The mol-ecules of the title compound, C(29)H(16)F(6)N(2)S(2), a photochromic dithienylethene with 4-cyano-phenyl substituents, adopt an anti-parallel arrangement that is reponsible for photoactivity. The mol-ecule lies on a twofold rotation axis. The dihedral angle between the nearly planar cyclo-pentenyl and heteroaryl rings is 142.5 (3)°, and that between the heteroaryl and benzene rings is 22.4 (3)°. The distance between the heteroaryl rings of adjacent mol-ecules is 3.601 (2) Å, indicating a ...[more]
