We have designed and synthesized photochromic tetrathienyl corannulene compounds, 1,2,7,8‐tetrakis(2‐methyl‐5‐phenylthiophen‐3‐yl)corannulene (1) and 1,2,7,8‐tetrakis(2,4‐dimethyl‐5‐phenylthiophen‐3‐yl)corannulene (2), by fusing two units of photochromic terarylene with a curved aromatic corannulene with a promising antenna effect. Compound1exhibited highly sensitive photoreactivity, with a large molar absorption coefficient of 8.2×104M−1cm−1and practically photon‐quantitative photocyclization. On the other hand, a terarylene derivative with a planar aromatic phenanthrene, 9,10‐bis(2,4‐dimethyl‐5‐phenylthiophen‐3‐yl)phenanthrene (4) showed no photoreactivity. The reason for such a difference was attributed to the predominance of the photoreactive atropisomers amplified by energy migration, and the shortened distance between reactive carbons induced by the curved structure.
