Synthesis of novel tri-arm star shaped 1,3,5-triazine hydrazones from 2,4,6-tris(4-acetylphenoxy)-1,3,5-triazine core

Abstract

A series of novel symmetric triazine hydrazones [N₃C₃(-OC₆H₄-p-C(CH₃)=N-NH-C(O)-C₆H₄-p-X)₃] (X = H, Br, Cl, F, OH, OCH₃, CH₃, NO₂, NH₂) were prepared in excellent yields by a three-fold condensation reaction of 2,4,6- tris(4-acetylphenoxy)-1,3,5-triazine with p-substituted benzoic acid hydrazides [NH₂-NH-C(O)-C₆H₄-p-X]. The structures were confirmed by FT-IR, ¹H, ¹³C, 2D-HMQC NMR and mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF).
