Abstract: | The twisting effect of benzene rings on the electronic spectra of derivatives of benzophenone (BPh), 2-hydroxy-4,6-dimethylbenzophenone (2-OH-4,6-diCH3BPh) and 2,4,6-trimethoxybenzophenone (2,4,6-triOCH3BPh) has been interpreted by the PPP method. The effect of structure, protonation, ionization and interaction with proton-acceptor solvent on the twisting of aromatic rings is discussed. The following twist angles of substituted ring (θI) and unsubstituted ring (θII) in 2-OH-4,6-diCH3BPh were found: neutral form in cyclohexane θI = 39°–48°, θII = ?30°–(?45°); neutral form in ethanol θI = 66°–72°, θII = ?30°–0°; protonized form θI = 64°–6°, θII = ?30°–0°; ionized form θI = 66°–74°, θII = ?30°–0°. In the neutral form of 2,4,6-triOCH3PBh the substituted ring is twisted by angle θI ~ 70° while in the protonated form the unsubstituted ring is twisted by angle θII ~ 60° and the substituted one is coplanar with the CO group. |
