Abstract
Several 1,3-diphenyl- and 1,3,5-triphenyl-2-pyrazolines containing a heteroaromatic substituent (viz. imidazol-1-yl, pyrazol-1-yl and 1,2,4- triazol-1-yl) have been synthesized. When compared with their unsubstituted analogues, these compounds (a) absorbed more intensely at a longer wavelength, (b) exhibited greater fluorescence in a polar solvent (methanol) and (c) possessed similar stability to light. ��� Large-scale irradiations of two 1,3,5-triphenyl-2-pyrazolines (viz. unsubstituted and that containing the 1,2,4-triazol-1-yl substituent) in methanolic solution revealed that, although dehydrogenation of the 2-pyrazoline ring was the major photochemical reaction, significant oxidation to the corresponding chalcone also occurred. In addition, phenol was detected among the irradiation products. ��� Several sulphonated analogues of the abovementioned pyrazolines were prepared. When applied to wool, these compounds exhibited excellent fluorescent whitening properties.Keywords
