• inhibition nor any significant slowing of the photoreaction of the ligand was observed. Conclusion We have developed the synthesis of two highly fatigue resistant bis(terpyridinyl) diarylethenes by Suzuki cross coupling methods. The photochemical behavior of the free ligand 10a met our expectations regarding

• microwave accelerated cross-coupling procedure between aryl chlorides with a range of boronic acids has been developed. An explanation for the low reactivity of highly fluorinated boronic acids in Suzuki coupling is provided. Background The Suzuki cross-coupling represents an extremely useful method for
