Synthesis and spectroscopic characterisation of N-alkyl quaternary ammonium salts typical precursors of cyanines
Pardal,Ramos,Santos,Reis,Almeida
, p. 320 - 330 (2002)
The synthesis and spectroscopic characterisation of some representative N-alkyl-substituted quaternary ammonium salts derived from benzothiazole, benzoxazole, benzo-selenazole, indole and quinoline are described. These heterocyclic salts, bearing an activated methyl group in the 2-position in relation to the nitrogen atom and N-methyl, -pentyl, -hexyl and -decyl chains, are typical precursors of cyanine dyes.
Delocalized cationic azo dyes containing a thiazole moiety

Several new delocalized cationic azo dyes incorporating a bathochromic thiazole moiety have been prepared in moderate to good yields. The synthesis involved the Knoevenagel condensation of an intermediate azo compound, bearing a terminal formyl group, with methylenic bases generated in situ from benzoazolium and quinolinium salts. All dyes display strong absorption around 700 nm and have shown negative solvatochromic behaviour.
