    The mechanism of intramolecular energy transfer in terminally substituted polyene molecules
    (1993) Holl, Norbert; Port, Helmut; Wolf, Hans Christoph; Strobel, Hartmut; Effenberger, Franz
    Absorption, fluorescence and excitation spectra of different terminally substituted polyenes have been recorded in the UV-Vis region. The observed intramolecular unidirectional energy transfer from a donor substituent to an acceptor at the other end of the chain is influenced but not inhibited by incorporation of a spacer into the polyene chain. In molecules without a spacer, internal conversion within the supermolecule can explain the observed transfer of energy. In molecules with a spacer interrupting the polyene chain the observed intramolecular energy transfer can be explained in terms of Förster transfer.

    Lowest excited singlet states of α-9-anthrylpolyenes
    (1993) Holl, Norbert; Emele, Peter; Port, Helmut; Wolf, Hans Christoph; Strobel, Hartmut; Kesmarszky, Thomas; Effenberger, Franz
    Properties of the electronically excited states of α-9-anthrylpolyenes are studied in n-hexane solutions by using optical absorption, emission and fluorescence excitation spectroscopy. The absorption spectra reveal a complex structure with contributions of both anthracene and polyene type bands but also of bands with mixed anthracence/polyene character. Small amounts of remaining impurities are chemically not separable but can be detected via fluorescence measurements. By computer-aided decomposition of spectra measured under variable selective excitation the actual, clearly chain-length dependent, fluorescences could be obtained.
