A problem is presented in that conventional photochromic compounds cannot be considered adequate in terms of the colorizing/decolorizing rate and durability, and the production process therefore has many steps. The present invention provides an industrially applicable photochromic compound that has both a rapid colorizing/decolorizing reaction and high durability and can also be synthesized at a low cost. This compound is characterized in that etheric oxygen atoms are bonded to the carbon atoms at position 1 of a pyranoquinazoline (8H-pyrano[3,2-f]quinazoline) skeleton and position 10 of a naphthopyran (3H-naphtho[2,1-b]pyran) skeleton, said compound having photochromic properties and being a photochromic compound that has both a rapid colorizing/decolorizing reaction and high durability. Also provided is an industrially applicable photochromic compound that can be synthesized at a low cost.
