Description
Summary:The Schiff bases N-(5-phenylthiazole-2-yl)-2-hydroxylnaphthaldehydehydrazone (1), N-(4′-chloro-5-phenylthiazole-2-yl)-2-hydroxylnaphthaldehydehydrazone (2), and N-(4′-nitro-5-phenylthiazole-2-yl)-2-hydroxylnaphthaldehydehydrazone (3) were synthesized. These compounds were characterized by using IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and MS. The photochromism of the compounds was investigated by IR and UV-visible spectrometry which is time variable under irradiation of 254 nm UV light. The thermochromism of the compounds was studied using temperature-variable IR, UV-visible spectrometry, TG, and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The results suggested that compound 2 showed thermochromism properties and compounds 2 and 3 displayed photochromism properties. The relationship between the substituents species and photochromic or thermochromic properties of these compounds was revealed as well.
