Abstract
Abstract— Absorption and emission spectra of bacteriochlorophyll c dissolved in a variety of solvents were measured and fluorescence quantum yields determined from the integrated emission spectra. Values for the emission maxima calculated from the positions and bandwidths of the red absorption band using the Stepanov relationship agreed closely with the experimental values. Fluorescence quantum yields varied between 0.10 in methanol and 0.36 in tetrahydrofuran and in dibutylamine. Fluorescence lifetimes were also determined for bacteriochlorophyll c in four of the solvents, and ranged from 2.7 ns in methanol to 7.6 ns in dimethylsulfoxide.
