Studies of molecular complexes of some π- and n-donors with iodine by the constant activity method

Abstract

The iodine complexes of naphthalene, biphenyl, hexamethylbenzene, aniline, and o-toluidine in carbon tetrachloride were studied by using the constant activity method. The association constants and the heats of formation of the complexes were determined and the results are compared with those obtained by using conventional spectral methods. The blue-shifted iodine band maxima were determined directly.
