Various logical operations can be performed by molecular logic gates (MLG) based on 2-styrylquinoline derivatives using irradiation with light and protonation as input signals and absorbance (optical density) as output signal. The MLG operation type ("INH", "OR", "AND") depends on the observation wavelength.
