Participants

Reaction Steps

To a dry vial was added the salt 6 (708 mg, 2 mmol), 4-dibutylaminobenzaldehyde (467 mg, 2 mmol) and the vial was purged with N2. Ethanol (10 ml) was added via syringe, followed by piperidine (1 ml). Within 5 minutes the color began changing to deep red. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 12 hours, concentrated and the salt was precipitated with dry ether. Following solvent removal, the salt was again dissolved in EtOH (8 ml) and precipitated with ether. The resulting fluorophore was filtered under a nitrogen atmosphere and dried. Yield: 1.04 g (91%).
