The title compound, C(24)H(20)F(6)OS(2), exhibiting photochromic behaviour, has thienyl and benzothienyl substituents attached to the double-bond C atoms of the envelope-shaped cyclo-pentene ring. The mean planes of aromatic systems form dihedral angles of 43.0 (1) (thien-yl) and 73.8 (1)° (benzothien-yl) with the mean plane of the C-C=C-C portion of the cyclo-pentene ring. This conformation avoids steric hindrance between the n-butyl and ethyl substituents. The formyl substituent of the thienyl ...[more]
