Spectroscopic Polarity

In this book, use has been made of a spectroscopically determined polarity index called Et, where E stands for energy , T stands for transition , and N stands for normalized . The polarity index characterizes the polarity of organic compounds relative to water, the latter being given the polarity index 1.000. All organic compounds have polarity indices smaller than that of water, the only known exception being 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoro-2-propanol, for which Ej = 1.068. [Pg.258]

Worldwide, this polarity index has found extensive applications in distillation, extraction, and organic synthesis, and for this reason, where available, it was included in the property lists given in the preceding chapters. [Pg.258]

The polarity index was invented by C. Reichardt, professor of organic chemistry at the University of Marburg/Germany, and author of a rather famous book on SOLVENTS AND SOLVENT EFFECTS IN ORGANIC CHEMISTRY (VCH Verlagsgesellschaft, Weinheim, 1988). In this book, the Ej values are listed for hundreds of compounds. [Pg.258]

A comprehensive table of Ej values as given in professor Reichardt s book permits a judicious selection of volatility modifiers in distillation as well as an appraisal of solvents for liquid/liquid extraction. Consequently, for such applications, it is essential that the Et value be known. [Pg.261]


Of course, in liquid/liquid extraction, the extractant must form two liquid phases with the feed stock. With lubricating oil, diesel fuel, and soybean oil, furfural is capable of satisfying this condition as its oxygen atoms make it a more polar compound. The spectroscopic polarity index Et [45] of furfural is 0.426 whereas the values of the oils and of diesel fuel are close to zero. [Pg.98]

Where known, the position of the various compounds on a ladder of spectroscopic polarity indices is illustrated in Figure 70,... [Pg.141]

Having a spectroscopic polarity index Et = 0.426, furfural is of intermediate polarity, and on account of this property, furfural is infinitely miscible with other solvents of intermediate polarity, up to Et values of about 0.790, and down to Et values of about 0.099. At 25 °C, this infinite miscibility with furfural includes, in alphabetical order, acetic acid, acetone, benzene, butanol, butyric acid, chloroform, ethyl acetate, ethylene glycol, formic acid, octyl alcohol, oleic acid, propionic acid, pyridine, quinoline, and toluene. [Pg.317]

The question to be clarified by the FTIR spectroscopic polarization studies was... [Pg.71]

The PME is more complicated than the RAE, since the modulation amplitude of the PEM must be calibrated and its small but significant static retardation measured at all wavelengths used. Eurthermore, the frequency of the PEM is about 500 times faster than the rotation speed of the RAE this improves the time resolution to 1 ms, but requires faster electronics for data collection. In its normal configuration discussed above, the PME can measure S and either N or C. However, if the PSD polarizer is replaced with a Wollaston prism polarizer and both channels are detected (measuring a total of four quantities), then it is possible to measure N, S, and C simultaneously. This implementation is called the two-channel spectroscopic polarization modulation ellipsometer (2C-SPME). [Pg.408]

The attachment of pyrene or another fluorescent marker to a phospholipid or its addition to an insoluble monolayer facilitates their study via fluorescence spectroscopy [163]. Pyrene is often chosen due to its high quantum yield and spectroscopic sensitivity to the polarity of the local environment. In addition, one of several amphiphilic quenching molecules allows measurement of the pyrene lateral diffusion in the mono-layer via the change in the fluorescence decay due to the bimolecular quenching reaction [164,165]. [Pg.128]

Molecular chirality is most often observed experimentally through its optical activity, which is the elfect on polarized light. The spectroscopic techniques for measuring optical activity are optical rotary dispersion (ORD), circular di-chroism (CD), and vibrational circular dichroism (VCD). [Pg.113]

It seems now established by NMR spectroscopic investigations that a change can take place in electronic structures and atomic configuration of the dyes depending on the polarity of the solvent. Parameters describing the transition from one single bond to more double bond character vary according to the nature of the solvent (107). [Pg.75]

In the second broad class of spectroscopy, the electromagnetic radiation undergoes a change in amplitude, phase angle, polarization, or direction of propagation as a result of its refraction, reflection, scattering, diffraction, or dispersion by the sample. Several representative spectroscopic techniques are listed in Table 10.2. [Pg.374]

According to a kinetic study which included (56), (56a) and some oxaziridines derived from aliphatic aldehydes, hydrolysis follows exactly first order kinetics in 4M HCIO4. Proton catalysis was observed, and there is a linear correlation with Hammett s Ho function. Since only protonated molecules are hydrolyzed, basicities of oxaziridines ranging from pii A = +0.13 to -1.81 were found from the acidity rate profile. Hydrolysis rates were 1.49X 10 min for (56) and 43.4x 10 min for (56a) (7UCS(B)778). O-Protonation is assumed to occur, followed by polar C—O bond cleavage. The question of the place of protonation is independent of the predominant IV-protonation observed spectroscopically under equilibrium conditions all protonated species are thermodynamically equivalent. [Pg.207]

RAIRS is a non-destructive infrared technique with special versatility - it does not require the vacuum conditions essential for electron spectroscopic methods and is, therefore, in principle, applicable to the study of growth processes [4.270]. By use of a polarization modulation technique surfaces in a gas phase can be investigated. Higher surface sensitivity is achieved by modulation of the polarization between s and p. This method can also be used to discriminate between anisotropic near-sur-face absorption and isotropic absorption in the gas phase [4.271]. [Pg.250]

Spectroscopic ellipsometers that measure A in the whole data range require an achromatic compensator with a phase shift close to 90° over a large spectral range. The compensator can be located between polarizer and sample or between sample and analyzer. [Pg.268]
