Popis: The maximum wavelength of the solvatochromic absorption band of Dimroth-Reichardt's dye I, 2,4,6-triphenylpyridinium N-4-(2,6-diphenylphenoxide) betaine, has been determined at 25°C from the ultraviolet-visible spectra of solutions of this dye in ethylammonium nitrate (EAN) and its mixtures with several polar solvents. The related molar transition energy, ET(30) in kcal/mol, of the long-wavelength absorption band increases sharply, when EAN is dissolved at low concentrations in the various solvents. The pronounced blue shift of the absorption band is attributed to the hydrogen-bond interaction between the ethylammonium cation and the ground state of the betaine molecule.
