tified again with the help of the data bank of the derivative spectra and also with the help of spectral records of the excitation and emission of basic compounds . So far, in the appl ication of SDSEFS, the investigations have been confined to the s ingle peak synchronous value whereas the authors have extended the confirmation of presence or otherwise of a compound in a mixture not only by the single peak, which may correspond to pure electronic transition but also to the peaks concerned with vibrational transition as wel l . The latter can be clearly obtained by varying either the concentration of the so
lution or the t1"A value which is the synchronous parameter. As far as the authors are awart; of, such an approach of identification through vibrational components has not been so far attempted, by any investigator. Whi le such a vibrational component is always avoided by others, in the present investigations it i s interesting to note that such appearances in the spectral features of the synchronous spectrum were also cons idered as equal ly as a guiding factor for the confirmation of the compounds in a mixture.
In the present paper, the authors attempted to identify sign ificant PAHs that are present in three different cut
fractions in the ranges 3S0-:nO°c, 37S-400°C and 400-530°C, obtained from the Indian Institute of Petroleum, Dehra Dun . The detai l s of the experimental method, the spectra recorded, analysis presented, the results obtained and the conclusions arrived at, are a l l described below.
2 Experimental Details The spectra have been recorded on Perkin-Elmer
LS-SB Luminescence Spectrometer. A 8.3W xenon arc lamp is used is used as an excitation source. The detection devise is a standard photomu ltipl ier. The wavelength accuracy and repeatabi l ity are +1- 2 nm and +1- I nm or 1 0 nm s l its, respectively . Thi s instrument has been interfaced to a computer through RS232C port. Al l the spectra have been recorded on DeskJet printer. The scan speed is set at 480 nm/min and s l i t widths of the excitation and emiss ion monochromators are 2 .5 nm each.
2.1 Reagents
All the basic compounds investigated in the present study are of very h igh purity (suppl ied by Aldrich Company) and are used as they are . The basic compounds studies are anthracene, I , 2- benzanthracene, chrysene, fluoranthene, phenanthrene and pyrene. The sol vent used is cyclohexane of HPLC grade. For basic compounds the concentrations of 1 0- 1 M, l a-
2M, 1 0-3 M,
1 0-4 M, 1 0-5 M and 1 0-6 M, in cyclohexane are prepared and for additional conformation other concentrations are also made u se of, if necessitated . In case of cuts, the
solutions are prepared '\) ( in ml) I V ( in ml) , where '\) i s cu t volume and V i s the solvent volume. The concentration used are I m ll4 ml , 3 mll2S ml , 2 m l/2S ml , I ml/2S ml, 0.1 mll2S ml, 0.OIm/2S ml and 0.002 mll2S ml , any intermediate concentration or further d i l ution of the concentration is also considered as and when it is found necessary. The experimental work consi sts of two parts:
( I ) The preparation of Data Bank of anthracene, fluoranthene, phenanthrene, pyrene, chrysene and 1 ,2-benzanthracene in different molar concentrations in cyclohexane and recording of ( i ) their excitation and emission spectra ( i i ) gross SEFS at different constant
values of /),"A fol lowed by their smoothened second derivat ive spectra. (2) the second palt of the experiment is on the three different cuts . The gross SEFS for each cut in different concentrations are recorded which are s imilarly fol lowed by their smoothened and second derivat ive spectra. The experimental deta i l s on the basic compounds and the cuts, the resu lts obtained, the discussions carried out for the final analysis of the spectra to detect the various PAHs in each cut are presented .
3 Discussion It is presented in two parts . Part A deal s with the Data
Bank of bas ic compounds and Part B deals with the identification of basic compounds in the cuts .
Part A - The Data Bank survey of the basic compounds anthracene, 1 ,2- benzanthracene, chrysene, fluoranthene, phenanthrene, and pyrene, which are l i kely to be present i n the cuts consists of the fol lowing steps: (a) The excitation and emission spectra of all the basic compounds at different concentrations are recorded, to have an idea of the range, overlaps and structure; ( b) The gross synchronous excitation spectra are recorded for each concentration varying the synchro
nous parameter /),"A which is bei ng maintained as cons tan t w h i l e s can n i n g s i m u l taneou s l y both the monochromators. From th i s one can infer a single peak, or the variations in the spectral appearance. With in
crease in the value of /),"A the spectra are found to be shifted to violet s ide; (c) The second derivat ive of gross SEFS is recorded to study its fi ner detai l s . The immed iate smoothing of the second derivative spectrum is carried out to record the specific values of the spectra peaks, which are final ly considered . By way of an i l lustration the gross SEFS spectra and the corresponding

