Abstract

Steady-state and time resolved fluorescence anisotropy measurements were carried out to study the rotational diffusion dynamics of UVITEX-OB (U-OB) in series of alcohols, alkanes and binary mixtures of toluene and butanol at room temperature. The experimentally measured rotational reorientation times were compared with those estimated by the hydrodynamic and molecular models developed for microscopic friction. The experimental results are in good agreement with theoretical slip hydrodynamics and a deviation towards subslip behavior is noted. Also a faster rotation of the probe in binary mixture of toluene and butanol is noted as compared to that in alcohols and alkanes.
