Azines indices

A similar study of the photooxidation of some spiropyrans and spironaphthox-azines indicates that the spiro and open forms of these dyes are singlet oxygen quenchers and that the colored form does not act as a sensitizer. A mechanism is proposed that involves the formation of a superoxide radical anion by photoinduced electron transfer to oxygen from a merocyanine form of the dye, followed by nucleophilic attack of the radical anion on the radical cation of the dye.174... 

Magnetic susceptibility anisotropy has been used to estimate relative aromaticities of some azines <1977JOC897>. If the extent of -electron delocalization for benzene is taken as 1.0, the corresponding values for azines are pyridine 0.7, pyridazine 0.7, pyrimidine 0.5, and 1,3,5-triazine 0.3. Another quantitative magnetic index is the exaltation of the total magnetic susceptibility (A). All aromatic systems reveal large A values, whereas for nonaromatic compounds A is close to zero and it is assumed that aromaticity increases with A. For six-membered monocycles the following values of A have been reported (in units of cm3 mol-1 x —106) benzene (17.9), pyridine (18.3), pyridazine (8.7), pyrimidine (18.2), pyrazine (12.7), l-ethyl-2-pyridone (13.0), and 1,3,5-triazine (19.0). 

Computations at the B3LYP/cc-pVDZ level have also been used to optimize N-N and C-N bond lengths and to calculate Wiberg bond indexes, lone pair acceptor orbital stabilization interactions, and total energies of twelve azines including 1 <2006ACT2057> see Section 9.01.2.8. 

Dye Classification Based on chemical structure or chromophore, 20-30 different groups of dyes can be discerned. Azo (monoazo, disazo, triazo, polyazo), anthraquinone, phtha-locyanine and triarylmethane dyes are quantitatively the most important groups. Other groups are diarylmethane, indigoid, azine, oxazine, thiazine, xanthene, nitro, nitroso, methine, thiazole, indamine, indophenol, lactone, aminoketone and hydroxyketone dyes and dyes of undetermined structure (stilbene and sulphur dyes). The vast array of commercial colourants is classified in terms of colour, structure and application method in the Colour Index (C.I.), which has been edited since 1924 (and revised every three months) by the Society of Dyers and Colourists and the American Association of Textile Chemists and Colorists. Each dye is given a C.I. generic name determined by...
