15. It is not clear as to the origin of the small differences in Stern-Volmer quenching constants between 2 and 3 (for 1). While 3 might be expected to quench at longer range than 2 (energy transfer for 3 vs electron transfer for 2), the greater net charge on 2 may result in its having a stronger association constant with 1.
