The relative intensities I1/I3 of the vibronic bands of pyrene fluorescence in 94 solvents and the vapor phase are reported. These values, ranging from 0.47 (vapor) to 1.95 (dimethyl sulfoxide) form the Py scale of solvent polarities. This scale is compared to other scales of solvent polarity, particularly the π* scale of Kamlet and Taft in order to assess the contributions of various factors (dipolarity/polarizability, hydrogen bonding, etc.) to the solute–solvent interaction.

As the NH2 bond angle increases, both vasym NH2 and vsym. NH2 increase in frequency, and the frequency separation between vasym. NH2 and vsym. NH2 increases as the Hammett σp and σm values increase (increasing electron withdrawing power). The NH2 bond angles change with solute/solvent interaction. In CHCl3 solution IR bands are observed for two sets of vasym. NH2 and vsym. NH2 frequencies. It is suggested that this is the result of intermolecular hydrogen bonding between H2N and HCCl3 and between NH2 and Cl(HCl2)2. In CCl4 solution the intermolecular hydrogen bonding between the NH2 protons and the Cl atoms of CCl4 is stronger than between the Cl atoms of CHCl3.

Variation in the correlations obtained between electron acceptor number (AN) values for each solvent versus the vC=O frequencies for acetone and tetramethylurea in solution with these solvents suggests that the AN values are not a precise measure of solute/solvent interaction for all solute/solvent systems. Factors such as intermolecular hydrogen bonding between solute and solvent and the differences between molecular geometry of the solutes and solvents most likely account for differences in the solute/solvent interaction for different solutes in the same solvents.

Molar conductances and viscosities of Bu4NBPh4, NaBPh4 and R4NBr (R ethyl, propyl and butyl) at 35 °C in acetonitrile (AN), dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) and their binary mixtures have been reported. The conductivity data has been analysed by the Shedlovsky conductance equation and viscosity data by the Jones-Dole equation. Resolution of limiting molar conductivity (Λ0) and viscosity B coefficient of electrolytes into their ionic components have been achieved by the reference salt method. Viscosity A coefficients have been compared with theoretical Aη coefficients. Derived conductance and viscosity parameters have been discussed in terms of the ion-solvent interaction.

The unusual behavior of the solution luminescence emission of [(phen)(H2O)Re(CO)3]+(CF3SO3)− depends on the solvent polarity, and coordinating and hydrogen bonding ability.
