In this short review, we attempt to unfold various aspects of excited-state intramolecular
proton transfer (ESIPT) from the studies that are available up to date. Since Weller's …

Charge and proton transfer reactions in the excited states of organic dyes can be coupled in
many different ways. Despite the complementarity of charges, they can occur on different …

Abstract The “Excited-State Intramolecular Proton Transfer”(ESIPT) reactions in a number of
organic fluorophores are among the fastest basic chemical reactions known so far and their …

Internal Stark effect (or internal electrochromy) consists of the shift of light absorption and
emission bands under the influence of electric field produced by proximal charges. In the …

3-Hydroxychromones (3HCs) are fluorescent dyes, which respond to solvent perturbations
by shifts and changes in the relative intensity of the two well-separated bands in the …

Picosecond time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy has been applied to the studies of
excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) dynamics in two 4 '-(dialkylamino)-3 …

Photophysical behavior of 3-hydroxyflavone (HF), a molecule that exhibits excited-state
intramolecular proton-transfer reaction and has been studied extensively in the past, has …

Enantioselective syntheses of methyl rocaglate and the related natural products
rocaglamide and rocaglaol are outlined. The approach involves enantioselective [3+ 2] …

A unified biomimetic approach to the aglain− forbaglin− rocaglamide classes of natural
products is reported. The approach involves photogeneration of oxidopyryliums via excited …

We address the important, frequently discussed, and still unresolved question of the role of
solute− solvent hydrogen bonding in modulating the excited-state intramolecular proton …
