Abstract

Anthracene molecule possesses remarkable optical activity and till today this molecule is of special interest of scientists. Present study is focused on the study of effects of Chloride, Sulfate, Nitrate and Ferrate salts on absorption and emission spectra of targeted fluorophore in carbontetrachloride, chloroform, dichloromethane and methanol. Prominent solvatochromic effects shows dependence of HOMO-LUMO orbitals on solvent polarity. Anthracene molecules exhibits changes in absorption and emission spectra, and show both ON and ON-OFF behavior on addition of said ions. Based on experimental results it was concluded that fluorophore molecule could be used more effectively as UV-Visible (UV-V) sensors in comparison to the emission sensor.
