Abstract
Nanoconfined liquids are of interest because of both their fundamental properties and their potential utility in an array of applications. The structure and dynamics of the liquid can be dramatically impacted by the geometrical constraints and the interactions with the interface. Understanding the molecular-level origins of these changes and how they are determined by the characteristics of the confining framework is the subject of ongoing experimental and theoretical studies. The progress and remaining challenges in these efforts are reviewed in the context of solvation dynamics and proton transfer reactions, processes that are strongly affected by nanoscale confinement.

Abstract
The dependence of fluorescence and solvation dynamics of coumarin 480 (C480) in a dimyristoyl-phosphatidylcholine (DMPC) vesicle on excitation wavelength (lambda(ex)) was studied with femtosecond fluorescence upconversion. The study revealed an ultrafast 1.5-ps component of solvation that was not detected earlier. C480 exhibits pronounced red-edge excitation shift (REES) by 10 nm in a DMPC vesicle. This is due to the microheterogeneity of the lipid vesicle. In lipids, the probe is distributed in different locations with varying static and dynamic electrostatic responses. Solvent relaxation becomes faster and the amount of dynamic Stokes shift decreases with increasing lambda(ex). For excitation at the red end (lambda(ex) = 430 nm), the solvation time was found to be 1.5 ps. However, for excitation at the blue end, (lambda(ex) = 390 nm), there are two substantially slower components of 250 and 2000 ps. It seems that for lambda(ex) = 390 nm, the major contribution to total emission is due to the probe (C480) molecules in the hydrophobic and restricted locations inside the lipid bilayer. Excitation at 430 nm preferentially selects the probe molecules in a highly mobile environment (water pool of the lipid).

Abstract
Fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) from coumarin 480 (C480) to fluorescein 548 (F548) in a sodium dioctyl sulfosuccinate (AOT) reverse micelle is studied by picosecond and femtosecond emission spectroscopy. In bulk water, at the low concentration of the donor (C480) and the acceptor (F548), no FRET is observed. However, when the donor (C480) and the acceptor (F548) are confined in a AOT reverse micelle very fast FRET is observed. The time constants of FRET were obtained from the rise time of the emission of the acceptor (F548). In a AOT microemulsion, FRET is found to occur in multiple time scales--3, 200, and 2700 ps. The 3 ps component is assigned to FRET in the water pool of the reverse micelle with a donor-acceptor distance, 16 A. The 200 ps component corresponds to a donor-acceptor distance of 30 A and is ascribed to the negatively charged acceptor inside the water pool and the neutral donor inside the alkyl chains of AOT. The very long 2700 ps component may arise due to FRET from a donor outside the micelle to an acceptor inside the water pool and also from diffusion of the donor from bulk heptane to the reverse micelle. With increase in the excitation wavelength from 375 to 405 nm the relative contribution of the FRET due to C480 in the AOT reverse micelle (the 3 and 200 ps components) increases.

Abstract
Excitation wavelength (lambdaex) dependence of solvation dynamics of coumarin 480 (C480) in the micellar core of a water soluble triblock copolymer, PEO20-PPO70-PEO20 (Pluronic P123), is studied by femtosecond and picosecond time resolved emission spectroscopies. In the P123 micelle, the width of the emission spectrum of C480 is found to be much larger than that in bulk water. This suggests that the P123 micelle is more heterogeneous than bulk water. The steady state emission maximum of C480 in P123 micelle shows a significant red edge excitation shift by 25 nm from 453 nm at lambdaex=345 nm to 478 nm at lambdaex=435 nm. The solvation dynamics in the interior of the triblock copolymer micelle is found to depend strongly on the excitation wavelength. The excitation wavelength dependence is ascribed to a wide distribution of locations of C480 molecules in the P123 micelle with two extreme environments-a bulklike peripheral region with very fast solvent response and a very slow core region. With increase in lambdaex, contribution of the bulklike region having an ultrafast component (< or =2 ps) increases from 7% at lambdaex=375 nm to 78% at lambda(ex)=425 nm while the contribution of the ultraslow component (4500 ps) decreases from 79% to 17%.

