Elaboration and controlling excited state double proton transfer mechanism of 2,5-bis(benzoxazol-2-yl)thiophene-3,4-diol

In the present work, we theoretically illuminate the excited state double proton transfer (ESDPT) process about a novel synthesized system 2,5-bis(benzoxazol-2-yl)thiophene-3,4-diol (BBTD). Minor changes of both structure and charge redistribution deriving from photoexcitation result in obviously di...

Sumario:In the present work, we theoretically illuminate the excited state double proton transfer (ESDPT) process about a novel synthesized system 2,5-bis(benzoxazol-2-yl)thiophene-3,4-diol (BBTD). Minor changes of both structure and charge redistribution deriving from photoexcitation result in obviously different excited state dynamical process. Exploration about our constructed S(1)-state potential energy surface (PES) indicates a stepwise ESDPT mechanism for BBTD. In addition, we present a new mechanism about regulating and controlling stepwise ESDPT process via external electric field.
