Acenaphthene (AN) has been found to form a 1: 1: 1 inclusion compound by complexing with a 1: 1 inclusion compound of 0-cyclodextrin (CDx) and alcohol. Of the primary alcohols examined, 1-propanol most easily associates with a 1: 1 inclusion compound of CDx and AN. When brominated alcohol is included in the 1: 1: 1 inclusion compound, a room-temperature phosphorescence of AN is induced by a heavy-atom effect. From experiments on the AN phosphorescence quenching by NaN02, we have estimated a rate constant (k3) for the association of AN with CDx, which already accommodates a 2-bromoethanol (BE) molecule, to be 1 X 1010 mol-1 dm1 23 s" 1 and a rate constant (k4) for the dissociation of AN from the 1: 1: 1 inclusion compound including BEto be 8 X 104 s" 1. In the CDx-BE-AN system, k3 is 2 orders of magnitude larger than the rate constant (k,) for the association with free CDx into which BE is not incorporated, whereas k4 is 1 order of magnitude smaller than the rate constant (k2) for the dissociation from the 1: 1 inclusion compound of CDx with AN. These findings indicate that a guest molecule (BE) inside the CDx cavity accelerates the association rate of AN with CDx and conversely decelerates the dissociation rate of AN from the 1: 1: 1 inclusion compound.Room temperature phosphorescences of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons such as acenaphthene (AN), naphthalene, and pyrene are observed not only in micellar solutions containing Tl+ as a heavy-atom perturbe/" 4 but also in cyclodextrin solutions containing 1, 2-dibromoethane. 4· 5 As a phosphorescence-inducing mechanism in cyclodextrin solutions, Scypinsky and Cline Love have proposed the formation of a trimolecular complexamong a luminophor, cyclodextrin, and 1, 2-dibromoethane. 5 Usingtheir technique with cyclodextrin, one can obtain reproducible, good-quality room-temperature phosphorescence spectra. In a previous paper, 6 we have reported that a self-association occurs between two 1: 1 inclusion compounds of 0-cyclodextrin (CDx) with naphthalene. Subsequently, it has been found that a 1: 1 inclusion compound of CDx with pyrene further associates with a primary or cyclic alcohol molecule to produce a 1: 1: 1 inclusion compound. 7 Because pyrene does notdeeply enter the
