ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a class of bridged phthalides and sulfinate esters which exhibit reversible thermochromism. At room temperature and in the presence of base, these compounds are substantially colorless but upon the application of heat they become colored, reverting to their original colorless or weakly colored state upon cooling. This colorless to colored, temperature-dependent cycle can be repeated many times. These compounds have utility as temperature sensors and as thermal pH indicators.
