UV Visible Spectroscopy

Spectroscopy refers to the absorption or emission of light or other radiations by matter. When a substance or chemical absorbs light or radiation, they reach an excited state followed by de-excitation or emission of the light or radiation forming distinct spectra. UV-visible spectroscopy or ultraviolet-visible refers to the absorption and emission in the ultraviolet and visible regions of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Electrophilic aromatic substitutions proceed in two stages. 1. Attack of the aromatic ring on the electrophile. 2. Regeneration of the stable aromatic system by loss of a positively charged unit, usually a proton. Br Br₂/FeBr3 Draw one resonance structure for the intermediate formed when the electrophile is attacked by benzene in the reaction above. • You do not have to consider stereochemistry. • You do not have to explicitly draw H atoms. • Do not include lone pairs in your answer. They will not be considered in the grading.
