Described are novel reversible photochromic naphthopyran compounds substituted on the naphthyl portion at the carbon atom juxtaposed to the oxygen of the pyran ring with, for example, an acetoxy group. Also described are organic host materials that contain or that are coated with such compounds. Articles such as ophthalmic lenses or other plastic transparencies that incorporate the novel naphthopyran compounds or combinations thereof with complementary photochromic compounds, e.g., spiro(indolino)-oxazine type compounds, are also described.
