The nature and strength of the intermolecular interactions in the solutions of three azo-benzene derivatives (ADi, i=1, 2, 3) were established by solvatochromic effects in solvents with different electric permittivities, refractive indices and Kamlet-Taft constants. A quantum mechanical analysis corroborated with spectral data offered information about the excited state dipole moments and polarizabilities of the studied compounds. The separation of the supply of universal and specific interactions to the total spectral shift was made based on the regression coefficients from the equations describing the solvatochromic effect.

Two cycloimmonium ylids with pyridinium and iso-quinolinium as heterocycle and having common carbanion were studied from the point of view of the solvent influence on electronic absorption spectra in binary and ternary solutions. The supplies of the universal and specific interactions to the spectral shifts in the electronic absorption spectra of hydroxyl solutions were separated. The strength of the specific interactions of the ylid molecules with octanol was estimated by using ternary solutions in binary solvent Octanol+Dichloroethane, in which the universal interactions have similar strengths.

The electronic absorption spectra of 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene (DPH) were recorded in a great number of solvents with various physico-chemical properties. The dependence of the wavenumber in the maximum of the DPH vibronic bands on the solvent dispersion function demonstrates the prevalence of the dispersion interactions in the studied solutions. Some electro-optical parameters of DPH molecule were computed by HyperChem and were correlated with the results obtained from the solvatochromic effects on DPH.
