Dyes comprising an inner salt of a compound of the formula: wherein: Q1 is a 4-(benz[b]-4H-pyrylium)methylidene, 4-(benz[b]-4H-thiopyrylium)methylidene or 4-(benz[b]-4H-selenopyrylium)methylidene grouping; Z is a 1,3-(2-hydroxy-4-oxo-2-cyclobutylidene) hydroxide or 1,3-(2-hydroxy-4,5-dioxo-2-cyclopentylidene) hydroxide ring; and Q2 is a 4-(benz[b]-4H-pyran-4-ylidene)methyl, 4-(benz[b]-4H-thiopyran-4-ylidene)methyl or 4-(benz[b]-4H-selenopyran-4-ylidene)methyl grouping; wherein at least one of the groupings Q1 and Q2 carries at its 2-position a substituent in which a non-aromatic carbon atom is bonded directly to the benzpyrylium, benzthiopyrylium or benzselenopyrylium nucleus, subject to the proviso that if this 2-substituent contains an aromatic nucleus, this aromatic nucleus is not conjugated with the benzpyrylium, benzthiopyrylium or benzselenopyrylium nucleus to which it is attached, are useful as visible and near infra-red absorbers, having high extinction coefficients and improved solubility in polymeric media.

The reactions of the trimethylsilyl enol ethers of both 4-thiochromanone and 4-thiochromanone 1,1-dioxide with various carbonyl compounds complexed with titanium tetrachloride give moderate yields of the previously unknown 3-alkylidene condensation products under mild conditions.Other Lewis acids, with the exception of boron trifluoride, were found to be ineffective in this transformation.
