QUESTION:
The absorbance spectrum of 1,3-butadiene displays an absorption in the UV region (lmax=217 nm), while the absorption spectrum of 1,2-butadiene does not display a similar absorption. Explain.
ANSWER:Step 1 of 2
This problem tells us that 1,3 -butadiene has an absorption in the UV region \(\left(\lambda_{\max }=217 \mathrm{~nm}\right)\), while 1,2 -butadiene does not display something similar. We're asked to provide an explanation.
