✦ Synopsis


The absorption and fluorescence spectra of 7-aminocoumarins and 7-aminocarbostyrils with different degrees of alkylation were studied in Zpropanol (IP), polyfluorinated alcohols and water. The spectral properties of substituted 7-aminocoumarins and 7-aminocarbostyrils in hexafluoro-2-propanol (HFP) are very different from those in 2propanol due to the strong hydrogen-bonding (HB) interaction between the solute and the solvent (HFP). The spectral behaviour can be explained in terms of the strength of the HB interaction which depends on the degree of alkylation of the amino group and the electron affinity of the electron-accepting moiety. The absorption spectra indicate that a structural change at the amino nitrogen is induced on formation of strong hydrogen bonds.
