Oxidation and reduction reactions govern a wide range of biotic and abiotic processes.
Among these are advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) and advanced reduction processes …

In the last decade, photochemical and photocatalytic applications have developed into one
of the dominant research fields in chemistry. However, mechanistic investigations to sustain …

A novel series of excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) emitters, namely,
DPNA, DPNA-F, and DPNA-t Bu, endowed with dual intramolecular hydrogen bonds, were …

Generation of singlet oxygen (1 O 2) with metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is limited by
either poor light harvesting ability of type I MOFs or low availability of type II MOFs. Herein …

Acetylacetone (AA) has proven to be a potent photo-activator for the decolorization of dyes.
However, there is very limited information on the quantitative structure–activity relationship …

Oxybenzone is a common constituent of many commercially available sunscreens providing
photoprotection from ultraviolet light incident on the skin. Femtosecond transient electronic …

The first steps in photochemical processes, such as photosynthesis or animal vision, involve
changes in electronic and geometric structure on extremely short time scales. Time-resolved …

Curcumin is attractive in photopolymerization especially in cationic photopolymerization,
because of its broad absorption and nontoxic properties. Curcuminoid (CMD) is a linear …

Avobenzone (AB) is a widely used UVA filter known to undergo irreversible
photodegradation. Here, we investigate the detailed pathways by which AB photodegrades …

Synthetic applications in photochemistry are booming. Despite great progress in the
development of new reactions, mechanistic investigations are still challenging. Therefore …
