Resumen:
The photophysical behavior of five acridine(1,8)dione dyes of biological interest was studied by using absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy, photoacoustics and time resolved phosphorescence techniques. Results obtained in ethanol and acetonitrile solutions show that the main spectroscopic and photophysical parameters of these compounds depend strongly on both the solvent and the oxygen concentration. Oxygen completely quenched the triplet state of all dyes. In nitrogen-saturated solutions quantum efficiencies of triplet formation were higher in ethanol than in acetonitrile. We propose that Octahydro-ã-piridyl-acridine-1,8-dione in ethanol can be used as a calorimetric reference
