Abstract

AbstractThe fluorescence of Fluoroprobe, a molecule with an extremely polar excited state, is studied in matrices consisting of (macro)molecules which contain repeating units of different polarity. In matrices of low molecular weight Fluoroprobe displays its typical bathochromic shift with increasing contribution of polar groups, but an hypsochromic shift is observed in viscous or solid matrices of high molecular weight. This remarkable phenomenon is attributed to loss of mobility, which allows fluorescence of the probe to occur prior to full relaxation of the surrounding matrix sites.