In certain molecules a single peak in the synchronous
spectrum is observed only at higher values for D..'A which is, i n general , found to be the characteristic of the excitation spectrum. This peak is however observed in the synchronously scanned spectrum as a prominent one and can be considered as finger print .
As a first step by considering second derivative spectra of anthracene at various concentrations and for vari
ous D..'A values. a search is carried out to pitch upon a single prominent peak probably observable at l owest
possible D..'A values. If in any case the peak is observed along with additional structure then a cont inuous search is made through the various D..'A values unti l a prominent single peak is observed . This feature can be treated as replacement for the former observation . The same procedure is adopted for other molecu les as wel l .
Some of the basic compounds could not be prepared at higher concentrations. Even though higher concentrations are prepared for some compounds, a gross synchronous spectrum cou ld not be recorded . I n certain molecules the spectrum could not be recorded ti l l a particular D..'A value i s reached . In al l such cases also. the result ing single peak value can be taken as a prominent identifying feature. In addit ion to these, i t is felt that the synchronous spectra of each molecule at different values
of D..'A also characteristical ly show significant derivative spectra. A l l such peaks are also to be taken as additional Data Bank against each concentration, which are equal ly important in confirming the molecule. These are shown in Figs 2 and 3. The Data Bank* thus prepared is made use in identifying the PAHs in the various cuts.
PW1 B - Analysis and Identification of PAHs in various cuts :
The fol lowing procedure is adopted to establ ish correspondence between the concentration of the basic compounds and that of the cut through the ident ification of the finger print of the compound as gi ven in the Data Bank : ( I ) The search. for s imi larity and consistency of the spectra recorded for both the higher through lower concentrations of the bas ic compound with the spectra of the corresponding concentrations of the cut, is made
for the same D..'A value . This procedure is adopted for the
spcctra at a l l correspond ing values of f..'A; (2 ) Use of addi tional Data Bank i s a lso carried out with a view to observe certa in prominent features which are a l so readi ly recognizable i n the cuts . This add itional Data Bank genera l ly consists of peaks belonging to ei ther exeita-

tion or emission bands (vibrational) of the basic compounds; (3) As the first step the single peak value of the
spectrum at the lowest D..'A (electronic) is concentrated. If it is found necessary the i dentification of compound, is carried out with the help of the excitation and emission
bands which are observed at higher D..'A values. I f at the
lowest value of D..'A the synchronous spectrum is showing structure then it necessitates one to look into the spec
trum at h igher D..'A values for a single peak. An example of anthracene is detailed below:
In the SDSEFS of anthracene solutions at highest
concentration (1M) investigated, the peak is 399 nm (D..'A = 3 nm). A search for this peak at D..'A = 3 in the cut- I cou ld be noticed at 3 ml/2S ml and 2 mll2S ml as 398
nm and 399 nm respective ly . I t is not observed at higher concentration of the cut- I i .e . I mll4 m l . Proceeding to the next concentration ofO.SM, the peak observed at 396
nm can be compared with the peak derived at 1 .5 mll2S ml of the cut. It is noticed that the peak at the lower concentration of the anthracene could not be very prominently observed even at lower concentrations of the cut- I . It is also noticed that the basic anthracene peak value is not changed in lower concentration ( i .e . ) 1 0-4 M downwards. These matching detai l s are needed for the final analys is . The presence of the finger print peak can
also be seen i n the spectra recorded at various higher tJ.'A values. with a shift to violet . These resul ts throw l ight on the fol lowing:
( i) The presence of the anthracene in cut- I ; ( i i ) an approximate concentration of anthracene in a specific concentration of the cut: ( i i i ) an attempt to study of higher concentration more than I M for anthracene may not be of much use as the variation of the excitation peak is not very much different in 1 M, O.SM and 10- 1 M solutions; (iv) beyond 1 M concentration it may not be possible to detect the presence of anthracene as such if the cut contains more than this concentrat ion, one has to d i lute the cut suitabl y to detect the anthracene; (v) if at a particu lar concentration any compound is not detectable then it does not mean that it is not present in the cut but it necessitates one to experiment on different concentrations of the cut as wel l . S imilar procedure is adopted for detection of f1uoranthene. phenanthrene. pyrene and I ,2-benanthracenc as wel l . Thei r presence is a lso estab l i shed by usi ng the addi tional Data Bank as wel l in cut- I (Fig . 4) . It i s felt necessary that the absence of chrysene in cut- I needs to be estab l ished.

1,2-benzanthracene are prominentl y observed in the
concentrati on 0.002 mll2s ml and n.o I mll2s ml respec
ti ve ly, at all £1"A values.
Cut-2 - A nthracene and fiuoranthene are promi
nentl y observed at all £1"A va lues in I mll2s 1111 concentration of the cut. 1,2-benzanthracene and pyrene are
prom inentl y observed at all £1"A va lues in 0. 1 mll2S ml
concentrati on. Chrysene is c learl y observed in 0.0 1/25
ml concentrat ion at all £1"A va lues .
Cut-3 - 1,2-benzanthracene, fluoranthene and py
rene are prominentl y observed at all £1"A values in concentrati on 0. 1 mll2s ml of the cut. Anthracene is clearl y
observed onl y in concentration (l.002 mIlSO ml of the cut
at all £1"A va lues. Chrysene is prominentl y observed at all
£1A values in O.()I ml/2s ml concentration. From the
investigations carri ed out the foll ow ing sa lient features could be noticed.
(i) The Data Bank should be considered from as many
concentrations as poss ible for the basic compounds; (ii ) keeping in view the survey of the Data Bank, the sy n
chronous exc itat ion derivati ve spectra of the cut s are al so to be in ves tigated in as many concentrations as
poss ibl e; ( iii ) a qualitati ve correspondence could be es tabl ished bet ween the concentration of the bas ic compound w ith that of t he cut: ( i v) a complete survey of the sy nchronous deri vat i ve spectra at va ri ous concentra
ti ons of the cuts and at various £1"A va lues for the search
of the compounds through their Data Bank, recorded at
vari ous concentrat ion and vari ous £1A values of the basic
compounds is necessary. In addition , the exc itation and emi ss ion spectra also neeci to be considered as poin ts of
reference for the ex tension and structural detail s; (v) the
identi fication of the molecules through S DSEFS with
out resorting to any separati on technique:, is considered
to be worth pursuing if the data bank of the ex pected basic compound can be acqu ired as prerequi site.
