The benzophenone derivatives(4-CH3O-4'-NO2 and 3,4'-di-NO2) are synthesized by the Fridel-Craft acylation and the nitration method. Electrochemical redox potentials of the benzophenone derivatives (4-CH3O, H, 3-Cl, 3-NO2, 4-NO2, 4-CH3O-4'-NO2, 3,4'-di-NO2) are measured by using cyclic voltammometry. In the relationship of summing Hammett value and redox potential, we find a proportional constant(σ) that shows a good relation with an electrochemical property and a reactivity of the benzophenone derivatives. The benzophenone substituted with the electron donating groups(4-OCH3 and 4-OCH3-4'-NO2) are higher the energy in the LUMO level, then increasing a band-gap energy(Eg), their Egs are obtained as a 3.94 eV and 3.59 eV, respectively.
