Abstract
In the 2H-chromene series, complexation of the aromatic ring with chromium tricarbonyl, under thermal conditions, is totally regioselective even when aromatic substituents are introduced on the pyran ring. The complexation st abilizes the open form of these photochromic compounds and reduces the ther mal bleaching kinetic constant. Copyright (C) 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
