All life appears to be nurtured by the excitation of electrons by light in photosynthesis.
The vision enjoyed by higher life forms begins with the electronic excitation of a conjugated polyene.

“Quenching” is a generic term usually referring to a process that leads to a decrease in fluorescence.... (quenching is therefore technically a form of internal conversion)

“Quenching andInternal Conversion”Very important
IN the NATURAL WORLDChlorophyll fluoresces if not doing photosynthesis;Using the light to make glucose is quenching
Our visual pigments in the retina do fast internal conversion, by cis-trans isomerization and do not fluoresce

Another kind of quenching: Forster Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET)
The FIRST Step of Photosynthesis: is FRET between “light harvesting” chlorophylls funneling the energy of any absorbed photon to the reaction center chlorophyll.

2.6 Fluorescence Quenching (From Theory Handout)
In fluid solutions, QUENCHING involves a diffusion controlled, collisional interaction between the fluorophore and quencher.
What can happen following absorption of a photon?Absorption: M + hν (photon) M* rate: = ε(λ) [M] x (Intensity of light)Fluorescence: M* M + hν’ rate = krad [M*]Internal conversion: M* M + heat rate = kic [M*] Intersystem crossing M* M(triplet) + heat rate = kisc [M*]Quenching: M* + Q M + Q + heat rate = kq[Q][M*]Fluorescence Quantum yield = Φf = the rate of fluorescing divided by the
total rate of leaving the excited state:

maximum molar decadic extinction coefficient, εmax = 92,300 M-1cm-1 to find the concentration A= εCx
For fluorescein, Φf = 0.97, τrad = 4.74 ns so krad= 2.1 x 108 kic + kisc =7 x 106 s-1
For quenching by iodide ion, kq=2 x 109 M-1s-1.
![Page 24: Last week: Part I.A: Introduction to steady state spectra ...Broadened calculated spectra . The spectral width of each line of the upwardly displaced spectra is determined by a Gaussian](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071102/5fdb337aa57fbf2b9e0b7776/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

We will measure kq from the Stern-Volmer Eq.
Rate of collisions = kq [M*][Q]Assume every collision quenches. (Diffusion
Controlled)Memorize that this kq for small molecules ison the order of 109 M-1 s-1 in water.
Depends only on the frictional coefficient (size)
Diffusion coefficient = kBT/frictional coefficient
We will also make use of the maximum molar decadic extinction coefficient, εmax = 92,300 M-1cm-1 to find the concentration A= εCx

4.2.3 Fluorescence Quenching by Iodide 1. Calculate he quantum yield for each concentration of the iodide, [Q], using numbers from the
Theory document and Compare the measured ratio of the peak height of the quenched cases to the
unquenched peak with the calculated values.
2., the resulting equation is the widely used Stern-Volmer equation:where τ0 is the lifetime in the absence of the quencher, (krad +kic + kisc)-1, I and I0 are the intensities in the presence and absence of quencher, respectively, and kq is the diffusion-controlled quenching rate. The product kqτ0 is known as the Stern-Volmer constant, Ksv.
3. Plot I/I0 I0/I vs. [Q]. Do you get a straight line? What is the Stern-Volmer constant determined from your plot?
