Herein, we report the hydroxybenzazole (HBX) containing azo dyes for "linear and non-linear optical" (NLO) applications. These bi-heterocyclic dyes have HBX scaffold (decorated with ESIPT core) and connected to another thiazole moietiy through azo bond. In DMF and DMSO, dyes are "emissive in yellow-red region" and "large Stokes shift" in the range of 62-121 nm were observed.

These heterocyclic azo dyes are decorated with 'separate ESIPT core' and show emission in seven solvents of different polarity. After application on polyester fabric, "very good to excellent" light and washing fastness properties were observed.

Synthesized compounds were evaluated for antibacterial activities on four different strains ( and ) and antifungal activity on one strain () by using 'micro-broth dilution method' (MIC in µg/mL). All compounds showed excellent antibacterial activity for and strains, as well as an antifungal activity for , compared to standard Ciprofloxacin and Fluconazole, respectively.

The newly synthesized compounds were evaluated for invitro antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia Coli strains by Resazurin microtiter assay method (REMA). The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC in μg/mL) were used to express the antibacterial activities.
