In this study, a new class of photo- and thermochromic compounds was discovered. Fluorescent dihydropyridazine-appended dibenzosuberenone derivatives with central seven-membered rings were converted to colorless spiro anthrones with central six-membered rings by thermal isomerization or visible-light (420 nm) irradiation. Under UV light (350 nm), the spiro anthrones converted back to benzosuberenones. The chemical structures of the spiro anthrones were determined by NMR, UV-vis spectroscopy, and HRMS analyses. It was also observed that the dibenzosuberenone derivatives were oxidized on exposure to UV irradiation for a long time.

Six new angucycline structures, including spirocyclione A (), which contains an unusual oxaspiro[5.5]undecane architecture, and its ring-A-cleaved product spirocyclione B (), were discovered by heterologous expression of a type II polyketide biosynthetic gene cluster captured from a marine actinomycete strain sp.

A series of Rhodamine type Anthrone-Spirolactam (ASL) derivatives Benzylimin-Anthrone-Spirolactam (ASL-1 to ASL-10) and Benzamide-Anthrone-Spirolactam (ASL-11 and ASL-12) were synthesized via a simple condensation reaction between Anthrone Spiro-lactamine (2) and various aromatic aldehyde and acyl chlorides respectively. Since rhodamine-based compounds were reported to have antiviral activity, the ASL derivatives were examined for in vitro antiviral activity against dengue and chikungunya viruses. Among all the analogues, ASL-3, ASL-6, ASL-7, ASL-8, ASL-9 and ASL-10 were the most potent against dengue virus (DENV) and exerted around one log reduction in virus titre under post-treatment conditions.

The phenomenon of the intramolecular triplet-triplet (T-T) energy transfer observed for spiro[9,10-dihydro-9-oxoanthracene-10,2'-5',6'-benzindan] () molecule was investigated using stationary and time-resolved techniques in the UV/vis spectral region. The rate constant for energy transfer from anthrone chromophore to the triplet state localized on the naphthalene subunit of molecule is 2.8 × 10 s.

Photoinduced reactions of bicyclopropylidene (BCP) with para-quinones (p-quinones) including benzoquinones, naphthoquinones, and anthraquinones were found to proceed via different cycloaddition pathways and lead to diverse polycyclic products bearing spiropropyl moiety. Photocycloaddition of BCP with benzoquinones gave spirooxetanes as the primary products, which upon irradiation were able to rearrange into the spiro[4.5]deca-6,9-diene-2,8-diones as secondary photoproducts.
