Imidazolines are a class of heterocycles derived from imidazoles by reduction of one of the two double bonds. Three isomers are known, 2-imidazoline, 3-imidazoline and 4-imidazoline. 2 and 3-imidazolines contain imine centers, while 4-imidazolines contain alkene groups. The 2-imidazoline group occurs in several drugs. Imidazolines are an important class of compounds found in many natural and medicinal products. These compounds are also used as intermediates in the synthesis of organic molecules. Furthermore, chiral imidazolines are widely used as organic catalysts for the synthesis of various natural and synthetic organic compounds.
The two N atoms in Benzothiadiazole could possibly form intermolecular hydrogen bonding, leading to a more planar backbone. Benzothiadiazole is a strong electron-accepting molecular fragment. By fusing it with thiazole donor-acceptor dyes, near-infrared fluorescence was created. The benzothiadiazole ring is a useful n-type building block for designing electron-transport materials for organic and polymer light-emitting diodes (LEDs). Arene- and heteroarene-fused thiadiazoles have also found use in the design of low-band-gap materials for the construction of organic field-effect transmitters (OFETs), as stable organic radicals, and as one or two photon-absorbing materials for the design of nonlinear near-infrared (NIR) dyes. Benzothiadiazoles acting as the electron-accepting cores have been incorporated into dendrimer-type light-harvesting materials.
