Time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) is the most widely-used electronic
structure method for excited states, due to a favorable combination of low cost and semi …

In contrast to the widely reported excited-state single proton-transfer, excited-state multiple
proton transfer (ESMPT) containing two or more intra-or inter-molecular proton transfers has …

In this work, we report a peculiar positive solvatochromism in the keto emission of the
acceptor-substituted 2-(2 '-hydroxyphenyl) benzoxazoles (HBO), which originates from the …

Excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) molecules are considered to be natural
born laser materials because of their intrinsic four-level system. Organic lasers based on …

The excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) mechanism in six amino 2-(2′-
hydroxyphenyl) benzazole derivatives were investigated in different solvents by means of …

We revisit the interpretative scheme (Luzanov et al., Theor Exp Chem 1974, 10, 354) of
singly excited configuration interaction (CIS) model given earlier at semiempirical level …

A new fluorescent zinc sensor was constructed based on cyclic and noncyclic Schiff's bases
obtained by the condensation of 4‑(diethylamino) salicylaldehyde and 2‑aminobenzenethio …

A new molecular design concept for colorless and multicolor light-emitting polyimides (PIs)
based on excited-state proton transfer is proposed. The ultraviolet− visible optical absorption …

Three new benzazole isothiocyanate fluorescent dyes, 2-(4′-isothiocyanate-2′-
hydroxyphenyl) benzoxazole, 2-(4′-isothiocyanate-2′-hydroxyphenyl) benzothiazole and …

ESIPT-inspired benzimidazolyl substituted fluorescein dyes were synthesized. PH-sensitivity
was determined by the photophysical property measured at a physiological possible pH …
