    Abstract:
    Time-resolved emission spectra of 4-dimethylamino-4'-cyano-stilbene (DMACS) and 3,5,4'-trihydroxy-stilbene (resveratrol, RSV) in propylene glycol and in rigid silica xerogel matrix at 23°C were studied. For the polar molecule DMACS in propylene glycol, a 66nm shift of maximum wavelength of emission spectra was observed within 1ns after excitation, and most of the shift occurred during the first 200ps. For resveratrol in propylene glycol no such a shift was observed. The rigid silica environment eliminates some deactivation pathways and stabilizes spectroscopic properties of both molecules. Spectral properties of nonpolar and high dipole moment molecules in viscous liquids and rigid environments are compared. Results are explained on the basis of intramolecular processes and solute-solvent relaxation, as well.
