Abstract

Abstract Novel photochromic compounds are disclosed, which compounds are represented by the general formula <IMAGE> in which R1 represents an alkyl group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, R2, R3, R4 and R5 independently represent an alkyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, an alkoxy group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, a halogen atom, a nitro group, a cyano group or a dimethylamino group, and R6, R7 and R8 independently represent a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, an alkoxy group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, or a halogen atom, and correspondingly 97 to 50 wt % of a film-forming polymer. Photosensitive compositions and materials comprising the compounds are also described.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 123 words
A photosensitive composition comprising 3 to 50 wt. % of a photochromic compound of the general formula ##STR25## in which R 1 represents an alkyl group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, R 2 , R 3 , R 4 and R 5 independently represent an alkyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, an alkoxy group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, a halogen atom, a nitro group, a cyano group or a dimethylamino group, and R 6 , R 7 and R 8 independently represent a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, an alkoxy group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, or a halogen atom, and correspondingly 97 to 50 wt. % of a film-forming polymer.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 123 words
A photosensitive composition comprising 3 to 50 wt. % of a photochromic compound of the general formula ##STR25## in which R 1 represents an alkyl group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, R 2 , R 3 , R 4 and R 5 independently represent an alkyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, an alkoxy group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, a halogen atom, a nitro group, a cyano group or a dimethylamino group, and R 6 , R 7 and R 8 independently represent a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, an alkoxy group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, or a halogen atom, and correspondingly 97 to 50 wt. % of a film-forming polymer.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 34 words
