Abstract
Rotational dynamics of 3-(benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)-7-(diethylamino)-2 H-chromen-2-one (3BT7D2H-one) probe in non-polar aprotic 1,4 dioxane, toluene and cyclohexane solvents of different and comparable viscosity are studied with varying temperature using steady-state and fluorescence depolarization technique. The experimental reorientation time is compared with the hydrodynamic Stoke's-Einstein-Debye(SED). The experimentally measured rotational reorientation times are higher in 1,4 dioxane attributed to its solvent viscosity. In cyclohexane, the solute rotational dynamics behavior shows a transition from sub-slip to SED slip boundary conditions with varying temperatures. Solvent viscosity, size, and subtle changes in the molecular shape of solute play an important role in the rotational dynamics of polar probes in non-polar aprotic solvents.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Fluorescence is an international forum for the publication of peer-reviewed original articles that advance the practice of this established spectroscopic technique. Topics covered include advances in theory/and or data analysis, studies of the photophysics of aromatic molecules, solvent, and environmental effects, development of stationary or time-resolved measurements, advances in fluorescence microscopy, imaging, photobleaching/recovery measurements, and/or phosphorescence for studies of cell biology, chemical biology and the advanced uses of fluorescence in flow cytometry/analysis, immunology, high throughput screening/drug discovery, DNA sequencing/arrays, genomics and proteomics. Typical applications might include studies of macromolecular dynamics and conformation, intracellular chemistry, and gene expression. The journal also publishes papers that describe the synthesis and characterization of new fluorophores, particularly those displaying unique sensitivities and/or optical properties. In addition to original articles, the Journal also publishes reviews, rapid communications, short communications, letters to the editor, topical news articles, and technical and design notes.
