Description 915-919
Fluorescence quenching of four naphthalenediols (1,5-; 1,7-; 2,7-; 2,3-NDs) by transition metal ions (Cu<sup>2+</sup>, Co<sup>2+</sup>, Ni<sup>2+</sup>, Mn<sup>2+</sup>, Zn<sup>2+</sup>, Pb<sup>2+</sup>) has been investigated in 95% water-ethanol mixture. The dynamic quenching is appreciable with all metal ions except Pb<sup>2+</sup>. Cupric ion (Cu<sup>2+</sup>) is found to be an efficient quencher with all naphthalenediols and the sensitivity of 1,7-ND fluorescence is much higher than other naphthalenediols. The quenching rate constants (<em>k</em><sub>q</sub>) have been analyzed for various possible mechanisms. A good correlation of log <em>k</em><sub>q</sub> values with the reduction potentials of metal ions reveals the electron transfer quenching mechanism via a non-emissive exciplex with electron transfer from excited fluorophore to the metal ions. The anomalous behavior of 1,7-ND is explained by its point group symmetry and polarity.
