The isosbestic points indicate presence of only one spectrally distinct intermediate species in the measured region of the spectrum in this time window (from microseconds to milliseconds).
6 ppm could be reasonably well approximated as superposition of broad and narrow spectra as is evidenced by the presence of isosbestic points in the superimposed spectra.
First, well-defined isosbestic points are observed in the BR films at [asymptotically =]608 nm as well as at ~458 nm (Fig.
