title: Photochemical control of a highly efficient addition reaction between electron-rich alkynes and tetracyanoethylene.
abstract: The electron density of an alkyne moiety is enhanced by the photochromic ring closure of a diarylethene derivative, which allows the thermal addition reaction with a small π-acceptor, tetracyanoethylene, at room temperature.
