The blue colored complex between poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and iodine was prepared at 5°C by mixing an aqueous solution of PVA with an aqueous ethanolic solution of iodine containing boric acid. The absorption spectrum of the system shows bands at 226 nm (A), 290 nm (B), 355 nm (C), and 650 nm (D). Their relative absorbances change largely depending on temperature. When the system is gradually warmed, the chromophoric band D decays and the intensity of band A increases. By lowering the temperature again to 5°C the concentration of chromophore increases. It was found that the decay and the re-formation of the chromophore are reversible in the temperature range 5 to 15°C. Above 15°C, contrarily, hysteresis effects are encountered for the re-formation. Thus, when the chromophore is re-formed at 5°C, the spectra shows an isosbestic point at 420 nm, between bands C and D. The dependence on temperature of bands B and C is quite independent from each other, which strongly indicates that the latter band should be assigned to another iodide species than the I-3 ion (band B) and the I- ion (band A). Based on these experimental data a new mechanism is proposed involving the complex ion I-3 · I2 which is supposed to be a precursor of the chromophoric pentaiodide ion I5-.
