Hydrogen Bonding and Transfer in the Excited State

Excited-state hydrogen bonding effect on dynamic fluorescence of coumarin 102 chromophore in solution: A time-resolved fluorescence and theoretical study

“…Intermolecular hydrogen bond is a site-specific interaction between hydrogen donor and acceptor molecules, and it plays a key role in protic liquids such as water or alcohols and in the tertiary structure of proteins [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]. Therefore, the nature of hydrogen bond in solution is of particular interest and has been investigated extensively by various experimental and theoretical methods, since solute-solvent interactions play a fundamental role in molecular nonequilibrium processes in liquids [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23].…”

“…Intermolecular hydrogen bond is a site-specific interaction between hydrogen donor and acceptor molecules, and it plays a fundamental role in photophysics, photochemistry and photobiology [1][2][3][4][5]. Therefore, the nature of hydrogen bond in solution is of particular interest and has been investigated extensively by various experimental and theoretical methods [6][7][8][9][10][11].…”

Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory Study on Excited-State Hydrogen Bonding Dynamics of Acetic Acid Hydrates

“…When a solute with a polarizable functional group is dissolved into a protic solvent, the solute and the solvent molecules form an intermolecular hydrogen bond (H-bond) [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]. Intermolecular hydrogen bonding in solution, as a site-specific solute solvent interaction between hydrogen donor and acceptor molecules [13][14][15][16][17][18][19], has been investigated extensively by a variety of experimental and theoretical methods [20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27].…”
