We present a fully reversible and highly efficient on-off photoswitching of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast with green (500 nm) and violet-blue (435 nm) light. The contrast change is based on intramolecular light-driven coordination-induced spin state switch (LD-CISSS), performed with azopyridine-substituted Ni-porphyrins. The relaxation time of the solvent protons in 3 mM solutions of the azoporphyrins in DMSO was switched between 3.5 and 1.7 s. The relaxivity of the contrast agent changes by a factor of 6.7. No fatigue or side reaction was observed, even after >100 000 switching cycles in air at room temperature. Electron-donating substituents at the pyridine improve the LD-CISSS in two ways: better photostationary states are achieved, and intramolecular binding is enhanced.
TITANIUM (O) REAGENTS; 4. A SELECTIVE AND EFFICIENT REDUCTION OF NITROPYRIDINE DERIVATIVES

Following the successful applications of a titanium (O) slurry in the deoxygenation of aromatic N-oxides, we attempted to achieve this method for the reduction of a nitro- group in pyridine derivatives.In general, only aminopyridine derivates were formed in 85-98percent yield.The advantage of this excellent reducing agent consists in mild reaction conditions and high yields of products, as well as in the selectivity of the reaction.
