Abstract:

The absorption and fluorescence spectra of highly fluorescent industrially useful medium sized Red Mega 480 dye have been studied in various solvents at 298 K. The solute photophysical behavior depends strongly on the solute-solvent interactions. In order to understand the effect of inter molecular interactions on spectral behaviors of the dye in different solvents extent of this behavior can be analyzed by linear solvation energy relationships. In addition, ground and excited state dipole moments were evaluated by various methods. It is observed that excited state dipole moment (μe) is larger than the ground state (μg), absorption spectra show a bathochromic shift with increasing polarity indicating that transition involved is π→π(∗) and Onsager cavity radius is determined by atomic increment method.
