Abstract
Intramolecular electronic energy transfer has been observed in one isomer of the bichromophoric molecule D-Sp-A where the donor (D) is naphthalene, the spacer (Sp) is cyclohexane, and the acceptor (A) is dimethylaniline (DMA). Because the emission spectra of both the donor and acceptor overlap, the emission wavelength could not be used as a diagnostic for energy transfer. However, the donor and acceptor have very different fluorescence lifetimes, and large changes in the fluorescence lifetimes of the vibronic states of naphthalene due to the presence of DMA could be used as a measure of the mixing and energy transfer between the two chromophores
