Application of UV-Visible spectrometry
Absorbing species
Organic compounds :
Any compound containing one or more of the chromophore groups is
potentially feasible.
Chromophores are unsaturated organic functional groups that absorb in the
ultraviolet or visible region.
Many nonabsorbing organic analytes can be determined by using them to
react with a chromophoric reagent to yield a product that absorbs in the UVvisible region.

Procedural details
1) Forming an absorbing species
2) Selection of measurement wavelength : Obtaining absorption spectra
Maximum sensitivity is realized when max for the analyte is selected, because the
change in absorption per unit concentration is the greatest.
3) Determination of the relationship between absorbance and concentration.

Simultaneous analysis of mixture
The total absorbance of a solution at any given wavelength is equal to the sum
of the absorbances of the individual components in the solution.

Spectrophotometric titrations
A photometric titration curve is a
plot of absorbance ( corrected for
volume change ) as a function of
titrant volume. The curve consists
of two straight-line portion of
differing slopes, one before and
one after the equivalence point.
The end point is taken as the
extrapolated intersection of the two
straight lines.
Spectrometric end-point detection
has been applied to all types of
reactions.
Although
stepwise
titration of mixtures is possible.

Methods for obtaining the stoichiometry of complex
(determination of the composition of complexes)
M + nL = MLn
1) Continuous-variation method
(Job’s method)
This method is based on the measure-ment
of a series of solutions in which molar
concentrations of two reactants vary but
their sum remains constant. The absorbance
of each solution is measured at a suitable
wavelength, corrected for any absorbance
the solution would have if no reaction
occurred, and plotted versus the mole
fraction of one reactant. A maximum in
absorbance occurs at the mole ratio
corresponding to the combining ratio of the
reactants.
Corrected A = measured A – AM – AL

metal to ligand complexes.
2) Mole-ratio method
A series of solution is prepared in
which the analytical concentration
of one reactant is held constant
while that of other is varied. A plot
of absorbance versus mole ratio of
the reactants is then prepared. If the
reaction is sufficiently complete,
two straight lines of different slopes
are obtained. The intersection of the
extrapolated lines corresponds to
the combining ratio in the complex.
Unlike the method of continuous
variations, the measured absorbance
does not have to be corrected by
subtracting the absorbance.

complexes.
3) Slope-ratio method
This method, used mainly in studying weak complexes, requires that the formation reaction can be
forced to completion with a large excess of either metal or ligand. Two sets of solutions are
prepared : The first contains various amounts of metal ion each with the same large excess of
ligand, while the second consists of various amounts of ligand each with the same large excess of
metal. For the reaction
xM + yL = MxLy
when L is present in large excess, the concentration of product formed is limited by the
concentration of the metal, or
[MxLy] = CM / x
If Beer’s law obtains,
A = b[MxLy] = bCM / x
and a plot of A versus CM will yield a straight line with a slope of b/x.
Similarly, for the solutions containing M in large excess,
[MxLy] = CL / y
A = b[MxLy] = bCL / y
The ratio of the two slopes is the combining ratio for the reaction
(bCM / x )(bCL / y) = x / y
Measuring an equilibrium constant : the Scatchard plot
P + X = PX
K = [PX] / [P][X]
Po = [P] + [PX]

[P] = Po – [PX]
 [PX] / [X] = K [P]
= K (Po – [PX])
A Scatchard plot is a graph of [PX]/[X] versus [PX]. The slope is –K.
The absorbaance of the solution at some wavelength is the sum of absorbances
of PX and P :
A = PX [PX] + P [P]
A = PX [PX] + Po [Po] – P [PX] = PX [PX] + Ao – P [PX]
A = [PX](PX – P ) + P Po = [PX]  + Ao
[PX] = ( A – Ao ) /  = A / 
 A /  [X] = K (Po – A /  )
 A / [X] = K  Po – KA

Derivative spectroscopy
If a spectrum is expressed as absorbance A as a function of wavelength , the derivative
spectra are
Zero order
A = f()
A =  bC
First order
dA / d = f’()
dA / d = (d/d )bC
Second order
d2A / d2 = f’’()
d2A / d2 = (d2/d2 )bC
The first derivative spectrum start and finish at zero, passes through zero at max of the
absorption band with first a positive and then a negative band, with the maximum and
minimum at the same wavelengths as the inflection points in the absorption band. This
bipolar function is characteristic of all the odd-order derivatives.
The most characteristic feature of the second order derivative is a negative band with the
minimum at the same wavelength as the maximum on the zero-order band. It also shows
two additional positive “satellite” bands on either side of the main band. The presence of
a strong negative or positive band, with the minimum or maximum at the same
wavelength as max of the absorbance band, is characteristic of the even-order derivatives.
Note that the number of bands observed is equal to the derivative order plus one.
