UV/Vis absorption, emission, and excitation spectroscopy with various solvents (dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), N,N-Dimethylformamide (DMF), and tetrahydrofuran (THF) and Acetone) at two concentrations (10−4 and 10−5) Mol/L were used to investigate the spectra and photophysical properties of Acridone. Using the integrated emission spectra, the fluorescence quantum yields are calculated. The emission maxima were determined using the red absorption band’s positions and bandwidths. The maximum absorption and emission wavelengths were found to be 390–399 nm and 399–413 nm, respectively, resulting in Stokes shifts of 318.05 and 1142.62 cm-1. Fluorescence spectra have a broad spectral range so that as concentration is increased, each peak shifts toward a long wavelength. It has been discovered that as concentrations increase, the quantum efficiency decreases. The fluorescence quantum yield magnitude is affected by solvents, with THF having the highest value.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
