Characteristic and spectroscopic properties of the Schiff-base model compounds.
Two series of conjugated aromatic imines (Schiff-base model compounds) with different central groups and various side-group substitutions have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) technique, hydrogen nuclear magnetic resonance ((1)H NMR), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and ultra-violet and visible light (UV-vis) spectroscopy measurements. The UV-vis absorption of solutions of these compounds in dimethylacetamid (DMA), chloroform and methanol was investigated in the optical range from 240 to 450nm, where two distinct absorption bands: at 250-280 and 315-360nm with the different level of absorption have been observed. The influence of compound molecular structure and polarity of solvent on the absorption spectra and the possible optical transitions have been discussed. Structure of diamines in the azomethine models fundamentally affected their spectroscopic properties and conjugation of pi-electrons.
