Abstract

Three new phenothiazine organic dyes containing thiophene, 3-(5-(3-(4-(bis (4-methoxy phenyl) amino) phenyl)-10-octyl-10H-phenothiazin-7-yl) thiophen-2-yl)-2-cyanoacrylic acid (P1), 3-(5-(3-(4-(diphenylamino) phenyl)-10-octyl-10H-phenothiazin-7-yl) thiophen-2-yl)-2- cyanoacrylic acid (P2) and 2-cyano-3-(5-(10-octyl-3-(4-(2, 2-diphenylvinyl) phenyl)-10H- phenothiazin-7-yl) thiophen-2-yl) acrylic acid (P3) were designed and synthesized as ...
