excitation and emission wavelengths◦ Since pyrene monomer and excimer fluoresce at
distinct wavelengths, monomer and excimer decays can be acquired separately◦ Can determine kq, the quenching rate constant

Scenario 3◦ For G1:
◦ For G2-G4:
◦ Result: For G2-G4, rc corresponded to pyrene attachment point minus 1-2 carbons!

The decrease in IE/IM ratio is due to residual pyrenebutyric acidAt generations > 1, internal steric hindrance may exclude pyrene to the outer spherical shell defined by the arms of the dendrimer molecules
