Abstract

Raman and SER spectra of 1-H-2 (tolylazo) imidazole (Tai H) are reported for the first time. Monomolecular layer of TaiH is formed on silver nano particles (SNPs) at a concentration of 4.93×10-6 M in Ag-sol. TaiH molecules are adsorbed on to SNPs the through the imidazole N atom and undergo trans-to-cis dark isomerization as evidenced by the appearance of signature cis-peaks and the UV-Vis absorption spectra. Stable non-aggregated SNPs are resulted by the interaction of TaiH and the particle size is significantly reduced. DFT calculations based on single Ag-atom model are in excellent agreement with experimental observations.
