Abstract

AbstractThioxanthone derivatives with additional amino groups (TX‐S‐NH3) are synthesized via a simple esterification reaction between TX‐S‐CH2‐COOH and 2‐methylaminoethanol hydrocarbons in a p‐toluene sulfonic acid medium. The TX‐S‐NH3 is characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, FT‐IR, HRMS, ultraviolet‐visible spectrophotometry, and fluorescence spectroscopy. TX‐S‐NH3 has strong absorption in water and ethanol, and the molar extinction coefficients at 395 nm are 2800 and 2780 mol−1L cm−1, respectively. TX‐S‐NH3 shows a low fluorescence quantum yield of 0.109 in deionized water. The maximum mobility of TX‐S‐NH3 in the photocuring product in ethanol is 12.5%. The double bond conversion of TMPTA cured by TX‐S‐NH3 is 60.7% without co‐initiator. TX‐S‐NH3 has excellent curing effects in UV‐curable ink with a light curing time of only 2.3 s.
