AbstractA novel supramolecular photoswitch containing bisthienylethene-pyridine (BTEPy) and carboxyl attached tetrathiafluvalene (TTF­COOH) was constructed via intermolecular hydrogen bond. FT-IR spec-tra, XPS characterizations, 1H NMR and theoretical calculation were carried out to verify the formation ofthe intermolecular hydrogen bond. The supramolecular self-assemblies BTEPy Á 2TTF show good photo- chromic properties. A molecular switch with UV/vis light as inputs and electrochemical signals as outputs was obtained.
