Abstract
Fluorescent probes have become promising tools for monitoring the concentration of peroxynitrite, which is linked to many diseases. However, despite focusing on developing numerous peroxynitrite based fluorescent probes, limited emphasis is placed on their sensing mechanism. Here, we investigated the sensing mechanism of a peroxynitrite fluorescent probe, named BHID-Bpin, with a focus on the relevant excited state dynamics. The photoexcited BHID-Bpin relaxes to its ground state via an efficient nonradiative process (∼300 ps) due to the presence of a minimum energy conical intersection between its first excited state and ground state. However, upon reacting with peroxynitrite, the Bpin moiety is cleaved from BHID-Bpin and BHID is formed. The formed BHID exhibits strong dual band fluorescence which is caused by an ultrafast excited-state intramolecular proton transfer process (∼1 ps).

Abstract
The photoinduced nonadiabatic dynamics of the enol-keto isomerization of 10-hydroxybenzo[h]quinoline (HBQ) are studied computationally using high-dimensional quantum dynamics. The simulations are based on a diabatic vibronic coupling Hamiltonian, which includes the two lowest [Formula: see text] excited states and a [Formula: see text] state, which has high energy in the Franck-Condon zone, but significantly stabilizes upon excited state intramolecular proton transfer. A procedure, applicable to large classes of excited state proton transfer reactions, is presented to parametrize this model using potential energies, forces and force constants, which, in this case, are obtained by time-dependent density functional theory. The wave packet calculations predict a time scale of 10-15 fs for the photoreaction, and reproduce the time constants and the coherent oscillations observed in time-resolved spectroscopic studies performed on HBQ. In contrast to the interpretation given to the most recent experiments, it is found that the reaction initiated by [Formula: see text] photoexcitation proceeds essentially on a single potential energy surface, and the observed coherences bear signatures of Duschinsky mode-mixing along the reaction path. The dynamics after the [Formula: see text] excitation are instead nonadiabatic, and the [Formula: see text] state plays a major role in the relaxation process. The simulations suggest a mainly active role of the proton in the isomerization, rather than a passive migration assisted by the vibrations of the benzoquinoline backbone.

Abstract
Excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) is a fundamental chemical process with several applications. Ultrafast ESIPT involves coupled electronic and atomic motions and has been primarily studied using femtosecond optical spectroscopy. X-ray spectroscopy is particularly useful because it is element-specific and enables direct, individual probes of the proton-donating and -accepting atoms. Herein, we report a computational study to resolve the ESIPT in 10-hydroxybenzo[h]quinoline (HBQ), an intramolecularly hydrogen bonded compound. We use linear-response time-dependent density functional theory (LR-TDDFT) combined with ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) and time-resolved X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) computations to track the ultrafast excited-state dynamics. Our results reveal clear X-ray spectral signatures of coupled electronic and atomic motions during and following ESIPT at the oxygen and nitrogen K-edge, paving the way for future experiments at X-ray free electron lasers.

Abstract
Aggregation-induced enhanced emission (AIEE) molecules have significant applications in optoelectronics, biomedical probes and chemical sensors, and large amounts of AIEE molecules have been reported since the concept of AIEE was proposed. Most aromatic AIEE molecules have complex structures consisting of multiple aromatic rings and/or polycyclic skeletons. In this study, we find that 2-aminophenylboronic acid (2-APBA) with a simple structure is highly emissive in the solid state. Further studies reveal that 2-APBA exists in a dimeric form, and the 2-APBA dimer is a novel AIEE molecule. The underlying AIEE mechanism is that the 2-APBA dimeric units aggregate through intermolecular interactions to produce highly ordered molecular packing without the presence of π–π stacking interactions that would lead to aggregation-caused quenching. Furthermore, the 2-APBA dimer aggregates could reversibly transform into its non-fluorescent monomer form driven by new kinds of dynamic covalent B–N and B–O bonds, illustrating its good potential in molecular recognition, nanogating, chemo/bio-sensing and controlled drug release. The 2-APBA dimer tending to aggregate into a highly ordered structure is discovered to be AIEE active. Through alternate treatment with CO2 and N2, 2-APBA can switch between monomer and dimer aggregates driven by dynamic covalent B–N and B–O bonds.![]()

