Abstract

Fluorescence properties of 4-hydroxy-2-methylquinoline (1) and 2-(5-mercapto-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)-6-methylquinoline-4-ol (2) were studied in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) aqueous solutions. The fluorescence properties of 1 and 2 exhibit substantial dependence on the DMSO concentration. The fluorescence quantum yield $(\Phi_f)$ of 1 decreases upon adding DMSO due to the shift in the keto-enol (E) tautomeric equilibrium toward E form․ On the contrary 2 demonstrates a tendency of increase of $\Phi_f$ upon adding DMSO due to intermolecular charge transfer from DMSO to the aromatic ring of quinoline, which increases the electron density on the ring and hence the fluorescence efficiency.
