1,3-bisarylbutadienes: Novel thermally irreversible photochromic system

摘要

Novel thermally irreversible photochromic compounds 10, 20 and 30 based on 1,3-bisarylbutadiene system were synthesized. The closed ring-forms 1C and 2C showed absorption maximum at 445 nm, while the closed ring-form 3C, a methyl group of 2C on C-5 of thienyl ring was replaced with a formyl group, showed the absorption maximum at 500 nm.
