Abstract
The charge-transfer interaction between an aromatic amine (p-toluidine) and a halogen (iodine) is investigated in different solvents. The effects of the solvent dielectric constant, of the ionic strength and of the light absorbed on the transformation of the intermediate “outer” complex into a polar “inner” structure are studied. An overall reaction mechanism is suggested.
Zusammenfassung
Es wird die Charge-Transfer-Wechselwirkung zwischen einem aromatischen Amin (p-Toluidin) und einem Halogen (Jod) in verschiedenen Lösungsmitteln untersucht. Es wird der Einfluß der Dielektrizitätskonstante, der Ionenstärke und der Wellenlänge des absorbierten Lichtes auf die Umwandlung eines Zwischenkomplexes (als “outer”-Komplex bezeichnet) zu einer polaren “inner”-Komplexstruktur studiert. Es wird eine Hypothese über den gesamten Reaktionsmechanismus erstellt.
