摘要
Abstract— The cations resulting from eleven retinal‐related polyenes by placing the latter in n‐butanol‐sulfuric acid were examined spectroscopically in an effort to explain the batho‐chromic effect observed in visual pigments. A comparison of the Λmax values, intensities and 1/2‐band widths of the model carbonium ions with those of the visual pigments does not seem to justify the representation of the chromophore in visual pigments as a pure carbonium ion.
