium signals. The binding affinities of the closed and open forms of substituted naphthopyran 1 for Ca2+, Mg2+, and Sr2+ in buffer were determined. The photochemically ring-opened form of the receptor exhibited increased affinity compared to the thermally stable closed form of the receptor. The binding affinity difference for Ca 2+ was ~77-fold at pH 7.6.
