Solvent effects on the ESIPT mechanism of 3-(benzo[ d ]thiazol-2-yl)triphenylen-2-ol: a DFT investigation
Abstract
A DFT/TD-DFT calculation on the HTpT molecule reveals that decreasing solvent polarity strengthens the intramolecular hydrogen bond, which significantly facilitates the excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) process.
