Abstract:
A blue-fluorescence 2,4,6-tris(4-fluorophenyl)-1,3,5-triazine (TFPT) monomer was synthesized with high yield and high purity under mild reaction conditions. The TFPT, which had three active fluoric groups, was facilely incorporated into stable cross-linked fluorescent polymeric nanoparticles (FCPNs) via precipitation polymerization with 6-(4-hydroxyphenyl)pyridazin-3(2H)-one (HPZ). The FCPNs were highly dispersible in water and showed uniform size, intense blue fluorescence, and excellent biocompatibility, making them promising for live cell imaging label applications. This work has the potential to promote the exploitation of novel s-triazine monomers, and to provide a new view of functional crossing-linked polymers based on such monomers.

Ethers can be prepared from organic compounds by various methods. Some of them are discussed below,
Preparation of Ethers by Alcohol Dehydration
In this method, in the presence of protic acids, alcohol dehydrates to produce alkenes and ethers under different conditions. For example, in the presence of sulphuric acid, dehydration of ethanol at 413 K yields ethoxyethane, whereas it yields ethene at 443 K.

02:28Structure and Nomenclature of Ethers
Ethers are organic compounds with an ether functional group which is characterized by an oxygen atom connected to two — identical or different — alkyl, aryl, or vinyl groups. The C–O–C linkage in dimethyl ether — the simplest ether — has an approximately tetrahedral bond angle of 110.3 degrees. The oxygen atom is sp3- hybridized, with the C–O distance being about 140 pm.
