Charge transfer complexes of iodine with nicotinamide and nicotinnitrile have been studied spectrophotometrically. An isobestic point occurring at 467 mμ and 474 mμ in the iodine amide and iodine nitrile systems have been observed. The λmax for the two system of complexes is found to be at 414 mμ and 428 mμ respectively in the blue shifted band of the iodine. Out of the two sites for the interaction, the nitrogen atom of the pyridine nucleus has been considered to be the site for interaction.
