Abstract:

Fluorescence emission properties of pyrene, benzo[ghi]perylene, coronene, and ovalene dissolved in carbon tetrachloride, chloroform, and dichloromethane are reported. Measurements indicate that the emission intensities of select solutes are time dependent, and suggest that the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon molecule undergoes a photochemical reaction with the chlorinated solvent. The effect of dissolved oxygen on the experimental ratio of emission intensities is also reported.
