“…The structure of 3-acetyl-4-hydroxycoumarin has been assigned by UV (Klutchko et al, 1974;Traven et al, 1997), IR (Naceur et al, 2011;Eiden and Rademacher, 1983;Babin et al, 1981), MS (Naceur et al, 2010;Fischmeister et al, 2011;Sukdolak et al, 2004), NMR (Li et al, 2012a;Athanasellis et al, 2004;Kravchenko et al, 1999), fluorescence (Li et al, 2012a) and photoelectron (Traven et al, 2000) spectroscopy. The UV-Vis absorption and photoluminescence spectra of 3-acetyl-4-hydroxycoumarin in dilute dichloromethane solutions revealed a sharp absorption peak at 300 nm, with a shoulder at 341 nm (Li et al, 2012a).…”
