Abstract

A Styrene-derived polymer having pendent phenoxyanthraquinones for photochromism was prepared by AIBN-initiated radical polymerization. Syntgesus of the monomers was straightforward and the polymer was obtained in 65% yield. Photoinduced rearrangement from the “trans” quinone forms to the “ana” quinone forms readily occurred both in solution and in film when the polymer was irradiated with UV light.
