Chapter 14.SE, Problem 66AP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The difference between the UV absorption maxima of benzene (204 nm) and p- toluidine (235 nm) is to be accounted.

Concept introduction:

A shift in UV absorption maxima to higher wavelengths is observed with increase in conjugation and/or with increase in the number of alkyl substituents.

To account:

For the difference between the UV absorption maxima of benzene (204 nm) and para toluidine (235 nm).
