Indandiazocines: Unidirectional molecular switches

We report theoretical investigations on azobenzene-based indandiazocines, novel chiral systems that perform unidirectional cis↔trans isomerizations upon photo-excitation. For three different systems of this kind, we have simulated excited-state surface-hopping trajectories for both isomerization...
