Abstract
A new photochromic colorant with an oxazabicyclic moiety has been synthesized by an efficient method. It turns pale red upon UV irradiation and undergoes reverse reaction while being heated. This work may open an exciting new avenue for future development of the photochromic dyes with novel molecular structures.
