Color Chemistry: Syntheses, Properties, and Applications of Organic Dyes and
Pigments
3rd, Revised Edition
ISBN: 3-906390-23-3
Hardcover
647 pages
January 2004
Description
This new edition of the classical text is thoroughly
updated and rewritten, with special attention given to those topic areas that
have experienced the most research activity and industrial development since
publication of the second edition. An extensive new section devoted to synthetic
polyenes developed during the last decade, including poly(p-phenylenevinylenes),
that have shown promising electro-optical properties has also be added, while
the chapter on aza[18]annulenes is expanded to include improved and
sophisticated synthetic approaches to the phthalocyanines and porphyrins, as
well as the application of these compounds in functional dyes and pigments.
Research and development activities in the discovery of new dyes for coloration
is described in the sections on dispersed, reactive, and sulfur dyes, as well as
in new chapters covering carbonyl and the diketopyrrolo pyrrole (DPP) family of
pigments. Additionally, this edition contains a first review of the limited
number of published investigations of black colorants.
A significantly expanded successor to the highly successful second edition,
destined to become a classical reference work for researchers in this exciting
and important subdiscipline of chemistry.

Reviews
"Recommended as essential reading not only to color
chemists in all stages of their careers, but to chemists unilaterally. They will
find it interesting, informative, stimulating and very readable." Dyes and
Pigments
"By confining the discussion to topics of current technical importance and using
a mechanistic organic approach, an informative overall balance is achieved..."
Chemistry in Britain
"This book will stand as the definitive treatment of the subject for years to
come...Professor Zollingerīs important contribution to the scientific literature
belongs in every serious collection." Textile Research Journal
"It would be difficult to find anything in the book that
could be criticized from a scientific standpoint. It is valuable both for
getting an overview of the field of color chemistry and as a mine of information
for the dyestuffs chemist. Many scientists in other areas such as
biochemistry and medicine are increasingly concerned with the use of
lightabsorbing systems in their research, and I recommend this book unreservedly
to everyone interested in the subject. It belongs in every chemistry-orientated
library, and also in the personal bookshelves of every chemist." Angew.
Chem., Int. Ed. 2004, 43, 5291
