A series of biaryl Schiff bases containing the nitro groups, 4‐XArCH═NArNO2‐4′ (XBANO2‐4′) and 4‐NO2ArCH═NArY‐4′ (4‐NO2BAY), were synthesized. Also, the fish sperm DNA (fsDNA) and silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) solutions were prepared. By mixing these compounds with fsDNA or AgNPs solution and determining the ultraviolet absorption spectra of the mixture solutions, an interesting phenomenon was found: a new absorption peak λmax,lim appeared in the (XBANO2‐4′)‐AgNPs solution, which was longer than the wavelength of λmax of XBANO2‐4′ solution. The new absorption peak in the (XBANO2‐4′)‐AgNPs solution was the complex spectrum originating from the electron transfer between XBANO2‐4′ and AgNPs. Whereas this phenomenon was not observed in the (4‐NO2BAY)‐AgNPs solutions, a quantitative correlation analysis was carried out with the measured spectral data, and the results show that the wave number νmax,lim of the λmax,lim is mainly affected by the excited‐state substituent constant
σCCex()X rather than the ground Hammett constant σ of the X group. The redshift magnitude Δνmax,WSL, namely, Δνmax,WSL = (1/λmax) − (1/λmax,lim), of the wavelength λmax,lim is related to the highest occupied molecular orbital and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital of XBANO2‐4′. The discovery of this new phenomenon is helpful to understanding the interaction between AgNPs‐organic compound supramolecular systems.
