Studies of cyclodextrin-enhanced room-temperature phosphorescence

Published

Journal Article

The enhancement of room-temperature phosphorescence by α-, β- and γ-cyclodextrins in the presence of heavy atoms is described for p-aminobenzoic acid, anthracene and six of its derivatives, dibenzofuran and some other compounds. The sensitivity can be improved by treating the filter paper substrate with the cyclodextrin (preferably β-cyclodextrin) or by mixing the analyte with β-cyclodextrin prior to sample spotting on the substrate. © 1989.
