Second communication on general relationships between color and structure in organic compounds. 1st communication: [2a]; 3rd communication: [2b].
Abstract
Dye molecules containing two or more polymethine structural units, or at least one polymethine and one polyene structural unit, generally exhibit coupling effects that determine the spectroscopic behavior and other physicochemical properties of the substance. The coupling concept can be used inter alia to fit the quinone dyestuffs, the indigoids, and the indanthrenes into a general poymethine color system and to perdict new dye structures.

- 38 Owing to the common pair of electrons, each of the polymethine structural units has one π-electron less. To demonstrate the polymethine-like electronic structure of the individual systems (6 π electrons to 5 chain atoms), this is indicated in(18b) by the expression (6 – 1)π. Structure (18b) corresponds to the resonance [19d] involving the non-polar structure and the two polar structures suggested by F. Arndt and B. Eistert [39]
