Photoisomerization and Fluorescence Characteristics of Tetramethoxystilbene in Ionic Liquid
Photochemical behavior of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethoxystilbene (TMST) has been explored in ionic liquid. Two fluorescence components with the lifetime of 4.3 and 23.0 ns were observed for trans-TMST in ionic liquid solution. From this experimental evidence one could propose that ionic liquid may provide two different environments with highly different polarity, nonpolar and highly polar environments.
