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 …

The chromone and its derivatives are the most important heterocyclic compounds, which is a
common and integral feature of a variety of natural products and medicinal agents. These …

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 …

Hybrid nanomaterials (HNs), the combination of organic semiconductor ligands attached to
nanocrystal semiconductor quantum dots, have applications that span a range of practical …

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 …

High resistance towards traditional antibiotics has urged the development of new, natural
therapeutics against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Prenylated (iso) …

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

As a typical class of excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) molecules, 3-
hydroxyflavone derivatives (3HF, also known as flavonols) have received much attention …

We demonstrate that newly synthesised 7-acetamido-3-hydroxychromones, as well as their
parent 3-hydroxychromone (3HC) analogues, exhibit excited-state intramolecular proton …

We present the design, synthesis, and functional evaluation of peptide-based fluorescent
constructs for wavelength-ratiometric biosensing of a protein analyte. The concept was …
