Photochemistry ultraviolet-visible absorption spectra

Generally the first thing to be done in preparation for the photochemical study of a compound is to determine the visible and ultraviolet absorption spectrum of the compound. Besides furnishing information concerning the nature of the excited state potentially involved in the photochemistry (see Section 1.4), the absorption spectrum furnishes information of a more applied nature as to the wavelength range in which the material absorbs and its molar absorptivity e. From this information it is possible to decide what type of light source to use for the irradiation, what solvents can be used to... [Pg.316]

Spectroscopy and photochemistry of CF3NO in the visible region have been extensively studied by Roellig and Houston (113,114), Bower et al. (115), Jones et al. (116), and Spears and Hoffland (117). Trifluoronitrosomethane has a weak structured absorption spectrum in the visible near 700 nm. Absorption of light in this region induced fluorescence as well as dissociation, which is similar to the H2CO photochemistry in the ultraviolet described earlier. [Pg.29]

Abstract Photochemistry is concerned with the interaction between light and matter. The present chapter outlines the basic concepts of photochemistry in order to provide a foundation for the various aspects of environmental photochemistry explored later in the book. Electronically excited states are produced by the absorption of radiation in the visible and ultraviolet regions of the spectrum. The excited states that can be produced depend on the electronic structure of the absorbing species. Excited molecules can suffer a variety of fates together, these fates make up the various aspects of photochemistry. They include dissociation, ionization and isomerization emission of luminescent radiation as fluorescence or phosphorescence and transfer of energy by intramolecular processes to generate electronic states different from those first excited, or by intermo-lecular processes to produce electronically excited states of molecules chemically different from those in which the absorption first occurred. Each of these processes is described in the chapter, and the ideas of quantum yields and photonic efficiencies are introduced to provide a quantitative expression of their relative contributions. [Pg.2]
