Deskripsi
The title compound, C29H23F6NO2S, a member of a new family of photochromic diarylethene compounds having an unsymmetrically substituted hexafluorocyclopentene unit, displays dihedral angles between the indole and thiophene rings of 52.5 (4)°, and between the indole ring and the planar C—C=C—C unit of the cyclopentene ring of 53.8 (6)°. The distance between the potentially reactive C atoms from the two heteroaryl substituents of 3.817 (6) Å is proven to be short enough for photocyclization to occur.
