Abstract
A TAF compound that can have substitutions on either of the two benzene rings and/or the C-5 position of the triazole to alter the properties of the TAF compound can be wherein X can be H, an aromatic group, a hetero aromatic group, an alkyl or any substituted alkyl group, ketone, aldyhyde, carboxylic acid derivatives; Y1, Y2, Y3, Y4, and Y5 can be one or more of H, aromatic groups, hetero aromatic groups, alkyl or any substituted alkyl groups, ketone, aldyhyde, or carboxylic acid derivatives; and Z1, Z2, Z3, Z4 and Z5 can be one or more of H aromatic groups, hetero aromatic groups, alkyl or any substituted alkyl groups, ketone, aldyhyde, or carboxylic acid derivatives. Included is a preparation of the TAF compound and use as a photoactive and/or catalyst.
Claims20
A method comprising preparing a compound of the formula:
- from bifunctional 1,2,3-triazoles with Zn(N03)2 treatment wherein about 1-5 mmol of the bifunctional 1,2,3-triazoles in solution can be added to about 1-5 mmol of Zn(N03)2 in solution at wherein the Zn(N03)2 can be between about 0.1 mmol to about 2 mol in concentration wherein the solvents for the bifunctional 1,2,3-triazoles and the Zn(N03)2 can be one or more of water, acetonitrile, dimethyl sulfoxide, dimethylformamide, diethylformamide, an alcohol, and tetrahydrofuran and the solutions are kept at an effective temperature for an effective time to prepare the compound of the formula:
- wherein X can be H, an aromatic group, a hetero aromatic group, an alkyl, any substituted alkyl group, ketone, aldyhyde, or carboxylic acid derivative, Y1, Y2, Y3, Y4, and Y5 can be one or more of H, aromatic groups, hetero aromatic groups, alkyl, any substituted alkyl groups, ketone, aldyhyde, or carboxylic acid derivative, and Z1, Z2, Z3, Z4 and Z5 can be one or more of H, aromatic groups, hetero aromatic groups, alkyl, any substituted alkyl groups, ketone, aldyhyde, or carboxylic acid derivative.
