S. Stoyanov et al., QUANTITATIVE-ANALYSIS OF TAUTOMERIC EQUILIBRIUM IN 1-PHENYLAZO-4-NAPHTHOLS - A NEW APPROACH, Dyes and pigments, 26(2), 1994, pp. 149-158
A new quantitative approach, based on the analysis of overlapping band
s, in determining the tautomeric equilibrium constant and the individu
al spectral curves of the pure tautomeric forms of 1-phenylazo-4-napht
hol and its derivatives is applied. The influence of some important fa
ctors affecting the tautomeric equilibrium, such as solvent polarity,
substituents in the phenyl ring, etc., is evaluated.
