M. Podsiadla et al., SPECTROPHOTOMETRIC STUDIES ON THE SOLVATOCHROMISM OF THE FE(CN)(2)(PHEN)(2) COMPLEX, Monatshefte fuer Chemie, 125(8-9), 1994, pp. 827-831
The solvatochromic behaviour of bis-(cyano)-bis-(9,10-phenanthroline)-
iron(II) has been reexamined spectrophotometrically in a series of 19
solvents including water, alcohols and dipolar. aprotic media. Satisfa
ctory correlations between the wave numbers of the long-wavelength ban
d and solvent acceptor numbers are obtained in all media; only values,
for carboxylic acids deviate from the regression line.
