A. Kadiri et al., COMPARISON OF HYDROGEN-BONDING AND N-ETHY LATION COMPLEX-FORMATION EFFECTS ON CARBAZOLE ABSORPTION-SPECTRA IN UV SPECTROSCOPIC ANALYSIS, Spectrochimica acta. Part A: Molecular spectroscopy, 50(5), 1994, pp. 851-855
A study of the spectral shifts of the electronic transitions of the ca
rbazole molecule induced by a solvent ''cage'' effect, by H-bonding an
d by N-ethylation is reported. These various perturbations produce dif
ferent effects on the first two bands in the UV absorption spectrum of
carbazole and lead to phenomena which are manifest in solvents of dif
ferent proton availabilities.
