Spectroscopy Analysis of the Ring Opening Reaction in Functionalized Spiropyran Films
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 February 2011
Abstract
In this work we used the Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy and UV/Vis spectroscopy to analyze the behaviour of self-ensemble films of spiropyran when the films were irradiated by UV. In UV/Vis spectroscopy is possible observe the generation of the absorption peak, at 575 nm, associated to the merocyanine state when the ring-opening process is induced by UV light. In ATR the kinetics of the ring-opening was determinate too; following the spectra changes in real time.
