Data on charge-transfer interaction between 1-methyl-3-trifluoromethyl-2-pyrazoline-5-one with PA, CLA, TFQ, DDQ and TCNQ π-acceptors

Abstract

This article is related to a research paper entitled “Exploring the charge-transfer chemistry of fluorine-containing pyrazolin-5-ones: The complexation of 1-methyl-3-trifluoromethyl-2-pyrazoline-5-one with five π-acceptors” [J. Mol. Liq. 331 (2021) 115814] [1]. Herein we present photographic data that showed the color change after mixing methanolic solutions of 1-methyl-3-trifluoromethyl-2-pyrazoline-5-one (donor) with each of the investigated π-acceptor [picric acid (PA), chloranilic acid (CLA), fluoranil (TFQ), DDQ, and TCNQ]. Stoichiometry data for the interaction of the donor with all acceptors determined in solution state by the spectrophotometric titration method and the Job's continuous variation method were presented. The data presented are useful for understand that the charge-transfer (CT) complexation between a donor and an acceptor, generally, is characterized by a strong color change, and to understand the stoichiometry between these molecules.
