The electronic absorption spectra of some N-sulfinylanilines. A molecular orbital treatment
Keyword(s):
The electronic absorption spectra of N-sulfinylaniline and some of its derivatives were investigated using different solvents. The spectral behavior of the molecules indicated their planarity and that the NSO group is a strong electron acceptor. All the observed bands correspond to delocalized π → π* transitions; n → π* transition were not observed as discrete bands. Ab initio molecular orbital calculations were performed using four different basis sets. The results showed that the NSO group is nonlinear, the molecules studied are planar, and the syn conformer is more stable than the anti conformer. Keywords: N-sulfinylanilines, spectra and theoretical treatment.
