Abstract
Solvation characteristics of 2,6-diphenyl-4-(2,4,6-triphenyl-1-pyridino)phenolate in completely miscible ternary solvent mixtures (viz., methanol + acetone + water, methanol + acetone + benzene, and methanol + chloroform + benzene) have been studied by using an electronic spectroscopic procedure. The transition energy (E) corresponding to the charge-transfer band maximum of the solute in a ternary solvent mixture differs significantly from the average E-values in the component solvents weighted by the mole fraction of the solvents. A two-phase model of solvation has been invoked to explain the results. The excess or deficit of solvent components in the local region of the solute molecule over that in the bulk has been estimated using the knowledge of solvation in binary solvent mixtures.
