ABSTRACT:

The molecular interaction of ferrocen hydroxyaniline Schiff bases with 2,3-Dichloro-5.6-dicyanobenzoquinone (DDQ) Chloranil (CHL) and chloranil complexes (CHLC) in ethanol has been studied by electronic absorption, time resolved and solvents with different polarities. The system forms charge transfer (CT) complex characterized by an electronic absorption band. The association constants of the system were calculated at different temperatures within the range interval of 298-330oK, furthermore; the reaction rate constants, order of reaction and the enthalpy change of the association process were elucidated.

KEYWORDS: Charge-Transfer; Electronic absorption; Solvents effect and Dissociation constants
