An open and closed case : The photochromic bisthienylethene BTTE based on benzobisthiadiazole exhibits excellent photochromic performance in both solution and single crystals (see picture). BTTE shows excellent thermal stability, which is comparable to the widely known five‐membered hexafluorocyclopentene‐based counterpart.
