الوصف: | Electronic absorption spectrums of methylene blue (MB) in the concentration range wherein monomer–dimer equilibria exist have been systematically investigated in aqueous solutions of polyethylene glycols (PEG's) having molar mass 400, 1000 and 4000 g∙mol–1, at 298 K. The data on the absorption spectrums (550–700 nm) of MB are resolved to obtain monomer and dimer spectrums as well the geometrical details of the species (such as oscillatory strength, dipole moment etc.) are calculated. The molar absorption extinction coefficients for monomer and dimer cations of MB, the dimer dissociation constant values are calculated as a function of PEG concentrations. It has been noted that, absorption maximum occurs at 664 ± 1 and 605 ± 1 nm, respectively, for monomer and dimers which do not get affected much by presence of polymeric molecules and the data show perfect obedience of Beer–Lambert's law. The changes in dimer geometry from sandwich type to end–on–end type have been studied by applying exciton theory of Kasha et al. The dimer dissociation constant values at finite as well for infinitely dilute concentration of PEG's exhibit orderly amendment with respect to molar mass of PEG's and alteration in chain length of molecules. We report the free energy changes of transfer of dimeric cations of different concentrations from water to aqueous solutions of PEG's of fixed concentration, that is, to probe the interactions of water and PEG molecules with a hope of getting information about salting–in/salting–out effects, as well of binding of dye molecules with PEG's. We have suggested complexation of end hydroxylic groups of PEG's with dimer cations. The results are further interpreted as salting–in of PEG complex with MB–dimers only in the limit of infinite dilution (solute–solvent interactions) while salting–out of these complexed species is observed as a function of MB–dimer concentration. |
