A number of 4-aryl- and 4-alkynyl-substituted 6H-1,2-oxazines 8 and 9 have been prepared in good yields via cross coupling reactions of halogenated precursors 2, which in turn are easily accessible by bromination of 6H-1,2-oxazines 1. Lewis-acid promoted reaction of 1,2-oxazine 9c with 1-hexyne provided alkynyl-substituted pyridine derivative 12 thus demonstrating the potential of this approach...

The organic molecule in the title hydrate, C(9)H(9)N(3)O(3)·H(2)O, was obtained by the condenstation of salicylic aldehyde with urea in acetonitrile. The oxazine ring adopts a slightly distorted sofa conformation, with the N atom deviating from the plane passing through the other atoms of the ring by 0.267 (2) Å. The crystal structure displays inter-molecular N-H⋯O and O-H⋯O hydrogen bonding.

A series of novel naphthalene attached bis-oxazines were synthesized and characterized. The bis-oxazines were studied by VT-NMR analysis to assess the possibility of conformational twist. The bis-oxazine prepared from (l)-methylvalinate show a helical conformational twist in the single crystal X-ray analysis. Three isomers of bis-oxazines were prepared from chiral α-methylbenzyl amines, the mes...

A versatile molecule is described that performs as a nondestructible read-out optical-storage molecular memory. This molecular memory is composed of two distinct molecules that are chemically bonded to each other to form a single molecule with unique properties. One component is a photochromic fulgimide, and the other is a strongly fluorescing oxazine dye. This composite molecule was specifical...

In the current work we have investigated the ability of time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) to predict the absorption spectra of a series of oxazine dyes and the effect of solvent on the accuracy of these predictions. Based on the results of this study, it is clear that for the series of oxazine dyes an accurate prediction of the excitation energy requires the inclusion of solvent...

The Langmuir – Blodgett (LB) method is one of the useful techniques to prepare ultra-thin films with precise organization of embedded dye cations. The main limitations for the preparation of LB films is that the surfactants, building blocks of the LB films, must be amphiphiles and not soluble in water. In our study we used laser dye cation (rhodamine) with long alkyl chain in the structure, whi...
