Abstract: Astrong and stable room temperature phosphorescence(RTP) signal of fluoren(Flu), acenaphthene(Ace) aqueous solution can be induced only by using Na 2SO3 as oxygen scavenger and KIas heavy atom perturber. The maximum phosphorescence intensity wavelengths are λexem=285/467, 286/493, 520 nm. The RTPintensity is very sensitive to the kind and amount of organic solvent added to the system. For a Flu(or Ace)/KI/Na 2SO3 aqueous solution system containing 1.0% acetonitrile, the RTPintensity is linear to Flu(or Ace) concentration in the range of 8.0×10-7 8.0×10-6 mol/Land 8.0×10-6 4.0×10-5 mol/Lor 8.0×10-7 2.8×10-6 mol/Land 2.8×10-6 4.0×10-5 mol/L. The calculated detection limit by methodology of IUPACbased on three times the standard deviation of background is 8.6×10-8 , 9.0×10-8 mol/Lrespectively. The relative standard deviation( n =7) is 2.4% or 3.5% for the system containing 1.2×10-5 mol/Lof Flu or Ace. The present work shows again that a protective medium is not necessary condition for the fluid RTPemission.
