The invention relates to a
benzophenone fragment and p-nitrodiphenylethene fragment-containing tree like visible light
photoinitiator and synthesis and application thereof, belonging to the field of photoinitiators. The tree like visible light
photoinitiator comprises the typical chemical structural general formulae shown in the description, wherein n1 and n2 in molecular structural formulae (I) and (II) represent 1-6, wherein in the molecular
structural formula (I), the (I) is prepared through reacting 4-(4'-bromohydrocarbylstyyl)
nitrobenzene with 3,5-dihydroxylbenzyl
alcohol to obtain a product of 3,5-di((4'-nitrobenzenevinyl)
benzene alkoxide)
benzyl alcohol, and then reacting the 3,5-di((4'-nitrobenzenevinyl)
benzene alkoxide)
benzyl alcohol with 4-bromomethylbenzophenone under alkaline conditions; and in the molecular
structural formula (II), the (II) is prepared through reacting 4-bromohydrocarbylbenzophenone with 3,5-dihydroxylbenzyl
alcohol to obtain a product of 3,5-di((4'-benzoyl)
benzene alkoxide)
benzyl alcohol, and then reacting the 3,5-di((4'-benzoyl)benzene alkoxide)benzyl
alcohol with 4-(4'-hydroxylstyryl)
nitrobenzene under alkaline conditions. The
benzophenone fragment and p-nitrodiphenylethene fragment-containing tree like visible light
photoinitiator has the maximum absorption in a visible light region and can be used as the photoinitiator to form a photosensitive
system together with a
triethanolamine auxiliary agent and used for visible light
polymerization of
alkene monomers in a solution or used as photocuring materials.
