The attempt to synthesize N-p-tolylsulfonylindolylfulgide by Stobbe condensation was unsuccessful because hydrolysis of the Stobbe-condensation product eliminated the sulfonyl moiety to give, after several steps, the N-unsubstituted fulgide.Pd(II)-catalyzed carbonylation of 2-butyne-1,4-diol derivative bearing the N-p-tolylsulfonylindole, however, afforded the desidered N-p-tolylsulfonylindolylfulgide.A comparison of absorption spectroscopic and photochromic properties of these fulgides with those of the known N-methylindolylfulgide gave the following results.The electron-withdrawing substituent on nitrogen (i) shortened the absorption maximum of the colored form, (ii) suppressed thermal E-Z isomerization, and (iii) enlarged quantum yields of photochromic reactions.

We have prepared high-quality, densely packed, self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of carboxy-terminated alkyl chains on Si(111). The samples were made by thermal grafting of methyl undec-10-enoate under an inert atmosphere and subsequent cleavage of the est
