Photoswitches capable of accessing two geometric states are highly desirable, especially if their design is modular and incorporates a pharmacophore tethering site. We describe a redox isomerization strategy for synthesizing p-formylazobenzenes from p-nit

A series of covalently-connected azobenzene-porphyrin derivatives have been synthesised and their photochemical properties investigated. The photochemistry of the porphyrin components is essentially unaltered, but photochemical isomerisation of the azobenzene components can not be detected.
