title: A self-contained photoacid generator for super acid based on photochromic terarylene.
abstract: A self-contained photoacid generator for super acid along with the photoinduced 6π-electrocyclization reaction of the terarylene backbone is demonstrated. The photoinitiated cationic polymerization of epoxy-monomers is achieved with an efficient photochemical quantum yield, Φacid= 0.47.
