A series of new hetarylazo indole dyes were synthesized by azo coupling of 2-phenyl-, 2-methyl-, and 1-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-indole with diazonium salts derived from 5-methylsulfanyl-1H-1,2,4-triazol-3-amine, 1H-1,2,4-triazol-3- amine, 5-methylisoxazol-3-amine, and 5-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-thiol. The dyes were characterized by the IR spectra, electronic absorption spectra in the UV and visible regions, and 1H NMR and mass spectra. The effects of solvent nature, acidity of the medium, temperature, and concentration on the electronic absorption spectra in the visible region and the dependence of the color of the dyes on the nature of heterocyclic fragment were examined. © 2007 Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.
