Abstract
2-Aminoacridine has been used to extend the quantitation of excited-state proton-transfer kinetics in concentrated acid media to ≃13 M sulfuric acid. The reasons for the large discrepancy between the excited-state dissociation constant determined from kinetic measurements and that calculated from a thermodynamic cycle are discussed.
