TLDR
In this paper, trifluoroacetic acid is added to CH2Cl2 solutions of 1, 10-phenanthroline (1), 2, 9-diphenyl-1, 10phenanthropyl (2) and 2,9-dianisyl- 1,10-phennthroline(3) to cause strong changes in the absorption and fluorescence spectra at room temperature.Abstract:
Addition of trifluoroacetic acid to CH2Cl2 solutions of 1, 10-phenanthroline (1), 2,9-diphenyl-1, 10-phenanthroline (2) and 2,9-dianisyl-1, 10-phenanthroline (3) causes strong changes in the absorption and fluorescence spectra at room temperature. The low-energy absorption bands move to the red, while isosbestic points are maintained. The intensity of the structured, short-lived ππ* fluorescence band decreases and a new, unstructured longer-lived fluorescence band arises at longer wavelength. The number of equivalents of acid needed to obtain 50% protonation in the ground state increases in the series 3 < 2 < 1. The spectral changes can be fully reversed by addition of base. The proton affinity in the singlet excited state is higher than that in the ground state (ΔpKa≈ 14 units for 3), but the protonation and deprotonation processes are too slow to compete with the excited-state decay. In a rigid CH2Cl2 matrix at 77 K the shift of the fluorescence band upon protonation is smaller than that observed at room temperature. The effect of protonation on the phosphorescence band, which can be observed in the rigid CH2Cl2 matrix at 77 K, is very small.read more

Photochemistry and Photophysics of Coordination Compounds: Copper
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compare the properties of copper compounds and clusters and point out the limited significance of Cu(II) compounds in terms of photophysical properties, pointing out the criteria by which it is now possible to successfully design highly emissive [Cu(NN)2]- compounds, a rather elusive goal for a long time.

TL;DR: The conformation adopted by L(1)-L(3) in these species reveals the aliphatic portion of the rings folded over the plane containing the heteroaromatic moiety with the ligands trying to encapsulate the metal center within their cavity.

TL;DR: In this paper, an accurate study of the fluorescence decay and fluorescence quantum yield of three fluorescence standards is made, based on data on 9,10-diphenylanthracene, and it is concluded that the refractive index squared correction employed in relative quantum yield measurements in right-angle fluorometers is valid, and a valid comparison of radiative lifetimes of the same molecule measured in different solvents is required for the valid comparison.
