Abstract

The visualization of solid-state reactions of bis-O-metallated phenolphthaleins and xylenolphthaleins (M=HgC6H4OMe, AuPPh3) with bromides, which has been discovered for the first time, was studied by IR and electronic reflectance spectroscopy. The appearance of intense coloration (purple, violet, or blue) after short-term grinding of colorless or faintly colored solid samples with salts is due to their ionization with the formation of ion pairs or dianions depending on the nature of the counterion. The reaction affects only a small fraction of the molecules in the surface layers of the metallocomplexes.
