Understanding electron density migration along excited-state pathways in photochemical systems is critical for optimizing solar energy conversion processes. In this study, we investigate photoinduced electron transfer (PET) in a covalently linked don...

Near-infrared (NIR) rhodamine dyes are pivotal for bioimaging due to the minimal tissue interference. Yet, their rational design is hindered by unreliable computational methods for excited-state property prediction. We benchmarked the time-dependent...

N-phenyl-1H-Indole-5-carboxamide (Ind-CA) exhibits previously unknown room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) when immobilized in poly (vinyl alcohol) film (PVA film). High-fluorescence anisotropy of Ind-CA in PVA suggests that the fluorophores are st...

Visible-light photoredox catalysis using biacetyl (BA) as a low-cost photosensitizer enables the efficient formation of triarylethylenes (TAEs) via a Mizoroki–Heck-type coupling. The reaction proceeds efficiently in acetonitrile upon blue LED i...

IR-780 is a heptamethine cyanine dye that exhibits strong absorbance in the near-infrared region. Herein, we report IR-780 dye as a dual sensor for chromogenic cyanide detection and azide’s fluorogenic sensing in acetonitrile. Cyanide and hydro...

This review examines the production of terephthalic acid via the oxidation of p-xylene, comparing catalytic and photocatalytic approaches. The commercial AMOCO process employs a cobalt/manganese/bromide catalyst system but requires harsh conditions,...

Porphyrins play important roles in biological systems including oxygen transport and catalysis. Due to their tetrapyrrole core structure, they exhibit exceptional photophysical and electrochemical properties and find many applications in both technic...
