Concept of cooperative switching in DHP chains, shown for the simplest case of a DHP dimer, based on connecting two DHPs via a π‐conjugated bridge. Since the quantum yield for the second photochemical ring‐opening is much higher, the intermediate is not observed during irradiation, whereas it is built up and thus observed during the thermal back reaction.
