Abstract
The Stern-Volmer quenching constant for the quenching of anthracene fluorescence by bromide at 298.15 K shows a complex dependence on alcohol mole fraction in water plust-butyl alcohol mixtures. A similar pattern is observed at other temperatures except near 285 K, the Lumry temperature for aqueous systems.
