Absorption maxima, table

The absorption maximum of a disubstituted anthraquinone gready depends on the substituents and their positions (Table 2). The 1,4-disubstituted compound shows a remarkable bathochromic shift. The effects of P-substituents on 1,4-dianainoanthraquinones (14) are shown in Table 3. Larger bathochromic shifts are observed with increasing electron-withdrawing abiUty of P-substituents. 

Isothiazole has an absorption maximum in ethanol solution at 244 nm, with a molar absorptivity of 5200. This absorption occurs at a longer wavelength than with pyrazole or isoxazole, the displacement being due to the presence of the sulfur atom. A series of approximate additive wavelength shifts has been drawn up in Table 11 and this should enable prediction of UV maxima of isothiazoles with reasonable accuracy, even for multiply substituted compounds. The longest wavelength band results from a electronic... 

Many other measures of solvent polarity have been developed. One of the most useful is based on shifts in the absorption spectrum of a reference dye. The positions of absorption bands are, in general, sensitive to solvent polarity because the electronic distribution, and therefore the polarity, of the excited state is different from that of the ground state. The shift in the absorption maximum reflects the effect of solvent on the energy gap between the ground-state and excited-state molecules. An empirical solvent polarity measure called y(30) is based on this concept. Some values of this measure for common solvents are given in Table 4.12 along with the dielectric constants for the solvents. It can be seen that there is a rather different order of polarity given by these two quantities. 

PMs are orange-colored, with an absorption maximum at 488 nm (Fig. 9.6). The absorption characteristics and chemiluminescence activities of those compounds are shown in Table 9.4. All PMs are brightly fluorescent in yellow in organic solvents and also in aqueous solutions containing a surfactant (emission maxima 520-530 nm). The chemiluminescence spectra of PMs are significantly affected by the... 

The UV-visible spectra of the H- and nifro-azobenzene dendrimers in chloroform solution showed strong absorption bands within the visible region due to the transitions of azobenzene chromophores (Table 2). Because of the stronger delocalization of n-electrons in nitro-azobenzene, the maximum absorption band is at a longer wavelength compared with that for H-azoben-zene. There was little spectral shift of the absorption maximum for dendrimers with different numbers of azobenzene units, indicating that dendrimers did not form any special intermolecular aggregates. 

The reaction between complexes of the type Fe(H20)5X and V(H20)6 has been investigated by a flow method by measurements at the absorption maximum of the former species . Rate coefficients are recorded in Table 3 when... 

In the case of the naphthoquinone methine-type near-IR dye 55, reduction with tin(II) chloride under acidic conditions gives the leuco dye 56, which has weak absorption maxima at 350-359nm in methanol. The leuco dye 56 can be isolated as a stable pale yellow compound. The oxidation behavior of 56 has been studied by adding benzoquinone as oxidant in methanol solution. Compound 56 immediately produced new absorption at 760 nm which is consistent with the absorption maximum of 55 (Scheme 19).30 The absorption spectra of the leuco, quinone, and metal complex forms are summarized in Table 3. 

Dimalone [bicyclo-(2.2.1)-5-heptene-2,3-dicarboxylic acid dimethyl ester] and Octa-cide 264 [the V-octyl imide of bicyclo-(2.2.1)-5-heptene-2,3-dicarboxylic acid] do produce a red color with an absorption maximum in the same region as that obtained in the analysis of Compound 118. However, because Dimalone is an insect repellent and Octacide 264 is a pyrethrum synergist, neither of these products is likely to be encountered in commercial mixtures of Compound 118. The response to the colorimetric test for Compound 118 of some chemicals commonly used for insect control is listed in Table V.

Dihydroepistephamiersine 6-acetate (7) was isolated from Stephania abyssinica as a homogeneous oil. The UV spectrum showed an absorption maximum at 286 nm, and the IR spectrum exhibited a band corresponding to an aliphatic ester carbonyl group at 1725 cm-1 (20). The H-NMR data are summarized in Table II. In chemical investigations, hydrolysis of 7 with barium methoxide gave an alcohol identical with 6-dihydroepistephamiersine (17), which on further treatment with mineral acid gave the known alkaloid, stephasunoline (17). Thus structure 7 was proposed for 6-dihydroepistephamiersine 6-acetate (20). 

Oxostephasunoline (4) was isolated from the roots of Stephania japonica(4). The UV spectrum of oxostephasunoline (4) showed an absorption maximum at 286 nm, and the IR spectrum depicted bands at 3550,3500, and 1670 cm, indicating the presence of a hydroxyl group and a y-lactam. The mass spectrum (Table VI) exhibited the most abundant ion peak at m/z 258, and the H-NMR spectrum (Table II) revealed the presence of three methoxyl and one N-methyl group. The downfield shift (53.06) of the JV-methyl resonance indicated that oxostephasunoline (4) was a y-lactam, which was further supported by the IR band at 1670 cm 1, significant features of the mass spectrum (Table VI), and the 13C-NMR spectrum (Table III). On exhaustive H-NMR analysis similar to the case of stephasunoline (17), the structure of oxostephasunoline (4) including the stereochemistry was practically proved (4). 

