Effect of β-cyclodextrin on the excited state proton transfer in 1-naphthol-2-sulfonate

Abstract
The photophysical properties of 1-naphthol-2-sulfonate (1-NOH-2-S) in various solvents and in aqueous β-cyclodextrin (CD) solution have been investigated. The fluorescence quantum yields in non-aqueous solvents are approximately 0.5, while in water the fluorescence quantum yield is 0.1. The fluorescence quantum yield doubled on the addition of β-CD. In aqueous solution, proton transfer to water takes place efficiently leading to the formation of the anion form with its longer wavelength emission broad band at about 460 nm. Any environmental changes have been found to affect the rate of deprotonation and subsequently the band intensity at 460 nm. In non-aqueous solution the anion emission band disappears completely. Upon the addition of β-CD to the aqueous solution of 1-NOH-2-S, the anion emission decreases with an increase in the intensity of the neutral form at 362 nm. Fluorescence measurements show 1:1 inclusion of 1-NOH-2-S in the β-CD cavity with an association constant of 1915 M-1using Benesi-Heldbrand treatment.1H NMR studies are used to confirm the inclusion and to provide information on the orientation of 1-NOH-2-S inside the cavity of β-CD. © 2001 Elsevier Science B.V.
