Thioxanthene Dye Structure - SbF₆⁻ Salt with Chloro and Dodecyloxy Groups #1442486 (License: Personal Use)

This image displays the 2D skeletal formula of a cationic thioxanthene-based dye, where a sulfur-containing tricyclic core is substituted with a chlorine atom at position 9, a dodecyloxy chain at position 1, and a diphenylsulfonium group at position 3. The counterion is hexafluoroantimonate (SbF₆⁻), commonly employed to enhance solubility and stability in non-aqueous media. Such dyes are valued for their strong visible absorption and applications in photoredox catalysis and organic optoelectronics.

Used in academic and industrial chemistry resources-e.g., journal articles, patent illustrations, or product datasheets-for depicting novel organic dyes, particularly in photoredox catalysis, dye-sensitized solar cells, or as fluorescent probes. Matches user intent seeking structural clarity for synthesis, characterization, or application design.
