Abstract

The effect of cucurbit[7,8]urils (CB7, CB8) on photoprocesses in indocarbocyanine dyes has been studied. Complexation with CB7 and CB8 reveals bathochromic shifts of the maxima in the absorption and fluorescence spectra. Fluorescence enhancement and decreasing have been observed for the complexes with CB7 and CB8, respectively. The dyes and their complexes are capable of trans–cis photoisomerization and hardly undergo intersystem crossing to the triplet state. The rate of the thermal cis–trans isomerization reaction is decreased due to complexation.
