1 UV-vis Absorption (Extinction) Spectroscopy Single-Beam or Double-Beam Fixed or Dispersive Common: Source – Tungsten Halogen Lamp (360-2000 nm) Sample – Liquid In Cuvette Dispersion – Spectrograph w/ Diffraction Grating Detector – CCD Beer’s Law: A =  bc

2 Assumptions Ingle and Crouch, Spectrochemical Analysis

3 Apparent Deviations from Beer’s Law Non-Zero Intercept Improper blank measurement or correction. Instrumental drift. Skoog, Hollar, Nieman, Principles of Instrumental Analysis, Saunders College Publishing, Philadelphia, 1998.

4 Apparent Deviations from Beer’s Law Non-Linear Calibration Plot Chemical Equilibrium – if multiple chemical forms of analyte exist and only one absorbs Other Chemical Effects – solute/solvent interactions, solute/solute interactions, H bonding at high concentrations Using Polychromatic Radiation – non-optimum wavelengths are still transmitted and detected Stray Light – causes measured transmittance to be larger than it should be Skoog, Hollar, Nieman, Principles of Instrumental Analysis, Saunders College Publishing, Philadelphia, 1998.

5 Absorbed/Emitted Colors Pretsch/Buhlmann/Affolter/Badertscher, Structure Determination of Organic Compounds

6 Chromophores Often transitions are localized in specific bonds or functional groups within a molecule. Group will have a characteristic max and . Molecular structure or environment can influence max and . Shift to longer  bathochromic (red) shift. Shift to shorter  hypsochromic (blue) shift. Increase in   hyperchromic effect. Decrease in   hypochromic effect. What effect does conjugation usually have? hyperchromic effect / bathochromic shift

7 Characteristic Electronic Transitions Pretsch/Buhlmann/Affolter/Badertscher, Structure Determination of Organic Compounds L mol -1 cm -1

8 Characteristic Electronic Transitions Pretsch/Buhlmann/Affolter/Badertscher, Structure Determination of Organic Compounds L mol -1 cm -1

9 Auxophore Does not absorb Induces a bathochromic shift and hyperchromic effect when conjugated to a chromophore (e.g. -OH, -Br, -NH 2 ). Solvent Effects Hypsochromic shift in n   * transitions as solvent polarity increases. Solvation stabilizes the nonbonding pair. Bathochromic shift in    * transitions as solvent polarity increases. Solvation stabilizes  *, which is often more polar than .

13 UV Absorption of Conjugated Alkenes Increasing conjugation gives: longer wavelength absorption more intense absorption  units = L mole -1 cm -1

15 Systems with More than 4 Double Bonds max (nm) = 114 + 5M + n(48.0-1.7n) – 16.5R endo – 10R exo n = number of conjugated double bonds M = number of alkyl or alkyl like substituents on the conjugated system R endo = number of rings with endocyclic double bonds in the conjugated system R exo = number of rings with exocyclic double bonds Fieser-Kuhn Rules
