Donor-Acceptor Substituted Benzo-, Naphtho- and Phenanthro-Fused Norbornadienes

Donor-Acceptor Substituted Benzo-, Naphtho- and Phenanthro-Fused Norbornadienes

The photochromic norbornadiene/quadricyclane (NBD/QC) couple has found interest as a molecular solar thermal energy (MOST) system for storage of solar energy. To increase the energy difference between the two isomers, we present here the synthesis of a selection of benzo-fused NBD derivatives that c...
