Abstract
Thiazine dye, methylene blue (MB), oxazine dye, nile blue (NB), and phenazine-based dye, neutral red (NR), bear a similar basic dye skeleton with a distinctively different central heteroatom. All of them are extracted into nonpolar organic solvent from alkaline solution. The role of the heteroatom on the respective dye skeletons and redox potentials of the dyes has been examined to signature the stability of the species in organic solvent and the results have been substantiated through geometry optimization and wave function analysis at the density functional theory level. The effect of solvent polarity on the electronic absorption spectra of the three nonionic benzenoid species has been investigated with an intention to investigate the solvatochromic behavior of these compounds.
