Solvatochromism

Solvatochromism logo #21000 Solvatochromism is the ability of a chemical substance to change color due to a change in solvent polarity. Negative solvatochromism corresponds to hypsochromic shift (or blue shift) with increasing solvent polarity. The corresponding bathochromic shift (or red) is termed positive solvatochromism. The sign of the solvatochromism depends on the dif...
