Photokinetics of two novel photochromic diarylethenes derived from benzothiophene
Two new unsymmetrically substituted photochromic diarylethenes, namely 3-[3, 3,4,4,5,5-hexafluoro-2-(2-methylbenzothien-3-yl)cyclopent-1-en-1-yl]-2- methyl-6-methoxy-1- benzothiophene and 3-[3,3,4,4,5,5-hexafluoro-2-(2- methylbenzothien-3-yl)cyclopent-1-en-1-yl]-2-methyl-6-methoxy-7-nitro-1- benzoth...