The F center absorption maximum for KC1 is at 565 nm and that for KF is 460 nm (Table 9.1). (a) What is the composition of a natural crystal with color centers showing an absorption peak at 500 nm (b) If the absorption peak for KF corresponds to the promotion of an electron from the F center to the conduction band, determine the energy of the color center with respect to the conduction band. (The band gap in KF is 10.7 eV.) If the relative position of the color center energy level remains the same throughout the KF-KC1 solid solution range, estimate (c) the band gap of KC1 and (d) the band gap for the natural crystal. 

It is possible to measure the absorbance of a sample of a known compound at its absorption maximum and to calculate the actual concentration of the compound in the sample using a known value for the molar absorption coefficient (often obtainable from published spectral tables). In Figure 2.2 the absorption spectrum of ADP shows an absorbance of 0.22 at 258 nm. The quoted value for the molar absorption coefficient of ADP at this wavelength is 1.54 X 104 1 mol-1 cm-1 and hence the concentration of ADP in the sample used can be calculated from the Beer-Lambert equation ... 

PMe2Ph)2] shows no absorption maximum below 272 nm (Table I). 

In addition to the 2 nm shift in the absorption maximum, the two cytochromes can be distinguished by the use of ethyl isocyanide interaction spectra (6, 7) and various inhibitors of the monooxygenase activity (Figure 2 and Table III). The relative magnitude of the ethyl isocyanide-cytochrome P-1+50 interaction spectral peaks at —1+30 and —1+55 nm is pH dependent (6j and if the absorbance differences are plotted as functions of pH, there is a cross-over point at a certain pH which is characteristic for a particular form of cytochrome P-1+50 pH 6.9 for cytochrome P-1+1+8 and pH 7-5-7.6 for PB induced or control cytochrome P-1+50 (6, 21). The cytochrome P-1+50 of apparently uninduced trout species (Salmo trutta lacustris) has been shown by us to have the pH cross-over point for ethyl isocyanide interaction spectrum at pH 7.8 (2l) and the absorption maximum of the reduced trout liver cytochrome P-1+50. 00 complex is 1+50 nm, nevertheless its catalytic and inhibitory properties (2l)(Table III) are similar to those of cytochrome P-1+1+8. 

Flash excitation of solutions of 3,5-dinitroanisole in the presence of nucleophiles produces a short-lived species with an absorption maximum at 550-570 nm (Figure 11, curve a). Decay of this species follows first order kinetics. The lifetime varies rather strongly with the nature of the nucleophile, from 40 ms with hydroxide ion to 0 1 ms with thiocyanate (Table 4). The absorption spectrum is independent of the reagent used. 

However, 2,3-dihydro-4(lH)-pyridone [248] is also claimed to be N-protonated (Sugiyama et al., 1969) because the absorption maximum of its hydrochloride occurs virtually at the same wavelength (325 nm) as for the base itself (327 nm). According to Table 5, this would be an indication of O-protonation. Monocyclic ketones ([249], R = MeCO) with uninhibited mesomerism show O-proto-... 

Another transient aminoxyl radical has been generated , and employed in H-abstraction reactivity determinations" . Precursor 1-hydroxybenzotriazole (HBT, Table 2) has been oxidized by cyclic voltammetry (CV) to the corresponding >N—O species, dubbed BTNO (Scheme 9). A redox potential comparable to that of the HPI —PINO oxidation, i.e. E° 1.08 V/NHE, has been obtained in 0.01 M sodium acetate buffered solution at pH 4.7, containing 4% MeCN". Oxidation of HBT by either Pb(OAc)4 in AcOH, or cerium(IV) ammonium nitrate (CAN E° 1.35 V/NHE) in MeCN, has been monitored by spectrophotometry , providing a broad UV-Vis absorption band with A-max at 474 nm and e = 1840 M cm. As in the case of PINO from HPI, the absorption spectrum of aminoxyl radical BTNO is not stable, but decays faster (half-life of 110 s at [HBT] = 0.5 mM) than that of PINO . An EPR spectrum consistent with the structure of BTNO was obtained from equimolar amounts of CAN and HBT in MeCN solution . Finally, laser flash photolysis (LFP) of an Ar-saturated MeCN solution of dicumyl peroxide and HBT at 355 nm gave rise to a species whose absorption spectrum, recorded 1.4 ms after the laser pulse, had the same absorption maximum (ca 474 nm) of the spectrum recorded by conventional spectrophotometry (Scheme 9)59- 54... 

Introduction of dialkylamino substituents in the 6 -position of the spiroindolinonaphthoxazine (1.11) causes a hypsochromic shift in the absorption maximum of the coloured state and also an increase in its intensity. This hypsochromic shift can also be increased by introducing electron-withdrawing groups into the 5-position of (1.11), whilst electron-donating groups move the absorption maximum in the opposite direction. The data for these effects are given in Table 1.3.

The exact hue of a single compound dye, and therefore ultimately any mixture with another compound, depends on its absorption characteristics, i.e. both the wavelength and the molar absorption coefficient or height at the absorption maximum, but also of importance is the shape and size (the band width) of the area under the curve. The observed hues given in Table 2.2 are due to the wavelengths of light not absorbed.
