Abstract

Infrared spectroscopy studies of 2-acetylthiophene (ACTH) in 18 different organic solvents, both polar and non-polar, were undertaken to investigate the solvent–solute interactions. The frequencies of carbonyl stretching vibration υ(CO) of ACTH were correlated with the properties such as the solvent acceptor number (AN) and the linear solvation energy relationships (LSER). The solvent-induced stretching vibration frequency shifts showed a better correlation with the LSER than the AN. A six-membered ring-like hydrogen bonding structure was presented and the solvent effects of ACTH in alcohol solvents were investigated in detail.
