Diarylethenes (DAEs) have gained popularity among photochromic compounds as they can switch between two isomeric states with each having unique properties. In this study we explore Suzuki methodology for the synthesis of halogen terminated quinone based DAEs that exhibit halogen bonding in single crystals. Future work is aimed at exploring the utility of these quinone DAEs for the construction of framework type compounds.
