Novel structures of an near-infrared (NIR) tetraarylazadipyrromethene (aza-BODIPY) series have been prepared. We designed the core structure containing two amido groups at the para-position of the aromatic rings. The amido group was incorporated to secure insensitivity to pH and to ensure a bathochromic shift to the NIR region. Forty members of aza-BODIPY compounds were synthesized by substitut...

This paper presents an overview of textile wastewater treatment by catalytic ozonation, highlighting the parameters process and accompanying mechanisms. Since more than 800,000 tons dyes are produced annually thousands cubic meters highly polluted have been emitted into environment every day, this issue has become environmental concern. Due to high oxidative potential ozone (2.08 V) hydroxyl ra...

Different types of molecular and nanoscale fluorophores are being developed for fluorescent imaging of live cells. Here we present their novel types and novel compositions. The dyes incorporated into nanostructures and their metal coordination complexes as well as carbon nanodots penetrate easily into the cell with the lack of toxicity, forming stable images. They are prospective for further fu...

Two novel BODIPY (pyrromethene, PM) dyes containing N-ethyl carbazole at the meso position are synthesized and their photophysical properties in different solvents and the photochemical stabilities and laser performances in n-heptane are investigated. The n-heptane solution of the dyes was used as a gain medium in a constructed narrow band dye laser, pumped by a Q-switched (10 Hz) frequency-dou...

A general approach to the synthesis of novel boronated azo dyes derived from undecahydro-closo-dodecaborates as a convenient preparation of dye labeled for boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is described. The method focused on the synthesis of two classes of dye-labeled dodecaborate anions. One is the reaction of (CH3)4NB12H11NH3- with NaNO2 in acetonitrile/water to give its diazonium salt wh...

The century-old fluoresceins and rhodamines persist as flexible scaffolds for fluorescent and fluorogenic compounds. Extensive exploration of these xanthene dyes has yielded general structure-activity relationships where the development of new probes is limited only by imagination and organic chemistry. In particular, replacement of the xanthene oxygen with silicon has resulted in new red-shift...

Synthetic dyes are extensively used in wide range of industries amongst which textile processing industries are the major consumers. Large amounts of dyes are lost in wastewaters of these industries during dyeing and subsequent washing steps of textiles. These dyes are resistant to de gradation by conventional wastewater treatment plants and are released into environment untreated thus causing ...

Lipid-based biomarkers for research and diagnosis are rapidly emerging to unpack the basis of person-to-person and population variations in disease susceptibility, drug and nutritional responses, to name but a few. Hence, with the advent of MALDI Mass Spectrometry Imaging, lipids have begun to be investigated intensively. However, lipids are highly mobile during tissue preparation, and are solu...

in this study, removal of methylene blue (mb) and maxilon blue sl 200% (mb sl) dyes from aqueous solutions by using raw clay (rc) of nevsehir (turkey) vicinity and ultrasonic-acid modified clay (mc) was investigated. adsorption was carried out with 500 mg/l mb and 50 mg/l for mb sl in terms of different adsorbent dosages, contact time, solution ph, temperature and stirring speed. the fitting of...