Abstract
3-Hydroxyflavon (3-HF) represents an interesting paradigmatic compound to study excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) and intermolecular (ESInterPT) processes to explain the experimentally observed dual fluorescence in solvents containing protic contamination (water) as opposed to single fluorescence in highly purified nonpolar solvents. In this work, adiabatic on-the-fly molecular dynamics simulations have been performed for isolated 3-HF in an aqueous solution using a polarizable continuum model and including explicit water molecules to represent adequately hydrogen bonding. For the calculation of the excited state, time-dependent density functional theory and the Becke-3-Lee-Yang-Parr (B3LYP) functional have been used. For the isolated 3-HF, ultrafast ESIPT from the enol group to the neighboring keto group has been observed. The calculated PT time of 48 fs agrees well with the experimental value of 39 fs. Addition of one water molecule quenches this ESIPT process but shows an intermolecular concerted or stepwise tautomerization process via the bridging water molecule. Adding a second or more water molecules inhibits this ESInterPT process to a large degree. Most of the trajectories do not show any PT, preserving the initial excited-state enol structure, which is the origin of the violet-blue fluorescence appearing in the solvents contaminated with protic components.

Abstract
In this short review, we attempt to unfold various aspects of excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) from the studies that are available up to date. Since Weller’s discovery of ESIPT in salicylic acid (SA) and its derivative methyl salicylate (MS), numerous studies have emerged on the topic and it has become an attractive field of research because of its manifold applications. Here, we discuss some critical aspects of ESIPT and tautomerization from the mechanistic viewpoint. We address excitation wavelength dependence, anti-Kasha ESIPT, fast and slow ESIPT, reversibility and irreversibility of ESIPT, hydrogen bonding and geometrical factors, excited-state double proton transfer (ESDPT), concerted and stepwise ESDPT.

Abstract
Theoretical design of conjugated proton cranes, based on 7-hydroxyquinoline as a tautomeric sub-unit, has been attempted by using ground and excited state density functional theory (DFT) calculations in various environments. The proton crane action request existence of a single enol tautomer in ground state, which under excitation goes to the excited keto tautomer through a series of consecutive excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) steps with the participation of the crane sub-unit. A series of substituted pyridines was used as crane sub-units and the corresponding donor-acceptor interactions were evaluated. The results suggest that the introduction of strong electron donor substituents in the pyridine ring creates optimal conditions for 8-(pyridin-2-yl)quinolin-7-ols to act as proton cranes.

Abstract
The paper presents the synthesis and characterization of two 4-substituted phthalimide 2-hydroxy-Schiff bases containing salicylic (4) and 2-hydroxy-1-naphthyl (5) moieties. The structural differences of 2-hydroxyaryl substituents, resulting in different enol/keto tautomeric behaviour, depending on the solvent environment were studied by absorption UV-Vis spectroscopy. Compound 5 is characterized by a solvent-dependent tautomeric equilibrium (KT in toluene = 0.12, acetonitrile = 0.22 and MeOH = 0.63) while no tautomerism is observed in 4. Ground state theoretical DFT calculations by using continuum solvation in MeOH indicate an energy barrier between enol/keto tautomer 5.6 kcal mol-1 of 4 and 0.63 kcal mol-1 of 5, which confirms the experimentally observed impossibility of the tautomeric equilibrium in the former. The experimentally observed specific solvent effect in methanol is modeled via explicit solvation. The excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) was investigated by steady state fluorescence spectroscopy. Both compounds show a high rate of photoconversion to keto tautomers hence keto emissions with large Stokes shifts in five alcohols (MeOH, EtOH, 1-propanol, 1-butanol, and 1-pentanol) and various aprotic solvents (toluene, dichlormethane, acetone, AcCN). According to the excited state TDDFT calculations using implicit solvation in MeOH, it was found that enol tautomers of 4 and 5 are higher in energy compared to the keto ones, which explains the origin of the experimentally observed keto form emission.

