“…In recent years, photochromic compounds integrated into the supramolecular systems have been extensively applied in phototriggers-based DDSs 137 , 219 , 220 , 221 , 222 , 223 , 224 , 225 , 226 , 227 . To date, a variety of photochromic derivatives such as stilbene 228 , 229 , 230 , spiropyranes 231 , 232 , 233 , 234 , 235 , spirooxazine 236 , 237 , dithienylethene 238 , 239 , 240 , 241 , azobenzenes 242 , 243 , 244 , 245 , 246 and 1,3-diazabicyclo[3.1.0]hex-3-ens, as a rather less renowned photochromic derivative 247 , 248 , 249 , 250 , 251 have been developed that undergo structural changes through rotation or inversion on the original double bond, ring-opening process or the mixture of both processes in response to light irradiation. PTDDSs can be either reversible or irreversible depending on the type of the substrates that absorb the light.…”
