Synthesis, nature of electronic transitions, and absorption spectra of the dye based on 4-(methyl-1-{2-[4-(1-methyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinolin-3-yl)phenyl]-2-oxoethyl}pyridinium bromide

Resumo

The reaction of 3-(4-bromoacetylphenyl)-1-methylquinolin-2(1Н)-one with pyridine and 4-methylpyridine has afforded the corresponding pyridinium salts. Condensation of 4-methyl-1-{2-[4-(1-methyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinolin-3-yl)phenyl]-2-oxoethyl}pyridinium bromide with 4-dimethylaminobenzaldehyde has given a new biscyanine dye, 1-{1-[4-(1,2-dihydro-1-methyl-2-oxo-3-quinolinyl)benzoyl]-2-[4-(dimethylamino)-phenyl]ethynyl}-4-{2-[4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]ethynyl}pyridinium bromide. Its electronic spectrum has been analyzed, and quantum-chemical simulation of spatial and electronic structure of its possible isomers has been performed.
