Two new thermally irreversible photochromic (R)-binaphthol-condensed indolylfulgides (with a 1-(1,2-dimethyl-3-indolyl)-2-methylpropylidene group and with a 1-(1,2-dimethyl-3-indolyl)butylidene group, 6 and 7, respectively) were synthesized. Because of rapid thermal equilibration between the conformational isomers of 7E at room temperature, photocyclization of a substantial portion of 7E occurred through (P)-7E alpha to give (9aS)-6C selectively. On the other hand, as thermal equilibration requires a long time for 6E at room temperature, its photochromic interconversion occurs only between (P)-6E alpha and (9aS)-6C, and the photocyclization-inert 6E remained unchanged. The thermal stability and fatigue resistivity toward the iterative photochromic interconversion of 7 have been proved to be excellent among the fulgide derivatives. The photochromic reactions were accompanied by large changes of specific rotation values. The X-ray crystallographic analysis of a visible-light-sensitive colored form, (9aS)-6C, was carried out.
