Abstract
Three photochromic fulgides, rimethoxyphenyl)ethylidene(isopropylidene )succinic anhydride (5) and a mixture of E- and rimethylphenyl)methyli dene(isopropylidene)succinic anhydrides (10) and (11), were synthesise d and reacted with chromium hexacarbonyl to give mixtures of the corre sponding tricarbonyl-eta(6)-fulgide chromium(0) complexes. No evidence for formation of the corresponding diene or enone complexes was obtai ned. Irradiation of the purified chromium arene complexes gave E/Z iso merisation and decomposition of the complexes without photochromic rin g closure.
