Abstract	Aggregation behavior of three kinds of benzindocarbocyanine dyes in aqueous methanol solution was studied by UV-Vis absorption spectrum. The results indicated that the three dyes all existed monomer-dimer equilibrium in aqueous methanol solution (concentration range 10^-5 to 10^-6 M) at 25.0~41.0℃ for Dye 1, 28.0~49.0℃ for Dye 2 and 26.0~47.0℃ for Dye 3. The fundamental property of the three dyes as the dimeric association constant KD, the dimeric free energy ΔG_D, the dimeric entropy ΔS_D, and the dimeric enthalpy ΔH_D were determined. The ΔHD of three dyes: Dye 1, Dye 2 and Dye 3 was -42.5, -15.1 and -18.9 kJ/mol, respectively. The experimental observations were the subject of a theoretical study including the ground-state geometries which were fully optimized using DFT at B3LYP/6-31G level. The effect of dye molecule structure on ΔH_D was discussed by theoretical calculations.
