Study Notes

Heterocyclic Dyes

SIX-MEMBERED RINGS CONTAINING OXYGEN

  • Coumarins are an important class of pyranoid dyes.
  • C.I. Disperse Yellow 232 (1) is used to dye polyester a bright yellow shade.
  • Kodak's Coumarin 152 (2) is used in dye lasers.
  • Other common applications of coumarin dye lasers include:
    • Insecticides
    • Food preservatives
    • Cosmetics
  • Dye lasers use a liquid as the active medium to produce a specific spectral range.

FIVE-MEMBERED RINGS CONTAINING SULFUR

  • Thiophene rings can be incorporated into a coupling component for the preparation of heterocyclic azo dyes.
  • Dye 2 was produced from the coupling of p-nitrodiazobenzene onto the dimethylamino bithiophene 1.
  • A series of such dyes was prepared by varying the diazo component to provide thermally stable solvatochromatic dyes.

Explore the chemistry of coumarin dyes and their unique applications in dyeing polyester, dye lasers, insecticides, food preservatives, and cosmetics. Learn about the heterocyclic dye Coumarin 152 and C.I. Disperse Yellow 232.
