ABSTRACT

A new heterocyclic coupling agent has been produced from the reaction of maleic anhydride and p-aminophenol, namely N-(4-hydroxylpheneyl)maleimide. The coupling agent underwent azo coupling reaction with aromatic amine, which is p-aminophenol to produce a new heterocyclic azo pigment. The pigment was then subjected to solubility, hiding power and light fastness test. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Ultraviolet/Visible (UV/Vis) Spectroscopy, and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (1H-NMR, 13C-NMR) were used to obtain the characteristics and structural features of the pigment.

Keywords: Aromatic amine; heterocyclic azo pigment; N-(4-hydroxylpheneyl)maleimide

ABSTRAK

Satu agen gandingan heterosiklik baru iaitu, N-(4-hydroxylpheneyl)maleimide telah dihasilkan melalui tindak balas antara malik anhidrida dan p-aminofenol. Agen gandingan tersebut kemudian melalui tindak balas gandingan azo dengan amina aromatik, iaitu p-aminofenol untuk menghasilkan pigmen azo heterosiklik baru. Ujian keterlarutan, keupayaan menutupi warna substrak dan ujian tahan luntur cahaya dilakukan terhadap pigmen. Spektroskopi Inframerah (FTIR), Spektroskopi Ultraungu/Nampak (UV/Vis), dan Spektroskopi Resonans Magnetik Nuklear (1H-NMR, 13C-NMR) digunakan untuk mengenalpasti struktur dan ciri-ciri pigmen.

Kata kunci: Amina aromatik; N-(4-hydroxylpheneyl)maleimide; pigmen azo heterosiklik
