A new photochromic diarylethene derivative with a 4-methylphenol unit has been designed and synthesized. It displayed distinct photochromism and fluorescent ''turn on'' features to Mg<sup>2+</sup> in acetonitrile solution. With the addition of Mg<sup>2+</sup>, there was an obvious increase of fluorescent emission intensity at 552 nm, accompanied by a clear change of fluorescent color from dark purple to green. Meantime, the 1 : 1 stoichiometry between the derivative and Mg<sup>2+</sup> was verif ...[more]
