Abstract

The transition between the merocyanine and spiropyran forms switches the selectivity of the bis(spiropyran) azacrown ether 1 from La3+ to K+ [Eq. (1)]. Thus, 1 offers much greater possibilities for selectivity control between multi- and monovalent metal ions than the corresponding unsubstituted azacrown ether.
