Conclusions
-
1.
The electronic spectra of solutions of 4,6-bis-(phenylazo)-resorcinol, 2,4-bis-(phenylazo)-resorcinol, 2,4-bis-(phenylazo)-phenol, and bis-(phenylazo)-phloroglucinol in benzene and glacial acetic acid (GAC) have been studied.
-
2.
4, 6-bis-(Phenylazo)-resorcinol exists in two tautomeric forms — the true azo form and the quinone hydrazone form. 2,4-Bis-(phenylazo)-phenol exists in the true azo form. The broad absorption lines of 2,4-bis- (phenylazo)-resorcinol and bis- (phenylazo)-phloroglucinol could not be resolved.
-
3.
In the case of solutions of 4,6-bis-(phenylazo)-resorcinol in GAC a change with time in the tautomeric equilibrium between the true azo form and the quinone hydrazone form in the direction of the true azo form have been found
