The unambiguous electronic absorption spectra of HgX42−(X = Cl, Br, or I) in methanol have been determined for the first time. The spectra were resolved into their component Gaussian bands, and assigned using a correlation diagram for Td symmetry. The effects of second-order spin–orbit coupling account satisfactorily for the observed band intensities and splittings. The formation constants, K4, as a function of ionic strength were computed over the complete spectral range by multiple linear regression analysis and were, extrapolated to infinite dilution, 0.4 ± 0.1 for Hgl42− and HgBr42−, and 5.7 ± 0.2 for HgCl42−. Significant cation effects were observed upon the spectra of HgX2 with added X−, and may partially be explained in terms of the extended Debye–Hückel equation. Key words: electronic absorption spectra, mercury(II) halide complexes, formation constants, ionic strength, Gaussian band analysis.

The synthesis of tetrasubstituted zinc phthalocyanines bearing quinolinoxy groups are reported for the first time. The new compounds have been characterized by elemental analysis, IR, MS and electronic spectroscopy. The photophysical properties, such as the electronic absorption spectra and fluorescence spectra, have also been investigated and discussed together with the influence of substituent position and organic solvents on these properties. The introduction of quinolinoxy group to the Pc ring was found to affect these photophysical properties to some extent.

Spectroscopic properties of discotic liquid crystalline bis[octakis(3,4-dialkoxyphenoxy)-phthalocyaninato]lutetium(III) complexes, {[( C n O )2 PhO ]8 Pc }2 Lu (n = 12: 2a and n = 13: 2b), were investigated by recording electronic absorption spectra in the region of 250-2600 nm under three different conditions; solution, mixed solvent solutions, and a thin film at various temperatures. An intermolecular charge transfer (CT) band was found at about 2000-2100 nm both for the n-hexane solution and the thin film. It was established for the first time from the solvent-polarity-dependent and temperature-dependent electronic absorption spectra that the intermolecular CT band is attributable to molecular aggregation.

The ultraviolet absorption spectra of cyclohex-1-enylcarboxylic acid and 2- methylcyclohex-1-enylcarboxylic acid were determined in six protic and nine aprotic solvents in the wavelength range from 200 to 400 nm. The position of the ?max of the two examined acids showed that the ultraviolet absorption maximums of cyclohex-1-enylcarboxylic acid were at consistently longer wavelengths in protic solvents than those of methylcyclohex-1-enylcarboxylic acid. The opposite was true in aprotic solvents. In order to explain the obtained results, the ultraviolet absorption frequencies of the electronic transitions in the carboxy carbonyl group of the examined acids were correlated using a total solvatochromic equation of the form: v = v0 + s?* + a? + b?, where ?* is a measure of the solvent polarity, ? represents the scale of solvent hydrogen bond acceptor basicities and a represents the scale of solvent hydrogen bond donor acidities. The correlation of the spectroscopic data was carried out by means of multiple linear regression analysis. The opposing solvent effects on the ultraviolet absorption maximums of the two examined acids were discussed.

The λ-C1-cis(N), δ-C1-cis(N), λ-C2-cis(N) and δ-C2-cis(N) isomers of the complex K[Co((S)-Pro)2CO3] were chromatographically separated and characterized by their electronic absorption spectra and CD spectra.
