Reverse solvatochromism in solvent binary mixtures: a case study using a 4-(nitrostyryl)phenolate as probe

Abstract

A 4-(nitrostyryl)phenolate was synthesized and its use in pure solvents revealed a reversion in solvatochromism. Solutions of a dye in binary solvent mixtures, using as components the solvents in the region of the occurrence of the reversion, provided th
