โฆ Synopsis
The fluorescence from the St state of pyrene solubilized within the hydrophobic region of sodium dodecyl sulfate micelles has been studied as a function of concentration of some cationic additives to the aqueous phase. At concentrations of added quencher below ca_ 10v3 mol dm -3 the fluorescence decay follows a complex rate law; at long time, the decay is exponential with the same time constant as that of pyrene (S,) without added quencher. The initial slope of the decay curve depends linearly on the concentration of added cation. These results are discussed in terms of the recently proposed model which requires the water-hydrocarbon interface to penetrate the micelle in the region of the probe. An analytical treatment is presented which, on the premises stated, serves to explain the observed kinetic features.

The ratio of peak III to peak I intensities of the so-called III and I fluorescence bands of pyrene increases dramatically when cupric ions are used as quenchers for pyrene emission in sodium dodecyl sulfate micelles. These results indicate a decrease in the polarity sensed by the probe when its lif
The problem of migration-assisted fluorescence quenching in monodisperse micellar systems is addressed theoretically in the general case where both probes and quenchers are allowed to migrate between micelles via a one-particle mechanism during the excitation lifetime.
