Abstract Two new hybrid compounds, which belong to autocomplexes of the dinitroquinoline series and contain an NH spacer and fragments of photochromic fulgimides as donor components, were synthesized. These autocomplexes were used as ligands in the synthesis of cobalt-containing metal chelates. The spectral-kinetic study revealed that these compounds exhibit photochromism. The introduction of photochromic fulgimide moieties ...
