This study reports the synthesis of two novel thiazolylazo dyes (4 and 5) bearing coumarin-thiophene moiety. UV-Vis spectroscopy was used to investigate the photophysical properties of 4 and 5 in different solvents. The dyes displayed good potential for hydroxide sensing in different mediums.

The fluorescence measurements at different temperatures indicated that quenching mechanism of enzymes by Ci was static. ΔH and ΔS data pointed out electrostatic/hydrophobic interactions with pepsin, and also hydrogen bonds/van der Waals forces with trypsin of Ci.

And also, the formation of these complexes were confirmed by magnetic moment and conductivity measurements. The photophysical properties of CTS were studied and it was observed that the Schiff base has a sensitivity to CN, F, and AcO anions.

A series of D-π-A chromophores based on allylidenemalononitrile electron-withdrawing group was designed. The influence of the amino-electron-donating group on the photophysical properties was studied. These compounds, highly thermally stable, exhibit orange-red emission in solution and in solid state.

The dyes include the dicyanomethylene group as an acceptor and different -substituted alkylamines as donors. Morever as a proton-sensitive group a pyridin-2-yl substituent was attached to the -position of the phenyl moiety in both series of compounds.

A new coumarin-thiazole based Schiff base (Ligand, L) and its Pd(II), Pt(II) complexes; ([Pd(L)] and [Pt(L)]), were synthesized and characterized using spectrophotometric techniques (NMR, IR, UV-vis, LC-MS), magnetic moment, and conductivity measurements. A single crystal X-ray analysis for only L was done. The crystals of L have monoclinic crystal system and P21/c space group.

Protonation of aminophenyl-BQ at the electron-donor amine moiety converts the nitrogen lone pair into a σ bond and the HOMO into a lower-lying orbital that is no longer involved in the excitation, thereby rationalizing the suppression of the charge transfer. An S1-T1 seam between the vertically excited Franck-Condon (FC) point and the S1 equilibrium geometry favors intersystem crossing (ISC).

In this study, the synthesis of four new phenylazo indole dyes (dye 1-4) were carried out by diazotization of 4-aminoacetophenone and coupling with various 2- and 1,2-disubstituted indole derivatives. The dyes were characterized by UV-vis, FT-IR, (1)H NMR, HRMS and X-ray single crystal diffraction methods. Azo-hydrazone tautomeric bahavior of the dyes in different solvents (DMSO, methanol, acetic acid and chloroform) was investigated by using (1)H NMR and UV-vis results.
