H. Irikawa et al., PREPARATION AND ABSORPTION SPECTRAL PROPERTIES OF THE NITROGEN ANALOGS OF A PECHMANN DYE AND ITS ISOMERIC PYRANO[4,3-C]PYRAN-1,5-DIONE, Heterocycles, 48(7), 1998, pp. 1415-1422
Bathochromic shifts were observed by replacement of the lactone-oxygen
atoms in a Pechmann dye with nitrogen atoms, while hypsochromic shift
s were caused by replacement of the lactone-oxygen atoms in a pyrano[4
,3-c]pylan-1,5-dione with nitrogen atoms.
