SUMMARY Eight new condensing
chain substttuted benzylidene cyanine 4-dimethylamino-2’-nitrobenzophenone
dyes and
have been prepared 4-drmethylamzno-3’S’-
by
dmitrobenzophenone with methiodides of quinaldine and 6_haloquinaldines, m absolute ethanol, using pipen’dine as a basic catalyst. The optical absorption and extra sensltisation data of the dyes have been recorded and compared with those of their methin analogues. The dyes absorb at longer wavelengths than thezr unsubstituted analogues, contrary to earlier observations.‘d The dyes obtained from the 2’-nitroketone are good sensitisers, whereas those obtained from the 3’,5’-dinitroketone, are densensitisers

tN-l-R3DUCTION
Although quite a large number of 4-dialkylamino styryl dyes, containing different variously substituted heterocyclic nuclei are reported, and the effect on optlcal absorption and sensitisation of substituents in the hetero part of ‘rhe hemicyanines has been extensively studied,’ very little work has been carried out to study the effect of substituents in the methin chain of the dye Moreover, Q!- and p-methin substitutions in styryl cyanines are mo1ecules.8-” reported to cause a hypsochromic shift in the absorption maxima, when but the extent of the hypsocompared to their unsubstituted analogues,‘-3 chromic shift is less pronounced in the case of P-substituted products.It was 161 ~ye_~and figments England, 1980 Printed an Nor&em

therefore of interest to prepare some ,G-methin substituted styryi cyanines and study thetr opttcal properties systematically_ The p-methtn chain substitution can be effected by using suitable I-pdtalkylamino ketones in place of 4-p-dialkylaminoaldehydes This paper reports the preparation of dyes denved from two ketones, 44-dimethylamtno-3’.5’-dmitrodimethylamino-2’-nitrobenzophenone and benzophenone. whtch were obtained by the method of Shah er al.” with suttable modificattons. The quatemtsed bases required, were prepared by heating the base with methy iodide-l3 The synthesised ketones were separately condensed rn the usual waylJ wtth methtodtdes of qutnaldine” and 6-chloro-. 6-bromoand 6-iodoqutnaldinest3 I6 tn absolute ethanol in the presence of a few drops of ptperidtne to afford etght new dyes (II),,-D2,) as in Scheme 1 The dyes (D,,-D,,) obtained from 4-dtmethylamtno-2’-nttrobenzophenone from 4-dimethylamtno-3’.5’-dinttrobenzophenone are and dyes (D3, -DZ2) htghly crystalline and are mostly dark vrolet m colour. Then- alcoholtc soluttons are either reddish vtolet or violet The colour is reverstbtly dtscharged by addttion of mtneral actds and regenerated on bastficatton, indtcsttve of the charactensttc of cyantne dyes ,!3-Methrn substttutton may affect the resonance stabiltsatron of substttuted dye molecules stertcally and electrontcally. as the substituents under study are electron attracttng. The stenc htndrance to resonance tn the matn conjugated chatn due to bulkrness of the substttuents IS hkely to be significant too. The data for optical absorptton maxima and the ranges of extra sensttisation have been recorded. analysed and compared wtth those of their corresponding styryl analogues wherever posstble and reasonable conclusions have been drawn.

The absorptton ma\tma and extra senstttsatton of the newly prepared dyes and those of thetr styryl analogues. available tn the literature. are shown tn Table 1 for comparison. It ~111 be evident from the absot-ptton data that P-methtn substttutton, whether by 2-nttrophenyl or by 3.5-dtnitrophenyl, has caused an almost untform bathochromtc shift in A,,, by about 30 rnp. It will also be seen that 6-substttution of the heteronucleus has caused only a slight bathochromic shift the order being 6-H < 6-CI < 6-Br < 6-I tn both the 2-nitro senes and tn A,,. the 3.5dmicro sertes Analysts of the sensittsation data. however, does not lead to any definite generalisation The p-2-nitrophenyl dyes are inferior sensitisers to their unsuhstttuted analogues. while the P-3.5-dtmtrophenyl dyes are desensittsers

(I) 4-Dimethylamino-2’-mtrobenzophenone: Dtmethylanihne (8 ml) was added in portions to a mixture of o-nitrobenzanihde (3g) and phosphorus oxychloride (8 ml) and warmed (4045°C) for 8 h. The viscous mass, on extracting with hydrochlonc acid, was almost neutralised with sodium hydroxide solution and rendered homogeneous with alcohol. The ketone, which separated after additton of a few drops more of sodium hydroxtde solution and chilling, was recrystallised from toluene as shining deep orange leaflets (yield 30%. m p. 24%50°C; ref. 12. yield not mentioned, m-p. 251-53°C). (ii) 4-Dimethylamlno-3’,5’-dmltrobenzophenone: 3,5-Dinitrobenzanilide (5 g) and dimethylanihne (7 ml) were mixed together and phosphorus oxychloride (7 ml) was slowly added.
