Abstract

The ground and excited state geometries, the excitation and emission energies for a series of fluorescein derivatives in aqueous solutions have been investigated using time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) with B3LYP and a long-range corrected CAM-B3LYP functional. The RI-CC2 method was employed to confirm the CAM-B3LYP results. As far as we know, the excited state geometries for a series of fluorescein derivatives were optimized for the first time, and the conformational changes upon photoexcitation were discussed. Importantly, the previous proposed photo induced electron transfer (PeT) mechanism for dictating the fluorescence quantum yield (Φfl) of fluorescein derivatives was not fully supported by our calculations. Internal conversion may still be the most likely mechanism for dictating the Φfl of fluorescein derivatives, which indicates a need for further experimental and theoretical studies on the excited state dynamics of fluorescein derivatives.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
