RESUMO
It was found that cations formed by the protonation of 2-amino-3-(2'-benzoxazolyl)-quinoline (ABO) and 2-amino-3-(2'-benzothiazolyl)-quinoline (ABT) at the nitrogen atom of the quinoline ring exhibit excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT). The two-band fluorescence of these cations is due to the emission from two species: the initial tautomer (short-wavelength band) and the ESIPT product (long-wavelength band). The relative intensity of the long-wavelength band depends on the basicity of the proton-accepting moiety and temperature. Quantum-chemical calculations demonstrated that ESIPT in cations involves overcoming a significant potential barrier, which increases with the decreasing basicity of the proton-accepting benzazole moiety. Using femtosecond absorption spectroscopy and nanosecond fluorescence spectroscopy, the effective ESIPT time in the studied cations was determined, which increased with decreasing temperature.
RESUMO
The effects of solvent and crown-ether moiety on spectral properties of pyridinium styryl dye were studied by steady-state absorption and fluorescent spectroscopy. Analysis of viscosity and polarity effects on fluorescence quantum yield and Stokes shift permitted us to suggest that there is a two stage process of excited state relaxation. The macrocyclic moiety has a little influence on the first stage of relaxation, which manifests itself in a magnitude of Stokes shift, but suppresses considerably the second stage, which manifests itself in a magnitude of fluorescence quantum yield. The metal complex shows an additional stage of excited state relaxation, namely, photorecoordination of metal cation within the macrocyclic cavity.
RESUMO
Excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) in o-tosylaminobenzaldehyde has been investigated. According to quantum-chemical calculations ESIPT in o-tosylaminobenzaldehyde is barrierless. Product of ESIPT undergoes efficient nonradiative deactivation caused by internal rotation of C(H)OH-group. The solvent orientational relaxation in anionic form of o-tosylaminobenzaldehyde was detected. The mechanism of anionic form fluorescence quenching at the addition of the base in a protic solvent is proposed. It consists in the intermolecular proton transfer from the protonated base to oxygen atom of aldehyde group followed by the internal rotation of C(H)OH-group.

The LE band fluorescence enhancement of p-N,N-dimethylaminobenzoic acid (DMABA) and p-N,N-dimethylaminobenzonitrile (DMABN) was found in aprotic acetonitrile and butyronitrile at the addition of LaCl(3). The corresponding ICT fluorescence band remains unchanged. This enhancement is explained by the decrease of the internal conversion rate constant in a coordination complex with LaCl(3). The formation of the coordination complex between DMABA and LaCl(3) in ethanol is accompanied by the efficient fluorescence quenching in LE and ICT bands, in parallel with the enhancement of ICT/LE emission ratio. The experimental data are well described by the proposed kinetic schemes.
RESUMO
The fluorescence and triplet state quenching of 7-amino-1,3-naphthalenesulfonic acid by paramagnetic metal ions have been investigated in an aqueous medium. The basic mechanism of the fluorescence quenching involves the static and dynamic electron transfer to the paramagnetic cation. The induced S(1)-->T(1) intersystem crossing at fluorescence quenching of the fluorophore by Cu2+ cation has been found. There is a correlation between triplet state quenching rate constants and values of the efficient paramagnetic susceptibility and spin of the cations. The rate constants for the quenching pathways have been calculated.

[formula: see text] The influence of catalysts, acid chlorides, and solvents in the acylation of methyl 2-methyl-4H-thieno[3,2-b]pyrrole-5-carboxylate was studied. Conditions for the regioselective acylation processes were found. Thienopyrrole-based photochrome was synthesized for the first time.
RESUMO
N-(1-Anthryl)-2,4,6-trimethyl-pyridinium (I), N-(2-anthryl)-2,4,6-trimethyl-pyridinium (II) and 10-(1-anthryl)-1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8-octahydro-acridinium cations (III) with anomalously high fluorescence Stokes' shift have been investigated. Fluorescence kinetics analysis at various temperatures showed that in the range 293-77 K, the radiative deactivation rate constants (kf) increase by 5.5 to 30 times. The low-temperature time-resolved emission spectra of I-III were found to be consistent with the model: A--> A*<--> B* where A* is the local excited twisted form and B* is the relaxed more planar, bent conformer of the molecule. The rate constants of the excited relaxed state formation (k1) and back reaction (k-1) of compounds studied were estimated.
RESUMO
The effects of the nature of solvent, temperature and complex formation with alkali and alkaline-earth metal cations, as well as protonation, on the efficiency and the kinetics of fluorescence of 3-azacrowned 7-diethylaminocoumarins have been studied. For the crown-ethers under investigation, the ratio of a dipole moment to the radius of Onsager cavity delta micro/rho is a constant value, and a macrocycle does not affect delta micro, and rho. The fluorescence of coumarin 1 in acetonitrile is quenched by an electron donor, triethylamine, with the Stern-Volmer constant being equal to (0.474+/-0.009) M(-1). The decrease in coumarin 1 fluorescence quantum yield upon the introduction of N-alkylazacrown moiety into position 3 is caused by an intramolecular photoinduced electron transfer from the nitrogen atom of macroheterocycle to the coumarin moiety, where the excitation is localized. The fluorescence quenching has an activation energy 2.32+/-0.05 kcal/mol in various hydrocarbons, and does not depend on the solvent viscosity. The fluorescence kinetics of free crowned coumarins in methanol is not monoexponential because of the existence of macrocycle conformers, or because of the hydrogen bond complex formation between the solvent and the nitrogen atom of macrocycle, in which the efficiency of intramolecular electron transfer is different. Upon complex formation with alkali and alkaline-earth metal cations and upon protonation, the fluorescence quantum yield increases and fluorescence decay becomes monoexponential.
