NAME: benzene
FORMULA: C6H6
AUTHOR(YEAR): Pickett(1951)
T: 298K
λ: 175.9-203.7nm(max)
BIBLIOGRAPHY: L.W. Pickett, M. Muntz, and E.M. McPherson, "Vacuum ultraviolet absorption spectra of cyclic compounds. I. Cyclohexane, cyclohexene, cyclopentane, cyclopentene and benzene", J. Am. Chem. Soc. 73, 4862-4865 (1951); DOI: 10.1021/ja01154a116
COMMENTS: Absorption measurement using a Hilger fluorite prism spectrograph with a hydrogen lamp, and photometrical analysis of the photographic plates

Extinction coefficients for the absorption maxima listed in Table I have been converted to absorption cross sections (conversion factor 3.8235×10-21)
