General description

Two excited state proton transfer mechanisms of 3-hydroxyisoquinoline (3HIQ) in cyclohexane and acetic acid has been investigated by time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT). Spectral and photo physical properties of 3-HIQ in various protic/aprotic solvents were studied. Phototautomerization of 3-HIQ has been reported. Oxo-hydroxy tautomerism and phototautomerism of 3-HIQ has been studied using the matrix-isolation technique.

Oxo-hydroxy tautomerism and phototautomerism of 2-quinolinone, 1-isoquinolinone, 3-hydroxyisoquinoline, 2-quinoxalinone, and 4-quinazolinone were studied using the matrix-isolation technique. These compounds contain a benzene ring fused with a heterocyclic ring of 2-pyridinone, 2-pyrazinone, or 4-pyrimidinone. It turned out that direct attachment of

An efficient and enantioselective strategy to synthesize benzoindolizidines from α,β-unsaturated amino ketones via domino intramolecular aza-Michael addition/alkylation was developed. These reactions were enabled by cinchona alkaloid-derived quaternary ammonium salts as the phase-transfer catalyst. A variety of benzoindolizidines were prepared in

Two excited state proton transfer mechanisms of 3-hydroxyisoquinoline (3HIQ) in cyclohexane and acetic acid (ACID) were investigated based on the time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT), suggesting a different double-proton transfer mechanism from the one proposed previously (J.

In the present work we report the spectral and photophysical properties of 3-hydroxyisoquinoline in various protic/aprotic solvents. Our steady state and time resolved fluorescence data indicates that in the monomer form of 3HIQ phototautomerization can take place in the excited
