Conformational control of excited-state intramolecular electron transfer (ET) in folic acid (FA) has been investigated using femtosecond time-resolved infrared (TRIR) spectroscopy. Ultrafast excited-state ET between the pterin and the 4-aminobenzoyl subunits of FA is observed for the anionic form (at
