Micellar Investigations on Hypersensitive Transitions for Doped Pr(III) Ion in Saturated Alcoholic Solution of Semicarbazones

Abstract

The interactions of semicarbazones (p-methoxyacetophenone semicarbazone, p-anisaldehyde semicarbazone and p-hydroxybenzaldehyde semicarbazone) with Pr(III) ion have been studied in different media. The absorption spectra have been recorded in visible range. Various energy and intensity parameters such as Racah (E^K), Slater-Condon (F_K), Lande (z_4f), Oscillator strength (P) and Judd-Ofelt parameter (T_l) etc. have been computed using partial and multiple regression methods. Also, the nephelauxetic ratio (b) and bonding parameter (b^½) have been evaluated. Results were compared for micellar medium and alcoholic medium.
