Description

Biradicaloids in π-conjugated organic molecules have been extensively studied in recent years because of the fundamental insights into the chemical bonds and unique optical, electrical, and magnetic properties. Several studies have reported that the spin-spin interactions of biradicaloids with flexible molecular frameworks dynamically evolve correlating with molecular structural changes. Although these dynamic behaviors will provide important insights into the relationship between molecular structures and spin properties, studies on such behaviors have been limited to two-spin systems. Here, we investigated the stepwise photochromic properties of biphotochromic molecules involving multiple spin interactions by double-pulse laser flash photolysis. The one-photon photochromic reaction generates the
