Question

What is the wavelength of maximum absorption by theobromine of ultraviolet-visible light?

Answer 1

Theobromine has a maximum absorption in the ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectrum at a wavelength of approximately 270 nanometers (nm). This absorption is largely due to the presence of its aromatic ring and other electronic transitions. Keep in mind that specific conditions in solutions, such as solvent and concentration, can slightly affect absorption characteristics.
