The application discloses an oil-soluble
yellow dye shown in formula A, a preparation method thereof and application of the oil-soluble
yellow dye as a colorant in a non-aqueous
solvent, and has the following advantages: (1) raw materials are simple and easy to obtain, cost is low, a synthesis process is simple, and industrialization is easy; (2) a product with rich types and complex composition can be easily obtained by adjusting a halogenated
hydrocarbon type and
reaction conditions, and remarkable advantages are possessed in
performance control and formula security; (3) the product shows good
solubility in various organic solvents, can be well dissolved at low concentration and
high concentration, and has good application prospect in ink, paint and
polymer coloring; wherein R1 is H or a C2-C12 even carbon straight-chain or branched-chain
alkane, R2 is H or a C2-C12 even carbon straight-chain or branched-chain
alkane, and R1 and R2 cannot be H simultaneously.
