What is Woodward-Fieser Rules for λmax Prediction about?

The Woodward–Fieser Rules are empirical guidelines for predicting the absorption maximum (λmax) of conjugated systems in UV-Visible spectroscopy, developed by R.B. Woodward and L. Fieser. The rules establish base values for various conjugated compounds and provide increment values for substituents and additional conjugation, indicating that more conjugation results in a longer wavelength (bathochromic shift). These rules are particularly useful for predicting UV absorption in drugs and organic molecules.
