In the present work, the molecular structures of three new azomethine dyes: N-benzylidene-4-((E)-phenyldiazenyl)aniline (PAZB-1), 2-methoxy-4-(((4-((E)- phenyldiazenyl)phenyl)imino)methyl)phenol (PAZB-2) and 2-methoxy-5-((E)-((4-((E)- phenyldiazenyl)phenyl)imino)methyl)phenol (PAZB-8) have been predicted and investigated using Density Functional Theory (DFT) in dimethylformamide (DMF). The geometries of the azomethine dyes were optimized by PBE0/6-31 + G* level of theory. The electronic spectra of these azomethine dyes in a DMF solution was carried out by TDPBE0/6-31 + G* method. After quantum-chemical calculations three new azomethine dyes for optoelectronic applications were synthesized. FT-IR spectra of the title compounds are recorded and discussed. The computed absorption spectral data of the azomethine dyes are in good agreement with the experimental data, thus allowing an assignment of the UV/Vis spectra. On the basis of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and the new synthesized azomethine dyes polarizing films for Visible region of spectrum were developed. The main optical parameters of polarizing PVA-films (Transmittance, Polarization Efficiency and Dichroic Ratio) have been measured and discussed. Anisotropy of thermal conductivity of the PVA-films has been studied. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
