The new synthesized compounds were identified by elemental analysis, IR and 1H NMR. The UV visible absorption spectra of dyes are also reported. %K Quinone %K Carbonitrile %K Quinolinium %K Meso substituted %K Cyanine like-dyes %K Spectral behavior %U http://www.eurjchem.com/index.php/eurjchem/article/view/699
