Structurally colored substituted

Besides protonation, electrophilic substitution at the 1- and 3-positions is another typical feature of azulene reactivity (55FCF(3)334, p. 367 59MI2, p. 310 61FOR(19)32 66MI1 84MI1 85HOU(5/2c)127, p. 249). Assisted by their polarity (see structures 232), azulenes have been even described as "pacemakers" (typical model compounds) of new electrophilic reactions (66CZ691) since they are colored, substitution can easily be observed and optimal conditions can be worked out. Examples mentioned earlier in the synthetic Section 2 are those of thiocyanation (Scheme 32) and alkylation (Scheme 38). In the case of occupied 1- and 3-positions reactions at C-5 and C-7 can be observed. 

AQ dyes are used for a broader spectrum of resins than that of the azo dyes. They are heavily used in styrene, ABS, SAN, polycarbonate, acrylics, cellulosics, polyesters etc. and are well known for excellent weatherability in the transparent mode such as red taillights, but in tint applications the light stability is greatly reduced. Heat, photo and chemical stability vary considerably as the pendants on the base AQ structure are substituted. Awareness of these differences is essential in color formulating. Most AQ dyes are not recommended for polyamide applications as these resins react with amine pendants and can remove the color. We are... 

Although the term terpene once referred only to hydrocarbons current usage includes functionally substituted derivatives as well grouped together under the general term isoprenoids Figure 26 6 (page 1086) presents the structural formulas for a number of representative examples The isoprene units m some of these are relatively easy to identify The three isoprene units m the sesquiterpene farnesol, for example are mdi cated as follows m color They are joined m a head to tail fashion... 

Several substituted pyridines have been examined using the degassed Raney nickel, and the results are summarized in Table I. As all the biaryls obtained formed colored chelates with either ferrous or cuprous ions, they must be derivatives of 2,2 -bipyridine. Structural ambiguities cannot arise with 2,2 -bipyridines derived from 2- and 4-substituted pyridines but 3-substituted pyridines could conceivably give three isomeric 2,2 -bipyridines (e.g., 3, 4, 5). In fact, however, each 3-substituted pyridine so far examined has given only one 2,2 -bipyridine. 

Substitution of the bulky adamantyl group on the C(10) position of the bUiverdin pigment structure leads to the distortion of hehcal conformation and hence the pigment color would shift from blue to red [94]. 

A second kind of electronic defect involves the electron. Let us suppose that the second plane of the cubic lattice has a vacancy instead of a substitutional impurity of differing valency. This makes it possible for the lattice to capture and localize an extraneous electron at the vacancy site. This is shown in the following diagram. The captured electron then endows the solid structure with special optical properties since it ean absorb photon energy. The strueture thus becomes optically active. That is, it absorbs light within a well-defined band and is called a "color-center" since it imparts a specific color to the crystal. 

Indolines, benzoxazole, and benzothiazole are possible as 2-methylene heterocycles. The number of known spirooxazine derivatives is much less than for the spiropyrans. This may be partly due to lack of many substituted o-nitrosonaphthols and partly due to lack of sufficient stability of spiro-oxazines. The structures of parent spirooxazines and the Xmax of their photomerocyanine forms are listed in Table 5. The Xmax of the colored forms of compounds 41-43 are not described in the literature. 

Substituent effects on the are remarkable. Electron-withdrawing groups at the 5 -position, e.g., 5 -nitro-substitution (indoline component), and donor substituent at the 8-position (benzothiopyran component) in 44 leads to a longer wavelength shift. As the polarity of the solvent increases, the max of the colored form of spiroindolinobenzothiopyran results in hypsochromic shift. This can be interpreted as the existence of a polar structural component of the colored form in the ground state. Kinetic study has suggested that the zwitterionic structure largely contributes to the colored form of 6-nitrospiroindolinobenzothiopyran, as well as spiropy-rans.97 Based on H-NMR and X-ray analysis,98 99 the existence of an... 

There is a wide diversity of chemical structures of anthraquinone colorants. Many anthraquinone dyes are found in nature, perhaps the best known being alizarin, 1,2-dihydroxyanthraquinone, the principal constituent of madder (see Chapter 1). These natural anthraquinone dyes are no longer of significant commercial importance. Many of the current commercial range of synthetic anthraquinone dyes are simply substituted derivatives of the anthraquinone system. For example, a number of the most important red and blue disperse dyes for application to polyester fibres are simple non-ionic anthraquinone molecules, containing substituents such as amino, hydroxy and methoxy, and a number of sul-fonated derivatives are commonly used as acid dyes for wool. 

First, we examined the efficiency of the initiation process. A solution of buthyllithium was added to a THF solution of 7 at -70°C. The color of the solution turned to red immediately and a strong ESR signal was observed with a well separated hyperfme structure. The observed radical species was identified as the anion radical of 2-butyl-l,l,2,2-tetramethyldisilanyl-substituted biphenyl by computational simulation as well as by comparison with the spectra of a model compound. The anion radical should be a product of a single electron transfer (SET) process from buthyllithium to the monomer. Since no polymeric product was obtained under the above-mentioned conditions, the SET process is an undesired side reaction of the initiation and one of the reasons why more higher molecular weight polymer was observed than expected. ... 

Radialenes which are structurally related to 44, i.e. cyclopropanes bearing two quinoid and another acceptor-substituted methylene substituent, were obtained by condensation of bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)cyclopropenones with active methylene compounds, followed by oxidation (Scheme 6)19. Radialenes 45a-f are brilliantly colored solids that are blue or blue-violet in solution but appear metallic gold or red in reflected light. Instead... 

Platination of the N3 position in 1-substituted uracil and thymine derivatives requires proton abstraction and usually occurs only at high pH, but the Pt-N3 bond, once formed, is thermodynamically stable (log K 9.6) [7]. Platinum binding to N3 increases the basicity of 04, which becomes an additional binding site leading to di- and trinuclear complexes. A list of X-ray structurally characterized species is given by Lippert [7]. Pt complexes of uracil and thymine can form intensely colored adducts (e.g. platinum pyrimidine blues), which show anticar-cinogenic activity analogously to the monomeric species [7].