Abstract
To induce double-proton transfer (DPT) with guanine in a biological environment, 12 cytosine analogues (Ca) were formed by atomic substitution. The DPT reactions in the Watson-Crick cytosine-guanine model complex (Ca0G) and 12 modified cytosine-guanine complexes (Ca1-12G) were investigated using density functional theory methods at the M06-2X/def2svp level. The intramolecular proton transfers within the analogues are not facile due to high energy barriers. The hydrogen bond lengths of the Ca1-12G complexes are shorter than those in the Ca0G complex, which are conducive to DPT reactions. The DPT energy barriers of Ca1-12G complexes are also lower than that of the Ca0G complex, in particular, the barriers in the Ca7G and Ca11G complexes were reduced to -1.33 and -2.02 kcal/mol, respectively, indicating they are significantly more prone to DPT reactions. The DPT equilibrium constants of Ca1-12G complexes range from 1.60 × 100 to 1.28 × 107, among which the equilibrium constants of Ca7G and Ca11G are over 1.0 × 105, so their DPT reactions may be adequate. The results demonstrate that those cytosine analogues, especially Ca7 and Ca11, are capable of inducing DPT with guanine, and then the guanine tautomer will form mismatches with thymine during DNA replication, which may provide new strategies for gene therapy.

Abstract
The substituted effect on excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) of o-LHBDI derivatives (4R-o-LHBDI) was investigated by DFT and TD-DFT methods. The structures of 4R-o-LHBDI (R: OH, NH2, CN, NO2, CF3) were fully optimized, and the H-bond distances, bond angles, and infrared spectra of the atoms involved in PT process in the S0 and S1 states were analyzed. The absorption and fluorescence spectra were calculated, and the potential energy curves in both S0 and S1 states were constructed. Moreover, the effects of different substituents on the ESIPT mechanism of 4R-o-LHBDI (R: OH, NH2, CN, NO2, CF3) were studied. The results indicate that ESIPT in the 4R-o-LHBDI is a little harder to proceed than that in o-LHBDI since the ESIPT barrier of 4R-o-LHBDI is slightly bigger than that value of o-LHBDI. When the substituent has stronger electron-withdrawing ability or weaker electron-donating ability, the ESIPT process has the smaller potential barrier. Graphical abstract.

Abstract
The concept for sensing systems using the tautomerism as elementary signaling process has been further developed by synthesizing a ligand containing 4-(phenyldiazenyl)naphthalene-1-ol as a tautomeric block and an amide group as metal capturing antenna. Although it has been expected that the intramolecular hydrogen bonding (between the tautomeric hydroxy group and the nitrogen atom from the amide group) could stabilize the pure enol form in some solvents, the keto tautomer is also observed. This is a result from the formation of intramolecular associates in some solvents. Strong bathochromic and hyperchromic effects in the visible spectra accompany the 1:1 formation of complexes with some alkaline earth metal ions.

Abstract
Strapped acceptor–π–donor–π–acceptor type fluorophores exhibit intense near infrared emission, together with near infrared two-photon absorption.
Fluorophores that can undergo excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) represent promising scaffolds for the design of compounds that show red-shifted fluorescence. Herein, we disclose new near infrared-emissive materials based on a dialkylamine-strapped 2,5-dithienylpyrrole as an ESIPT scaffold. The introduction of electron-accepting units to the terminal positions of this scaffold generates acceptor–π–donor–π–acceptor (A–π–D–π–A) type π-conjugated compounds. Following the ESIPT, the electron-donating ability of the core scaffold increases, which results in a substantially red-shifted emission in the NIR region, while increasing the oscillator strength. The electron-accepting units play a vital role to achieve intense and red-shifted emission from the ESIPT state. The strapped dialkylamine chain that forms an intramolecular hydrogen bond is also essential to induce the ESIPT. Moreover, an extended A–π–D–π–A skeleton enables two-photon excitation with the NIR light. One of the derivatives that satisfy these features, i.e., borylethenyl-substituted 5, exhibited an intense NIR emission in polar solvents such as acetone (λem = 708 nm, ΦF = 0.55) with a strong two-photon-absorption band in the NIR region.
