A new photochromic diarylethene of 1-(3,5-dimethyl-4-isoxazole)-2- (2-methyl-(5-ethynyl)-3-thienyl) perfluorocyclopentene (1o) was synthesized. Its photochromic and fluorescence properties were investigated systematically. Upon irradiation with UV light with the extended response time, the diarylethene underwent a ring opening reaction to produce closed forms and color change in solution. The results showed the compound exhibited good photochromism in hexane solution. The kinetic experiments showed that the cyclization and cycloreversion processes were zeroth and first order reaction, respectively. Moreover, diarylethene1oalso exhibited obviously fluorescence switches along with the photochromism.
