摘要:
Described are photochromic materials of indeno [2′,3′:3,4]naphtho[1,2-b]pyran structure, characterized in that they have a nitrogen or sulfur containing substituent at the 11-position ring atom, are substantially free of spiro-substituents at the 13-position and have been adapted to provide an increase in the sensitivity, visible lambda max or a combination thereof as measured in the Indenonaphthopyran Photochromic Performance Test. Optional substituents can be present at the other positions of the indeno [2′,3′:3,4]naphtho [1,2-b]pyran structure. Also described are naphthols used to produce the photochromic materials and photochromic articles that contain or that have coatings containing at least one of the novel photochromic materials or combinations thereof with other photochromic materials.
摘要:
Described are photochromic articles that include a substrate and a photochromic amount of at least one organic photochromic material (b) represented by graphic formula XIII adapted to change from an unactivated state to an activated state by exposure to radiation substantially in a wavelength range from 380 to 410 nanometers (nm) when measured over a wavelength range of from 380 to 700 nm. The photochromic articles demonstrate a photochromic response when activated behind an ultraviolet blocking transparency such as an automotive windshield. For example, the photochromic articles retain at least 12 percent of the activation measured as change in optical density or delta OD under outdoor simulating conditions in the Outdoor Test when tested under conditions simulating an eyeglass wearer behind an automotive windshield in the Behind the Windshield Test. Methods for producing the aforedescribed photochromic articles are also described.
摘要:
Described herein are compounds generally comprising an indeno[2′,3′:3,4]naptho[1,2-b]pyran structure. Such compounds may be useful for their photochromic properties, and be used in certain photochromic compositions. Such compositions may further comprise other photochromic compositions and/or materials. Additionally, such compounds and/or compositions may be suitable for preparing certain photochromic articles.
摘要:
Described are novel photochromic 2H-naphtho[1,2-b]pyran compounds essentially characterized by having two adjacent moderate to strong electron donor substituents at the 8 and 9 positions or a fused heterocyclic group formed by the substituents coming together, weak to moderate electron donors at the 2 position and a rating of at least 80 in the Relative &Dgr;OD at Saturation Test. The compounds also have certain substituents at the 5 position and optionally at the 6 position of the naphtho portion of the compound. These compounds may be represented by the following graphic formula: Also described are polymeric organic host materials that contain or that are coated with such compounds. Optically clear articles such as ophthalmic lenses or adjacent plastic transparencies that incorporate the novel naphthopyran compounds or combinations thereof with complementary photochromic compounds, e.g., certain other naphthopyrans, benzopyrans, and spiro(indoline)type compounds, are also described.

Described are novel photochromic indeno-fused naphthopyran compounds, examples of which include naphthopyran compounds having a substituted or unsubstituted indeno group, the 2,1 positions of which are fused to the naphtho portion of the naphthopyran as shown below. Also present on the naphthopyran are moderate to strong electron donor substituents at the number 6- and 7-positions and optionally at the 8-position of the pyran ring or a cyclic group fused to the h side of the naphtho portion and weak to moderate electron donor substiuents at the 3-position of the pyran ring. Certain substituents may also be present at the number 5, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, or 13 carbon atoms of the compounds. These compounds have a rating of at least 80 in the Relative &Dgr;OD at Saturation Test and may be represented by the following graphic formula: Also described are polymeric organic host materials that contain or that are coated with such compounds. Optically clear articles such as ophthalmic lenses or other plastic transparencies that incorporate the novel naphthopyran compounds or combinations thereof with complementary photochromic compounds, e.g., certain other naphthopyrans, benzopyrans, and spiro(indoline)type compounds, are also described.

Described are novel photochromic polymerizable polyalkoxylated naphthopyran compounds, examples of which are certain 2H-naphtho[1,2-b]pyrans, 3H-naphtho[2,1-b]pyrans and indeno[2,1-f]naphtho[1,2-b]pyrans each having at least one polyalkoxylated substituent of from 1 to 50 alkoxy units per substituent which is end-capped with a polymerizable group. Specific substituents are also present on the naphtho, indeno and pyrano portions of the compounds. These compounds may be represented by the following graphic formulae: ##STR1## Also described are various substrates, e.g., paper, glass, polymeric organic materials, etc., that contain or that are coated with such compounds. Optically clear articles such as contact lenses or other plastic transparencies that incorporate the novel naphthopyran compounds or combinations thereof with complementary photochromic compounds, e.g., certain other naphthopyrans, indenonaphthopyrans, benzopyrans, oxazine-type compounds, etc., are also described.
