Abstract

Quinoxaline derivatives are a great interest as fluorescent emitters for peroxyoxalate chemiluminescence. Reaction of peroxyoxalates such as bis-(2,4,6-trichlorophenyl) oxalate with H2O2 can transfer energy to fluorophore via formation of dioxetanedione intermediate. Two quinoxaline derivatives used as a fluorophore in this study which produce a green light in the chemiluminescence systems. The relationship between the chemiluminescence intensity and concentrations of fluorophore, peroxyoxalate, sodium salicylate and hydrogen peroxide was investigated. Kinetic parameters for the peroxyoxalate-chemiluminescence were also calculated from the computer fitting of the corresponding chemiluminescence intensity/time profiles. It was found that the biphenylquinoxaline can be used as an efficient green fluorescent emitter.
