Proposed reaction scheme of JSR1. A first photon triggers Iso and/or Rho isomerization as part of the forward reaction (all-trans half-cycle, in green). A second photon stimulates Meta and initiates the backward reaction (11-cis half-cycle, in blue). Iso, Rho, and Meta are thermally stable states that are able to start a photoreaction upon absorption of a photon. Time constants and absorption maxima are derived from the flash photolysis data (Fig. 3).
