A series of new 4H-pyran-4-ylidene donor-based chromophores with a thiophene ring in the spacer has been synthesized. The linear and nonlinear optical (NLO) properties of these compounds have been determined and compared with the results of computational calculations. The position of the thiophene ring proved essential to optimize the figure of merit mu beta, with the best results obtained when the heterocyclic system was closer to the donor moiety.
