Abstract:
The interaction of acriflavine with uracils was investigated by using spectroscopic tools viz., UV-Vis absorption, steady state and time resolved fluorescence measurements. The spectroscopic data were analyzed using Stern-Volmer equation to determine the quenching process. The bimolecular quenching rate constant (k(q)), binding constant (K) and number of binding sites (n) were calculated at different temperature from the relevant fluorescence data. The experimental results obtained from life-time measurement indicate that the quenching mechanism was static via the formation of ground state complex. The free energy change (ΔGet) for electron transfer process was calculated by Rehm-Weller equation. The existence of binding forces and the interactions of acriflavine with uracils were examined.

However, the stretching absorptions for the C=O bond vary depending on the structure of carboxylic acids. The C=O bond of the free carboxylic acids shows a higher stretching frequency, 1760 cm−1, while H-bonded carboxylic acids (dimers) exhibit stretching absorptions at a lower frequency, 1710 cm−1. The C=O bond of the...
