Journal ArticleDOI

Ultrafast time-resolved study of photophysical processes involved in the photodeprotection of p-hydroxyphenacyl caged phototrigger compounds.

TL;DR: The results provide important evidence for elucidation of the initial steps for the pHP deprotection mechanism and indicates that the triplet is the reactive precursor for pHP photorelease reactions for the compounds examined in this study.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ultrafast time-resolved transient absorption and resonance raman spectroscopy study of the photodeprotection and rearrangement reactions of p-hydroxyphenacyl caged phosphates.

TL;DR: The solvent effect observed in conjunction with the leaving group dependence of the triplet decay dynamics are consistent with a concerted solvent assisted triplet cleavage through a heterolytic mechanism for the HPDP and HPPP photodeprotection process.
Journal ArticleDOI

Time-resolved resonance Raman and density functional theory study of hydrogen-bonding effects on the triplet state of p-methoxyacetophenone.

TL;DR: Temporal evolution at early picosecond times indicates rapid ISC conversion, and subsequent relaxation of the excess energy of the initially formed energetic triplets occurs for both the free MAP and the hydrogen-bond complex.
Journal ArticleDOI

Time-resolved resonance Raman study of the triplet states of p-hydroxyacetophenone and the p-hydroxyphenacyl diethyl phosphate phototrigger compound.

TL;DR: The temporal evolution at very early picosecond time scale indicates there is rapid intersystem crossing (ISC) conversion and subsequent relaxation of the excess energy of the initially produced energetic triplet state.
Journal ArticleDOI

Time-resolved resonance Raman and density functional theory study of the deprotonation reaction of the triplet state of p-hydroxyacetophenone in water solution.

TL;DR: The possible implications of the model HA photochemistry in water solutions for the photodeprotection reactions of related p-HP phototrigger compounds in aqueous solutions are discussed.
