Abstract
Absorption spectra of ten 5-(4-substituted arylazo)-6-hydroxy-4-methyl-3-cyano-2-pyridones have been recorded in fifteen solvents in the range 200–600 nm. The substituents at the phenyl nucleus are as follows: OH, OCH 3, CH 3, C 2H 5, H, Cl, Br, I, COOH and NO 2. The effects of substituents on the absorption spectra of investigated compounds are interpreted by correlation of absorption frequencies with simple Hammett equation. The effects of solvent polarity and solvent/solute hydrogen bonding interactions are analyzed by means of linear solvation energy relationships concept proposed by Kamlet and Taft. The azo-hydrazone tuatomeric equilibration is found to depend upon substituents as well as on solvents.
