Abstract:
Infrared spectra of some flavonoids and quercetin and morin sulfonic derivatives were recorded. The spectral data of sodium salts of quercetin and morin sulfonic acids were interpreted as indicating the near position valency band of the carbonyl group in relation to its position in quercetin and morin. The distinct shift of this band in quercetin-5'-sulfonic acid (QSA) may probably be a result of the occurrence of an intramolecular proton transfer from the sulfonic -SO3H to the oxygen of -C=O group.

IR Spectrum
Transmittance is defined as the ratio of the radiant power passing through a sample to that from the radiation's source. Multiplying the transmittance by 100 gives the percent transmittance (%T), which varies between 100% (no absorption) and 0% (complete...

However, the stretching absorptions for the C=O bond vary depending on the structure of carboxylic acids. The C=O bond of the free carboxylic acids shows a higher stretching frequency, 1760 cm−1, while H-bonded carboxylic acids (dimers) exhibit stretching absorptions at a lower frequency, 1710 cm−1. The C=O bond of the...
