It is available at far lower cost than parent azulene.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eElectronic structure of the azulene chromophore.\u003c\/strong\u003e The azulene chromophore is a non-alternant aromatic hydrocarbon. Its π-electron density is distributed unevenly across the two rings, so the highest occupied and lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals occupy different regions and overlap little. The S₀–S₁ gap is therefore unusually small: the transition falls in the visible, and the compound is blue — unlike its colourless, alternant isomer naphthalene. The parent azulene has a permanent dipole moment of 0.80–1.08 D depending on the method of determination, rare for a hydrocarbon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA polarised, aromatic-ion framework.\u003c\/strong\u003e Electron density shifts from the seven-membered ring toward the five-membered ring, so the chromophore is described as a six-π-electron tropylium cation fused to a six-π-electron cyclopentadienyl anion within one neutral molecule. Both rings thereby attain aromatic stabilisation, and the charge separation makes the five-membered ring the nucleophilic site.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAnti-Kasha photophysics.\u003c\/strong\u003e The azulene chromophore violates Kasha's rule. The gap between the second and first excited singlet states is about 14000 cm⁻¹ in the parent, which suppresses internal conversion from S₂ and produces fluorescence from S₂ rather than S₁. That anomalous upper-state emission is a reason the framework is studied in photophysics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeedstock for substituted azulenes.\u003c\/strong\u003e Azulenes are potent nucleophiles for electrophilic aromatic substitution, the 1- and 3-positions being the most reactive. In guaiazulene C-1 already bears a methyl, so C-3 is the free electrophilic site, while the acidity of the protons on the C-4 methyl group provides a separate, regioselective route: the guaiazulene C-4 aldehyde, a building block for C-4-alkenylated and further derivatives. The inactive C-2 position can be reached through a boryl intermediate. Reaction with cationic iron-carbonyl diene complexes couples guaiazulene at C-3 in yields to 98%; decomplexation and onward chemistry give 1-substituted azulenes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePrecursor for functional materials.\u003c\/strong\u003e Oxidative polymerisation with earth-abundant iron oxidants converts guaiazulene to poly(guaiazulene), a low-bandgap conjugated polymer for optoelectronic applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 28px;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"background: #002147; padding: 10px 20px; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003e  \u003ch3 style=\"margin: 0; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 0.70em; font-weight: 700; letter-spacing: 0.12em; text-transform: uppercase; color: #fff;\"\u003eShipping Destinations\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"border: 1px solid #e4e8f0; border-top: none; padding: 12px 16px; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 0.95em;\"\u003e\u003cul style=\"margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style: none;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 5px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #f0f0f0;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"display: inline-block; width: 7px; height: 7px; background: #002147; border-radius: 50%; margin-right: 10px; vertical-align: middle;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eEU \u0026amp; UK: Priority delivery, 2–5 business days.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 5px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #f0f0f0;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"display: inline-block; width: 7px; height: 7px; background: #002147; border-radius: 50%; margin-right: 10px; vertical-align: middle;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eUnited States (DDP): 3–7 business days, duties and taxes prepaid.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 5px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #f0f0f0;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"display: inline-block; width: 7px; height: 7px; background: #002147; border-radius: 50%; margin-right: 10px; vertical-align: middle;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eEFTA Countries (DDP): 3–7 business days, duties and taxes prepaid.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 5px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #f0f0f0;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"display: inline-block; width: 7px; height: 7px; background: #002147; border-radius: 50%; margin-right: 10px; vertical-align: middle;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eWorldwide: 7–14 business days, selected locations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"NorrChemica™","offers":[{"title":"1 g","offer_id":53675301372241,"sku":"NOR-489849-1g","price":24.2,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"2 g","offer_id":53675301405009,"sku":"NOR-489849-2g","price":34.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 g","offer_id":53675301437777,"sku":"NOR-489849-5g","price":54.2,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 g","offer_id":53675301470545,"sku":"NOR-489849-10g","price":94.2,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"25 g","offer_id":53675301503313,"sku":"NOR-489849-25g","price":198.2,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"50 g","offer_id":54327134486865,"sku":"NOR-489849-50g","price":364.2,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 g","offer_id":54327134519633,"sku":"NOR-489849-100g","price":598.2,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0954\/6357\/1793\/files\/NorrChemica_Guaiazulene.png?v=1782683631","url":"https:\/\/www.norrchemica.com\/products\/guaiazulene-cas-489-84-9","provider":"NorrChemica","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
