Abstract:
The role of another excited pyrene molecule in the vicinity of an excited pyrene molecule undergoing electron transfer (ET) process with a N,N,-dimethylaniline molecule has been explored in non-polar and polar solvents where specifically solvent mediated nature of ET is prominent. Analytic expression has been derived for the dependence of ET kinetics on pyrene concentration in the experimental conditions normally encountered in sub-nanosecond time correlated single photon counting (TCSPC) apparatus which is mostly used. The life time data has been explained on the basis of present day understanding.

SN2 Reaction: Kinetics
In a chemical reaction, a relationship exists between the concentration of reactants and the rate at which the reaction proceeds. The study to measure this relationship is known as the kinetics of a chemical reaction. Kinetic studies are used to deduce the rate law of a chemical reaction, which provides information about the species involved during the transition state of the rate-determining step. Thus, kinetic studies help to derive the mechanism of a...
