Significance
This work describes the synthesis of a phenylazopyridine (PAP) decorated porphyrin system. The resulting pophyrin derivative is diamagnetic when the PAP arm is in the trans geometry. Upon irradiation, the PAP isomerizes to the cis form yielding a paramagnetic complex.
Comment
The authors have created a simple but elegant system with controllable magnetic properties. The porphyrin is capable of cycling between the two states over 10,000 cycles with no observed degradation. Preliminary results suggest this complex may be promising as an MRI contrast agent.
