Ik. Lednev et al., QUENCHING OF LUMINESCENCE FROM AMPHIPHILIC TRIS(BIPYRIDYL)RUTHENIUM DERIVATIVES BY ACETYLANTHRACENE IN A TRITON X-100 MICELLE SOLUTION, High energy chemistry, 28(1), 1994, pp. 55-58
The efficiency of luminescence quenching depending on the concentratio
n of a hydrophobic energy acceptor (acetylanthracene) in a nonionic wa
ter-Triton X-100 micelle system was studied for a tris(bipyridyl)-ruth
enium(II) complex and its three amphiphilic derivatives. A statistical
model of the process was proposed and applied for the estimation of t
he intramicellar rate constants of luminescence quenching and the solu
bilization constants of ruthenium complexes.
