Photosensitiser must be activated by light, different photosensitisers are activated at various wavelengths. Azaphthalocyanines absorb at longer wavelengths. Some of them can be prepared by cyclotetramerization of substituted quinoxaline-2,3-dicarbonitrils. Preparation of 6,7-bis(tert-butylthio)quinoxaline-2,3- dicarbonitril consists of five steps. In the first step, polarity of 2H-bezimidazole is inverted (prepared by condensation of ortho-phenylenediamine with spirocyclohexanone), by process of "umpolung". As a consequence, it is possible to add nucleophile on aromatic ring. In the second step, sodium-1,1-dimethylethanthiolate reacts with 2H-benzimidazole-2- spirocyclohexane and the mixture of four products arises. Only 5,6-bis(tert-butylthio)-2H- benzimidazole-2-spirocyclohexane is important for synthesis 6,7-bis(tert- butylthio)quinoxaline-2,3-dicarbonitril. I focused in my work on optimisation of this reaction to obtain higher yields of this product. Attempts to synthesize of...
