New azo dyes (1a-b) were produced by the azo coupling of 2-nitro-1,4-phenylenediamine with 5-chlorosalicylaldehyde and 5-chloro-2-hydroxyaniline. Corresponding Schiff base derivatives (2a-b) bearing conjugated benzimidazole and imidazole moieties were obtained via the condensation reaction of these dyes with 2-aminobenzimidazole and 4-imidazolecarboxaldehyde. Their structures were identified by IR, 1H/13C NMR, mass and UV–Vis spectroscopies and microanalysis. Chromic (solvato-, acido-, thermo-) and photoluminescence behaviour of compounds 2a and 2b were evaluated depending on their donor–π–acceptor molecular system and intramolecular proton tautomerism. Electronic absorption and photoluminescence spectra of 2a and 2b were recorded in DMSO, DMF and CHCl3. 2a emitted turquoise luminescence in DMSO and DMF, and white luminescence in CHCl3, while 2b emitted strong turquoise luminescence in only CHCl3.
