摘要
Fluorescence and fluorescence excitation spectra of terrylene in 9,10-dibromoanthracene matrix were studied at 5 K. Characteristic singlet oxygen phosphorescence, O-2((1)Delta(g)) -> O-2((3)Sigma(g)) with the line maximum at 1272.5 nm, was observed after excitation of terrylene molecules embedded into one of its two sites. It indicates that singlet oxygen, precursor in photo-oxidation of aromatic molecules, can be created only for those oxygen molecules which can form weak van der Waals complex with terrylene. According to quantum-chemical calculations terrylene and oxygen can form complex with the bonding energy 141 cm(-1), in which oxygen molecule is located along the long axis of terrylene, similar to 0.3 nm apart, with the molecular axis inclined by 110 degrees.
