The synthesis of the unsymmetrical triarylmethine dyes 4 derived from a lithiated naphthopyran and diaryl ketones is reported. In toluene solution 4 display a typical reversible photochromic response becoming coloured upon irradiation with UV light and fa
Oligothiophene-linked bisnaphthopyrans: Sequential and temperature- dependent photochromism

Photochromic bisnaphthopyrans linked with oligothiophenes were synthesized and their photochromic behavior studied. Sequential and temperature-dependent photochromism was observed in the oligothiophene linked bisnaphthopyrans. The kinetics of photo and thermal processes in bisnaphthopyrans in comparison with naphthopyrans were studied, Substituent and linking effects on the photochromic properties are discussed. We demonstrate that the cross-talk between the two photochromophores is dependent on the length of the oligothiophene linker. The presence of the bithiophene linker led to high colorability and high quantum yield of coloration.

The synthesis of 3H-naphtho[2,1-b]pyrans 9-21 linked to a thiophene moiety is described. Two different synthetic approaches were applied to prepare these novel functionalized compounds, and their spectrokinetic properties in solution are reported.
