Pursuing the Complete OFF State in Photoswitchable Catalysis

This data set describes NMR spectra, UV-VIS spectra, MS HR spectra, XPS spectra, TGA plots, and TEM images of SAT, ST, χSAT(PT)@AuNPs or χSAT(HDT)@AuNPs and χSAT(PT)Ru@AuNPs, χSAT(HDT)Ru@AuNPs or χST(HDT)Ru@AuNPs (χ=10%,20%,40%,100%). NMR data contain information on the synthesis of SAT and ST, spectra of trans and cis forms of SAT, spectra of 20SAT(PT)Ru@AuNPs and 20ST(HDT)Ru@AuNPs, time-resolved spectra of the metathesis reaction of N,N-diallyltosyl amide in the presence of precatalysts (its trans and cis forms). UV-VIS data describe the isomerization of χSAT(PT)@AuNPs, χSAT(HDT)@AuNPs and χSAT(PT)Ru@AuNPs, χSAT(HDT)Ru@AuNPs from trans to cis and vice versa. MS HR data show spectra of the synthesized compounds. XPS contains information on 20SAT(PT)Ru@AuNPs precatalyst. TGA data describe spectra of 20SAT(PT)@AuNPs and PT@AuNPs.
