✦ Synopsis
Several features of the spectral shifts of nn* bands for aromatic hydrocarbons dissolved in n-alkane solvents have been explained by the existence of preferred relative orientations between the aromatic hydrocarbon and the nalkane molecules_ Theoretical evaluation of the interaction energy between naphthalene and n-pentane or n-octane actually display two preferred orientations-Moreover, these orientations are identical with those proposed, on steric grounds, for explaiiing the adsorption of alkanes on graphitic basal planes as proposed by Croszek.
