Abstract
Vibrational analyses, of the electronic bands of 1-hydroxynaphthalene and 2-hydroxynaphthalene corresponding to the 312 nm electronic transition in naphthalene, have been carried out from the vapour phase absorption spectra recorded under high resolution. It is found that the prominent vibronic bands owe their large intensities to a different vibronic interaction than that in naphthalene.
