Abstract
Novel photochromic fatigue-resistant spirooxazines of the phenantrene and phenantroline series were synthesized and studied in solutions and PMMA films. The efficiency of photocoloration (eta=0,36-0,95) is clos e to that of 6-NO2-BIPS (eta=1). Kinetics of the dark bleaching is of nonexponential type with tau 1/2=2-7 s and 18-32 s (T=298 K) in soluti ons and PMMA respectively. The number of coloring-bleaching cycles n-2 10-1320 (PMMA) substantially overcomes that of 6-NO2-BIPS (n=11).
