Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Devices for collecting diffuse electromagnetic radiation by the utilisation of fluorescence have been disclosed. The core piece of the collector is a medium which has a higher optical density than the surroundings and which contains centres capable of fluorescence (DE-OS (German Published Specification) No. 2,620,115).
The economic practicability of a light-collecting system is to a large extent determined by the suitability of the dyestuff employed therein as a light converter. Extreme demands are made with regard to the optical quality of this dyestuff [Appl. Phys. 14 123-139 (1977)].

The compounds of the formula (I) which can be used according to the invention as energy converters in light-collecting systems are known (see, for example, German Offenlegungsschrift (German Published Specification) No. 2,844,299) or can be prepared by processes analogous to those disclosed in the literature.
A new process for the preparation of dyestuffs of the formula (I) in which X represents --OR.sub.2 ' is characterized in that compounds of the formula ##STR10## in which
R.sub.1, R.sub.2 ' and T possess the abovementioned meaning, are reacted in a polar organic solvent in a manner which is in itself known (compare DE-OS (German Published Specification) No. 2,844,299) with cyanide salts and, at the same time or subsequently, are treated with oxidising agents.
Suitable polar organic solvents are alcohols, such as methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, 2-methoxy-ethanol, 2-ethoxy-ethanol, ethylene glycol and 2-cyano-ethanol, but especially dipolar aprotic organic solvents, such as dimethylformamide and also pyridine and picolines.
Intermediate isolation of the cyanide adduct is not necessary.
Suitable oxidizing agents are, for example, atmospheric oxygen, hydrogen peroxide, persulphates, perborates, nitric acid, bromine, sulphuryl chloride, lead tetraacetate and chloranil.
The cyanide salts used are advantageously watersoluble cyanides, especially alkali metal cyanides.
The reaction of the cyanide salts is carried out in the temperature range of 0.degree. to 120.degree. C., preferably at 10.degree. to 60.degree. C., and the oxidation is carried out in the range from -5.degree. to 30.degree. C., preferably at 0.degree. to 15.degree. C.
The starting dyestuffs of the formula (IV) are known or can be prepared by known processes.
Relevant patent publications are, for example, U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,014,041, 3,288,801, 3,496,188, 3,816,413, 3,839,333, 3,669,621, 3,704,302, 3,839,351, 3,776,905, 3,968,119, and 4,055,568 and British Pat. Nos. 1,269,004, 1,313,253 and 1,318,975.
The new light-collecting systems, which are shaped bodies of suitable geometry, that is to say optical systems, in which the ratio of the emission surface to the absorption surface can be 1:50 to 1:2,000, are suitable for absorbing incident diffuse electromagnetic radiation and emitting it virtually without loss in a medium which has a higher optical density than the surroundings, as a result of which the bulk of the emitted light remains totally reflected in the medium.
Only that part of the emitted light for which the emission band is substantially free from absorption is usable for the purpose according to the invention.
Therefore, it is appropriate to subject the dyestuffs of the formula (I) to special purification before they are used in the light-collecting systems. In particular, they must be substantially free from impurities which absorb in the long-wave region.
Accordingly, the invention preferentially relates to light-collecting systems which are characterized in that they contain a dyestuff of the formula (I), which, in a 0.05% strength solution, for example in chloroform, measured in a layer thickness of 10 cm, displays an increase in the transmission from 0% to >90% for a change in the wavelength of 25-100 nm and preferably of 25-45 nm.
In advantageous cases, the dyestuffs can be purified by repeated careful crystallization.
Usually, separation by column chromatography on solid carriers such as Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 or SiO.sub.2 is necessary. High degrees of purity are obtained under particularly mild conditions by partition chromatography, for example by steady state (O'Keefe) partition or Craig countercurrent distribution.
The new light-collecting systems can be used, for example, in combination with solar cells for the utilization of solar energy and in scintillators of known types [see, for example, J. B. Birks: The Theory and Practice of Scintillation Counting (Pergamon Press, London 1964); J. Opt. Am. 39, 912 (1949); J. Appl. Phys. 40, 3544 (1969); Nuclear Instruments a. Methods 87, 111-123 (1970) Research Disclosure, page 43 (1977); and DE-OS (German Published Specification) No. 2,629,641)]. In addition, they are suitable, in combination with electronic controls, as display devices with very low energy consumption, and they are also suitable without electronic components for very diverse display, indication and marking purposes, for example in passive display elements, indicators and traffic signs, such as traffic lights.
The light-collecting systems according to the invention contain the dyestuff dissolved in a liquid or a solid and, depending on the field of application of the light-collecting system, very diverse geometric shapes are possible. Suitable solid media, such as are used, for example, for collecting light in combination with solar cells and in passive display elements, are, for example, plastics which transmit light and can be used optically, such as homopolymers and copolymers of acrylic acid (derivatives) or polycarbonates. Furthermore, the light-collecting systems can also contain the dyestuff dissolved in a liquid--for example an alcohol, ketone, halogenated hydrocarbon or ether. Very suitable solvents are, for example, ethanol, propanol, methyl ethyl ketone, acetone, cyclohexanone, chloroform, perchloroethylene and glycol monomethyl ether.
The use of the dyestuffs of the formula (I) in solids is preferred.
The use, according to the invention, of the dyestuffs of the formula (I) is highly advantageous since, in addition to a good quantum yield and a high intensification factor, they display excellent fastness to light and thus ensure that the new light-collecting systems can be used economically.
A particular characteristic is the very large Stokes shift, even with long-wave absorption, coupled with very good fastness to light.
It must be regarded as surprising that the dyestuffs of the formula (I) are suitable for advantageous use in light-collecting systems, since numerous highly fluorescent dyestuffs, such as, for example, rhodamine G, cannot be used. Likewise, the already very extensive demands which are made in respect of the optical quality of laser dyestuffs are in many cases not sufficient to enable the use of these dyestuffs in light-collecting systems to be recommended.





EXAMPLE 1
4 g of 3-(6-methyl-benzoxazolyl)-4-cyano-7-diethylamino-coumarin are dissolved in 60 ml of chloroform and the solution is subjected to chromatography on 800 g of silica gel (Merck). The eluant is 3:1 ethyl acetate/methanol. 3.2 g of product are obtained and this is recrystallized from n-butanol. Melting point: 213.degree. C.
500 mg of the compound are dissolved in 1 l of chloroform and the transmission T is measured in a layer thickness of 10 cm. The transmission is 0% at 595 nm and 94% at 625 nm. The fluorescence quantum yield .PHI. is 0.70, the Stokes shift .DELTA. is 69 nm and the proportion of usable fluoroscence is 65%. The "proportion of usable fluorescence" is understood as meaning the percentage of the fluorescent light originally emitted which is not lost by reabsorption.

EXAMPLE 9
19.2 g of 6-methoxy-3-(benzthiazol-2-yl)-4-cyano-7-ethoxy-coumarin are dissolved in 1,200 ml of dichlorobenzene, and 0.5 g of tonsil is added.

The yellow crystals have a melting point of 302.degree. C.
488 mg of the compound thus obtained are dissolved in 1 l of chloroform and the transmission T is measured in a layer thickness of 10 cm. The transmission is 0% at 550 nm and 92% at 580 nm. The fluorescence quantum yield .PHI. is 1.00, the Stokes shift .DELTA. is 135 nm and the proportion of usable fluorescence is 88%.
