Abstract
Two novel molecules TAP and TAH with pronounced reversible halochromic properties have been synthesized and fully characterized. Their butterfly-like structures have been confirmed through single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Their UV-Vis absorption after protonation dramatically red-shifted with naked-eye-visible color change in a very dilute concentration of 10−5 M. Note that the original color of the solution can be recovered after the neutralization with a base.
