Azo-hydrazone tautomerism observed from UV-vis spectra by pH control and metal-ion complexation for two heterocyclic disperse yellow dyes.

The azo-hydrazone tautomerism of two pyridine-2,6-dione based Disperse Yellow dyes has been achieved by pH control and metal-ion complexation, respectively, which is evidenced by UV-visible spectra using pH-titration, (1)H NMR and X-ray single-crystal diffraction techniques for two dyes and one neutral dinuclear dye-metal complex. pH-titration experiments under strong and weak acidic conditions (HCl and HOAc) as well as strong and weak alkaline conditions (NaOH and ammonia) demonstrate that there is an equilibrium between the azo (HL(1-A) and HL(2-A)) and hydrazone (HL(1-H) and HL(2-H)) tautomers for two dyes in solution but the hydrazone form is dominant under conventional conditions. The hydrazone proton is also observed in the (1)H NMR spectra of HL(1-H) and HL(2-H) which can be verified by the hydrogen-deuterium exchange and the presence of cooperative six-membered intramolecular hydrogen rings involving the hydrazone proton in their X-ray single-crystal structures. Moreover, the azo-hydrazone tautomerism is evidenced by the formation of a novel neutral dinuclear dye-metal complex Cu(2)(L(2-A))(4), where all the ligands are in the azo form and two types of coordination modes are present for four L(2-A) ligands. Namely, the side two ligands serve as the bidentate capping ligands, while the middle ones act as the quadridentate bridging ligands linking adjacent Cu(II) centers in a reverse fashion.
