Electron absorption spectra

The development of ultrafast spectroscopy has paralleled progress in the teclmical aspects of pulse fomiation [Uj. Because mode-locked laser sources are tunable only with diflSculty, until recently the most heavily studied physical and chemical systems were those that had strong electronic absorption spectra in the neighbourhood of conveniently produced wavelengths.

Comparison of electronic absorption spectra of BPR and PR in solution with electronic absolution spectra of BPR and PR on NH -S and en-S surfaces has been made. In contrast to aqueous solutions, where shift of the absolution maximum of dyes is occurred when pH is changed, significant shift of maxima is not observed on aminosilica gels surface during pH changing. Both reagents BPR and PR have an absolution maximum in the field of 17900-18100 cm at different pH values. However use of BPR is more preferable than that of PR as qualitative soi ption of BPR occurs at wider pH range. 

Electronic absorption spectra are produced when electromagnetic radiation promotes the ions from their ground state to excited states. For the lanthanides the most common of such transitions involve excited states which are either components of the ground term or else belong to excited terms which arise from the same 4f" configuration as the ground term. In either case the transitions therefore involve only a redistribution of electrons within the 4f orbitals (i.e. f—>f transitions) and so are orbitally forbidden just like d—>d transitions. In the case of the latter the rule is partially relaxed by a mechanism which depends on the effect of the crystal field in distorting the symmetry of the metal ion. However, it has already been pointed out that crystal field effects are very much smaller in the case of ions and they... 

The ultraviolet absorption spectra of carboline derivatives have been repeatedly recorded. Since the basic jpyr-N in the carbohnes and in 3,4-dihydro-jS-carbolines is part of a conjugated system, protonation affects the electronic absorption spectra significantly. It is unfortunate therefore that the spectra of the protonated, as well as those of the unprotonated, species have not been reported in all instances. Protonation leads to a bathochromic shift of 20-30 mp,. This is illustrated by the absorption of j3-carboline, 1-methyl-jS-carboline, 7-methoxy-l-methyl-jS-carbohne, and the salts of these compounds. 

A. Electronic (Ultraviolet and Visible) Absorption Spectra The electronic absorption spectra of heterocyclic molecules have their origins in the transitions of electrons between different molecular orbitals. In general, the more these orbitals are spread out in space, the closer together are their energy levels and the longer the wavelengths... 

All the known porphyrin isomers are typical benzoid aromatic compounds which show distinctly porphyrin-like characteristic electronic absorption spectra.13 Also the complexation properties for metal ions, NH tautomerism and the NMR spectra are quite similar to the parent porphyrin structure.

Electronic absorption spectra of a few typical transition-metal complexes are shown in Fig. 2-1. The following features are to be noted. 

Very few studies on complexes of palladium and platinum with 1,1-dithiolato ligands have been reported recently. The electronic absorption spectra of the Et2dtc complexes of Pd and Pt, as well as Zn, Cu, Fe, Co, and Mn, have been measured in MeCN, EtOH, and -heptane, with diffuse-reflectance spectra also being determined (401). In 1969 and... 

Resonance Raman (RR) spectroscopy provides information about the vibrational characteristics of a chromophore, for example, a metal center, within the complex environment of a protein. In RR spectra, those vibrational transitions are observed selectively that are coupled to electronic transitions. In iron sulfur proteins, this technique has been used to resolve the complex electronic absorption spectra and to identify both vibrational and electronic transitions. 

The electronic absorption spectra of the products of one-electron electrochemical reduction of the iron(III) phenyl porphyrin complexes have characteristics of both iron(II) porphyrin and iron(III) porphyrin radical anion species, and an electronic structure involving both re.sonance forms Fe"(Por)Ph] and tFe "(Por—)Ph has been propo.sed. Chemical reduction of Fe(TPP)R to the iron(II) anion Fe(TPP)R) (R = Et or /7-Pr) was achieved using Li BHEt3 or K(BH(i-Bu)3 as the reductant in benzene/THF solution at room temperature in the dark. The resonances of the -propyl group in the F NMR spectrum of Fe(TPP)(rt-Pr) appear in the upfield positions (—0.5 to —6.0 ppm) expected for a diamagnetic porphyrin complex. This contrasts with the paramagnetic, 5 = 2 spin state observed...

Sometimes, the physicochemical properties of ionic species solubilized in the aqueous core of reversed micelles are different from those in bulk water. Changes in the electronic absorption spectra of ionic species (1 , Co ", Cu " ) entrapped in AOT-reversed micelles have been observed, attributed to changes in the amount of water available for solvation [2,92,134], In particular, it has been observed that at low water concentrations cobalt ions are solubihzed in the micellar core as a tetrahedral complex, whereas with increasing water concentration there is a gradual conversion to an octahedral complex [135],...

The tautomeric product distribution has been a prerequisite for a further investigation aimed at predicting absorption properties of the transient semiquinones and quinones generated by pulse radiolytic oxidation of 2-4. The simulation of electronic absorption spectra has been computed using the TD-DFTapproach both in vacuum and in aqueous solution, using the large 6-311 + +G(2d,2p) basis set.19... 

Atomic spectra are much simpler than the corresponding molecular spectra, because there are no vibrational and rotational states. Moreover, spectral transitions in absorption or emission are not possible between all the numerous energy levels of an atom, but only according to selection rules. As a result, emission spectra are rather simple, with up to a few hundred lines. For example, absorption and emission spectra for sodium consist of some 40 peaks for elements with several outer electrons, absorption spectra may be much more complex and consist of hundreds of peaks.
