Triplet ketone sensitizers are of central importance within the realm of photochemical
transformations. Although the radical-type character of triplet excited states of diaryl ketones …

ABSTRACT Photophysical properties of curcumin, 1, 7‐bis‐(4‐hydroxy‐3‐methoxy phenyl)‐
1, 6‐heptadiene‐2, 5‐dione, a pigment found in the rhizomes of Curcuma longa (turmeric) …

Interfaces are ubiquitous in the environment and many atmospheric key processes, such as
gas deposition, aerosol, and cloud formation are, at one stage or another, strongly impacted …

Ketoprofen (KTF) is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug frequently detected in natural and
engineering waters. Because KTF is particularly photolabile (half-life∼ 4 min), knowledge of …

The lowest lying triplet excited states of diaryl ketones are usually long lived and can be
photochemically generated with high quantum yields. Hence, compounds of this type are …

A combined femtosecond Kerr gated time-resolved fluorescence (fs-KTRF) and picosecond
Kerr gated time-resolved resonance Raman (ps-KTR3) study is reported for two p …

UV254 photolysis has increasingly been utilized for disinfection of water-born pathogens in
wastewater. During disinfection, wastewater-derived trace organic contaminants, such as …

We report an efficient triplet state self-quenching mechanism in crystals of eight
benzophenones, which included the parent structure (1), six 4, 4′-disubstituted compounds …

Inclusion complexes of mefenamic acid (MFA) and aceclofenac (ALF) with α-and β-
cyclodextrins (CDs) in aqueous medium were investigated by absorption, fluorescence, time …

The photophysics and photochemical reactions of 2-(1-hydroxyethyl) 9, 10-anthroquinone (2-
HEAQ) were studied using femtosecond transient absorption (fs-TA), nanosecond transient …
