Abstract
The n → π* transition of the carbonyl group has been studied in solvents of varying degree of polarity and hydrogen-bonding ability, in a number of aliphatic carbonyl derivatives. Evidence for hyperconjugation of the alkyl groups in the electronically excited states of molecules has been presented.Keywords
