Unreferenced date December 2009 Hypsochromic shift is a change of spectral band position in the absorption spectrum absorption , reflectance , transmittance , or emission spectrum of a molecule to a shorter wavelength higher frequency . Because the blue color in the visible spectrum has a lower wavelength than most other colors, this effect is also commonly called a blue shift . This can occur because of a change in environmental conditions for example, a change in solvent Chemical polarity polarity will result in solvatochromism . A series of structurally related molecules in a Substitution chemistry substitution series can also show a hypsochromic shift.

Hahn, Vitaly V. Kresin, and John H. Reynolds ref ref http texts.cdlib.org view?docId hb1r29n709&chunk.id div00032&brand calisphere&doc.view entire text University of California In Memoriam, 2000 Walter David Knight, Physics Berkeley 1919 2000 Professor Emeritus ref The Knight shift refers to the relative shift K in NMR frequency for atoms in a metal e.g. sodium compared with the same atoms in a nonmetallic environment e.g. sodium chloride . The observed shift reflects the local magnetic field produced at the sodium nucleus by the magnetization of the conduction electrons. The average local field in sodium augments the applied resonance field by approximately one part per 1000. In nonmetallic sodium chloride the local field is negligible in comparison. The Knight shift is due to the conduction band conduction electrons in metals. They introduce an extra effective field at the nuclear site, due to the spin physics spin orientations of the conduction electrons in the presence of an external field. This is responsible for the shift observed in the nuclear magnetic resonance. The shift comes from two sources, one is the Pauli paramagnetic spin susceptibility, the other is the s component wavefunctions at the nucleus. Depending on the electronic structure, the Knight shift may be temperature dependent. However, in metals which normally have a broad featureless electronic density of states, Knight shifts are temperature independent.

An NIH shift is a chemical rearrangement where a hydrogen atom on an aromatic ring undergoes an intramolecular migration primarily during a hydroxylation reaction. This process is also known as a 1,2 hydride shift. These shifts are often studied and observed by isotopic labeling . An example of an NIH shift is shown below Image Gen NIH shift.png 400px center Example of NIH shift In this example, a hydrogen atom has been isotopically labeled using deuterium shown in red . As the hydroxylase adds a hydroxyl the OH group , the labeled site shifts one position around the aromatic ring relative to the stationary methyl group CH sub 3 sub . Several hydroxylase enzymes are believed to incorporate an NIH shift in their mechanism, including 4 hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase and the tetrahydrobiopterin dependent hydroxylase s. The name NIH shift arises from the U.S. National Institutes of Health from where studies first reported observing this transformation. References cite journal author Guroff, G. Daly, J.W.
