Abstract: | Summary Wavelengths of maximum absorptions are reported for the main metal-to-ligand charge transfer-bands (MLCT) of complexes Fe(CN)5(4-phpy)]3– and Fe(CN)5(4-t-bupy)]3– (4-phpy=4-phenylpyridine and 4-t-bupy=4-t-butylpyridine) in several series of mixed solvents. Correlations of the shifts in MLCT energies as a function of dielectric constant and polarizability of the medium have been investigated. The interpretation of the medium effects on Eop (MLCT) takes into account the process of preferential solvation of solutes by solvent molecules. |
