The initial reversible interaction of 1,3,5-trinitrobenzene and cyanide ion has been studied spectrophotometrically in a number of nonaqueous solvents and found to result in the formation of a complex containing 1,3,5-trinitrobenzene and cyanide ion in a 1:1 ratio. At 25.3 °C, the equilibrium constants for complex formation (K) and the molar extinction coefficients (ϵ) of the complex were found to be 1.44 ± 0.15 × 105 l mole−1 and 2.24 ± 0.05 × 104 l mole−1 cm−1 and 3.35 ± 0.35 × 105 l mole−1 and 2.24 ± 0.05 × 104 1 mole−1 cm−1 respectively for acetone and chloroform solutions. The second-order rate constant governing formation of the complex in chloroform was found to be 2.25 × 102 l mole−1 s−1 at 25.0 °C. On the basis of the visible and infrared absorption data obtained for the complex in chloroform and 1,2-dimethoxy-ethane, the complex is considered to be a Meisenheimer-type complex rather than a "charge-transfer" complex.

Charge-transfer complex formation between the donors 1-bromonaphthalene. 9-bromophenanthrene, 9-bromoanthracene, 3-bromopyrene, and 7-bromobenz[a]-anthracene and the acceptors iodine, tetrachlorophthalic anhydride, 1,3,5-trinitrobenzene, and 2,4,7-trinitrofluorenone has been investigated. The positions of the charge-transfer absorption maxima, apparent molar extinction coefficients, and equilibrium constants have been determined in carbon tetrachloride solution and the results compared with those for the corresponding unsubstituted polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. The positions of the absorption maxima of the charge-transfer bands of the brominated hydrocarbons were anomalous but the apparent molar extinction coefficients and equilibrium constants were similar to those obtained for the parent hydrocarbons. The strength of charge-transfer bonding in molecular complexes of brominated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons is shown to be of the same order as that in molecular complexes of the unsubstituted hydrocarbons.

Here are reported infrared absorption data between 4000 cm−1 and 700 cm−1 near 19 °C for methanol, n-propanol, isopropanol, cyclohexanol, benzyl alcohol, diethyl ether, anisole, 1,4-dioxane, diisopropyl ether, nitromethane, acetone, p-xylene, benzene, and hexane as pure substances and in carbon tetrachloride solution. Band frequencies accurate to within 1 cm−1 are reported. Except for the 3340 cm−1 band in dilute MeOH solutions no frequency shifts were observed even with gross changes of the electrical properties of the solutions. Molar extinction coefficients at absorption maxima are discussed briefly.

The interactions of N,N-dimethyl-3,4-di-O-methyldopamine, 1, a structural analogue of the important neurochemical, dopamine, with 1,3,5-trinitrobenzene (TNB) were studied primarily by 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (nmr). The dopamine analogue, a donor, forms a charge transfer complex with TNB, a model acceptor, in CDCl3 and CD3CN. Equilibrium constants were determined from the 1H nmr charge transfer induced chemical shift changes. The results are discussed in terms of the probable type of donation from the amine, 1, to TNB (n → π* versus π → π*), comparison with dopamine, and with regard to possible charge transfer interactions in molecular receptors. Keywords: N,N-dimethyl-3,4-di-O-methyldopamine, charge transfer complex, equilibrium constant.

Stability constants have been measured spectrophotometrically for the 1:1 complexes of iron(III) with phenol and five derivatives in background solutions having two different compositions, 0.027 M NaClO4 and 0 5 M KNO3 Conditional acidity constants for these phenols in the second of these media were also determined The experimental results were treated in two different ways to obtain values of the equilibrium constants and the molar extinction coefficients of the complexes It is apparent that the equilibrium in these cases must be studied under conditions, such as low pH and low concentration of iron, which militate against good precision in the results
