Abstract

The fluorescence quenching of Eosin by certain dyes has been investigated using steady state technique. The dyes used are Uniblue-A, Acid blue 129, Alizarin, Alizarin red S, Erichrome Black T, Tartrazine, Methyl orange, Methyl red, Acid orange 63, Congo red. The quenching was found to obey the Stern-Volmer equation and the corresponding Stern-Volmer plots were linear in the range of quencher concentration used [0−5×105] M. The quenching rate constant (kq) is in the range of 0.85–26.65×1012 M1s1. The quenching mechanism is discussed on the basis of the quenching rate constants as well as the reduction potential of the dyes. Rehm-Weller equation is applied for the calculation of free energy change (ΔGet).
