Abstract

The photophysical and photochemical behavior of a series of a-[(N-methy1amino) alkyllstyrenes with two to four methylenes separating the styryl and amino groups and an (aminoalky1) indene have been investigated and the results compared to those for the intermolecular reaction of a-methylstyrene with diethylamine. Both inter-and intramolecular quenching of styrene fluorescence by the amine is observed, indicative of electron- ...