Abstract
Temperature dependence of solvation dynamics and fluorescence anisotropy decay of 8-anilino-1-naphthalenesulfonate (ANS) bound to a protein, bovine serum albumin (BSA), are studied. Solvation dynamics of ANS bound to BSA displays a component (300 ps) which is independent of temperature in the range of 278-318 K and a long component which decreases from 5800 ps at 278 K to 3600 ps at 318 K. The temperature independent part is ascribed to a dynamic exchange of bound to free water with a low barrier. The temperature variation of the long component of solvation dynamics corresponds to an activation energy of 2.1 kcal mol(-1). The activation energy is ascribed to local segmental motion of the protein along with the associated water molecules and polar residues. The time scale of solvation dynamics is found to be very different from the time scale of anisotropy decay. The anisotropy decays are analyzed in terms of the wobbling motion of the probe (ANS) and the overall tumbling of the protein.

Abstract
Using femtosecond time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy, it is shown that the solvation dynamics in the two partially folded states (IS' and IS' ') of a protein, cytochrome C, are very different. In the case of IS' (formed by the addition of 2 mM sodium dodecyl sulfate, SDS) almost the entire dynamic solvent shift of coumarin 153 (C153) is captured in a picosecond setup and the contribution of the ultrafast component (0.5 ps) is very small (5%). Solvation dynamics of IS' ' (formed by 2 mM SDS and 5 M urea) displays a major component (47%) of 1.3 ps. This indicates that the structure of IS' ' is much more open and exposed compared to that of IS'. The difference in the dynamics of IS' and IS' ' is attributed to differences in their structure, particularly near the heme region, and the presence of urea in IS' '.

Abstract
Fluorescence anisotropy decay and solvation dynamics of coumarin 153 (C153) are studied in dimethyl beta-cyclodextrin (DIMEB) and trimethyl beta-cyclodextrin (TRIMEB) nanocavity in water. C153 binds to DIMEB and TRIMEB to form both 1:1 and 1:2 (C153:cyclodextrin) complexes. The anisotropy decays of C153 in DIMEB and TRIMEB are found to be biexponential. The fast component of anisotropy decay (approximately 1000 ps) is attributed to the 1:1 complex and the slower one (approximately 2500 ps) to the 1:2 complex. From the components of the anisotropy decay, the length of the 1:1 and 1:2 complexes are estimated. Solvation dynamics of C153 in DIMEB exhibits a very fast (2.4 ps) component (41%) and two slower components of 50 ps (29%) and 1450 ps (30%). Solvation dynamics in TRIMEB is described by three slow components of 10.3 ps (24%), 240 ps (45%), and 2450 ps (31%). Possible origins of the ultraslow components are discussed.

Abstract
Effect of temperature on the fluorescence anisotropy decay and the ultraslow component of solvation dynamics of coumarin 153 (C153) in a gamma-cyclodextrin (gamma-CD) nanocavity are studied using a picosecond set up. The steady-state anisotropy (0.13 +/- 0.01) and residual anisotropy (0.14 +/- 0.01) in fluorescence anisotropy decay in an aqueous solution containing 7 microM C153 and 40 mM gamma-CD are found to be quite large. This indicates formation of large linear nanotube aggregates of gamma-CD linked by C153. It is estimated that >53 gamma-CD units are present in each aggregate. In these aggregates with rise in temperature, the average solvation time (<tau(s)>(obs)) decreases markedly from 680 ps at 278 K to 160 ps at 318 K. The dynamic Stokes shift is found to decrease from 800 cm(-1) at 278 K to 250 cm(-1) at 318 K. The fraction of dynamic Stokes shift (f(d)) detected in a picosecond set up is calculated using the Fee-Maroncelli procedure. The corrected solvation time (<tau(s)>(corr) = f(d)<(tau(s)>(obs)) displays an Arrhenius type temperature dependence. From the temperature variation, the activation energy and entropy of the solvation process are determined to be 12.5 kcal M(-1) and 28 cal M(-1) K(-1), respectively. The ultraslow component and its temperature dependence are ascribed to a dynamic exchange between bound and free water molecules.
