Abstract

Based on the study of photochemical transformations of bisanthene in oxygen-containing solutions, it was established that the final product of this reaction is bisanthenequinone. It is shown that in the course of this oxidation reaction the intermediate compounds endomonoperoxide and bisanthene endobiperoxide are formed. Quantum-chemical calculation of the geometrical structure and electronic spectra of the endoperoxides has shown that they have a nonplanar structure, and their absorption spectra experience a large hypsochromic shift. The absorption and fluorescence spectra of solutions of bisanthene in different solvents at 300 and 77 K were investigated. The large Stokes shift of the fluorescence spectra of the solutions of bisanthene in benzene and in its methyl derivatives is explained by the action of intermolecular interactions. The quasi-line fluorescence spectra of solutions of bisanthene in the matrices of saturated hydrocarbons were recorded.
