Synthesis and nonlinear optical properties of 1,3,5-methoxy-2,4,6-tris(styryl)benzene derivatives.
[reaction: see text] Novel two-dimensional octupoles containing donors at the core and acceptors at the edge of peripheral groups were synthesized by Horner-Wittig reactions. These chromophores show very large first hyperpolarizability and good thermal stability and are attractive candidates for nonlinear optical materials.
