Molecules exhibiting intramolecular charge transfer serve, among other things, as rigid models for the experimental determination of the dependence of this interaction (which is important in photosynthesis) on distance. The title compound 1 is particularly suitable for such studies. Compound 1 was obtained via a very short route by twofold addition of singlet oxygen to [2.2]paracyclophanediene.
