✦ Synopsis


The strong bathochromic shift of the flavin spectra occurring by interaction with Ag^+^ can also be obtained with Cu^+^ and Hg^2+^, but not with other metalions. Two kinds of metal‐isoalloxazin‐interaction must be discerned, a loose one with the free ligand and a very strong one with the ligand anion. 1:1‐Complexes are preferably built up, which are shown to be trigonal chelates of oxinate type and whose color is due to electron transfer from Ag^+^ to flavoquinone giving rise to a Ag^2+^‐flavosemiquinone mesomeric state responsible for the specific chelating qualities.
