Question
Chapter 16, Problem 16.69P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The reason as to why ferulic acid, a natural product found in rice, oats and other plants, is both an antioxidant and a sunscreen is to be explained.
Concept introduction: Conjugated diene consists of two double bonds that are separated by a single bond, whereas isolated diene also consists of two double bond but they are separated by two or more carbon atoms.
The energy difference between the ground and excited state decreases when number of conjugated bonds increases. Due to this absorption shifts to the longer wavelengths.
