Acenaphthoquinoxaline Derivatives as Dental Photoinitiators of Acrylates Polymerization

• Zachary Long

A collection of dyes based mostly on the acenaphthoquinoxaline skeleton was synthesized. Their construction was modified by introducing electron-withdrawing and electron-donating teams, growing the variety of conjugated double bonds and the quantity and place of nitrogen atoms, in addition to the association of fragrant rings (linear or angular). The dyes have been investigated as a…
