Abstract
New asymmetrical trimethine cyanine dyes (5a-d and 6a-c) and merocyani ne dyes (7a,b and 8) incorporating naphthoquinone in conjunction with thiazole/oxazole and/or oxadiazine moieties were prepared. The visible absorption spectra of (5b) was investigated in polar, nonpolar and mi xed solvents as well as in aq buffer solutions. Molecular: complex for mation with ethanol was verified by mixed solvent studies. The variati on of absorbance with pH was utilized for the determination of the pKa value for a selected dye. Bactericidal and fungicidal activity of sel ected cyanines (5b, 6b and 8) were determined.
