Synthesis and Spectral Study of a New Family of 2,5-Diaryltriazoles Having Restricted Rotation of the 5-Aryl Substituent

Efficient synthesis of 2,5-diaryl substituted 4-azido-1,2,3-triazoles by the reaction of sodium azide with dichlorosubstituted diazadienes was demonstrated. The optical properties of the prepared azidotriazoles were studied to reveal a luminescence maximum in the 360−420 nm region. To impr...

Description
Summary:Efficient synthesis of 2,5-diaryl substituted 4-azido-1,2,3-triazoles by the reaction of sodium azide with dichlorosubstituted diazadienes was demonstrated. The optical properties of the prepared azidotriazoles were studied to reveal a luminescence maximum in the 360&#8722;420 nm region. To improve the luminescence quantum yields a family of 4-azido-1,2,3-triazoles bearing <i>ortho</i>-propargyloxy substituents in the 5 position was prepared. Subsequent intramolecular thermal cyclization permits to construct additional triazole fragment and obtain unique benzoxazocine derivatives condensed with two triazole rings. This new family of condensed heterocycles has a flattened heterocyclic system structure to provide more conjugation of the 5-aryl fragment with the triazole core. As a result, a new type of UV/&#8220;blue light-emitting&#8221; materials with better photophysical properties was obtained.
