The fluorescence quenching of 9-Aminoacridine by certain estrogens and flavonoids in water was studied using absorption, steady state and time-resolved measurements. The bimolecular quenching rate constants for the chosen estrogens and flavonoids were found to be in the range of 3.2–9.2×10 11 and 0.36–14.46×10 11 M −1 s −1 , respectively. From lifetime measurement we observed that the quenching was mainly due to static mechanism through ground state complex formation. The binding constant (K) and the number of binding sites (n) were calculated based on the fluorescence quenching data. The free energy change (ΔG et ) for electron transfer process was calculated by Rehm–Weller equation.
