Abstract Using the steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence anisotropy, the mobility of 5- (dimethylamino) naphthalene-1-sulfonyl (dansyl) fluorophore in homologous 1-[2-acetamido- 3-(1H-indol-3-yl) propanamido]-n-[5-(dimethylamino) naphthalene-1-sulfonamido] alkanes 1 was studied in binary solvents glycerol-water. Steady-state fluorescence data were evaluated by the generalized Perrin equation and the micro-Brownian motion of dansyl ...
