Specifications | MSDS | Literature and Reviews


4,4'-(Benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazole-4,7-diyl)dianiline (BTDA), CAS number 1203707-77-0, has an electron deficient benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazole core with two aniline groups joined at 4,7-positions.

Constructed with 5,11,17,23-tetrakis(p-formyl)-25,26,27,28-tetrahydroxycalix[4]arene (CHO-C4A) as the electron donor and 4,7-bis(4-aminophenyl)-2,1,3-benzothiadiazole (BTDA) as the acceptor, calix[4]arene-derived 2D covalent organic framework COF-C4A-BTD demonstrated high efficacy in removing organic pollutants, such as bisphenol A, rhodamine B, and methylene blue with removal rates of 66%, 85%, and 99% respectively. Another crystalline and porous covalent organic framework prepared from 4,4'-(benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazole-4,7-diyl)dianiline and 1,3,5-triformylphloroglucinol, CoNi–COF-3, achieved an impressive CO generation rate of 2567 μmol g–1 h–1 with a selectivity of 92.2%.

DSABBT, obtained via one-step Schiff reaction of 4-(diethylamino)-salicylaldehyde (DSA) and 4,4'-(benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazole-4,7-diyl)dianiline, showed high singlet oxygen generation capacity and remarkable image-guided photodynamic therapy efficiency. DSABBT nanoparticles is thus a promising candidate for multifunctional photosensitizers to destroy cancer cells and block malignant tumour growth via the production of reactive oxygen species upon irradiation conditions.
