Thioxanthone-based N-phthalimidoamino acid ammonium salt (thioxanthen-DBU) as a photocaged base was synthesized and characterized. The photochemical properties and initiation mechanism were analyzed. It was found that the compound absorbs over the UV and visible region with relatively high absorption coefficients. Furthermore, the covalent binding of N-phthalimidoamino acid and type II chromophores (thioxanthone, TX) remarkably improved the photoreactivity. Specifically, in combination with a benzoyl peroxide initiator, thioxanthen-DBU was able to initiate the amine-mediated redox photopolymerization of trimethylol propane triacrylate (TMPTA), and an excellent photopolymerization profile was obtained.
