Abstract:
A novel bisazomethine Schiff base was synthesised by the condensation of 3-hydroxyquinoxaline-2-
carboxaldehyde and 2,3-diaminomaleonitrile. 1H NMR, 13C NMR, HPLC and FT-IR studies revealed that
the compound exists in two major tautomeric forms. The Schiff base exhibits positive absorption and
fluorescent solvatochromism and displays dual fluorescence with large stoke shifts. Cyclic voltammetric
analysis of the compound in 1:1 methanol–THF was influenced by scan rate. Thermal analysis of the
compound was undertaken using TG–DTA and DSC

Abstract:
The Schiff base, 3-hydroxyquinoxaline-2-carboxalidine-4-aminoantipyrine, was synthesized by the
condensation of 3-hydroxyquinoxaline-2-carboxaldehyde with 4-aminoantipyrine. HPLC, FT-IR and NMR
spectral data revealed that the compound exists predominantly in the amide tautomeric form and
exhibits both absorption and fluorescence solvatochromism, large stokes shift, two electron quasireversible
redox behaviour and good thermal stability, with a glass transition temperature of 104 oC. The
third-order non-linear optical character was studied using open aperture Z-scan methodology employing
7 ns pulses at 532 nm. The third-order non-linear absorption coefficient, b, was 1.48 x 10-6 cm W-1 and
the imaginary part of the third-order non-linear optical susceptibility, Im c(3), was 3.36x10-10 esu. The
optical limiting threshold for the compound was found to be 340 MW cm-2.
