✦ Synopsis

The chemiluminescent reaction of five N,N'-dialkyl-9,9'-biacridinium nitrates, Ct, C,, C,, C,, and C,,, with hydrogen peroxide in alkaline aqueous and micellar solutions is reported. The chemiluminescence and chemiexcitation yields in these media are reported together with the chemical yields and the fluorescence quantum yields of the long chain N-alkylacridones, the primary emitters, in cationic, anionic and non-ionic micellar media. Based on the chemihuninescence profiles the reaction rate constants and chemiluminescence intensities are reported.
