Abstract
The intermolecular charge-transfer spectra of seven crown ethers (CE), viz, 15C5, 18C6, B15C5, B18C6, DC18C6, and DB24C8, with picric acid ( PA) were studied in the UV-visible region in 1,2-dichloroethane (DCE) at 298.2 K. The complex formation equilibrium constant values, K-c, su ggest that many factors contribute to K-c, among them crown ether conf ormation, size and the presence of an aromatic ring in the CE.
