9. In the region above 300 nm the only local absorption is a very weak (ε ≤ 100) n→π* transition of the acceptor.
10. The maximum of the structureless CT fluorescence of 2 is found at 471.5, 575, and 621 nm in cyclohexane, dichloromethane and acetonitrile as a solvent. In all solvents the excitation spectrum of this emission is identical in shape and structure to the absorption spectrum.
