Excited state computational analysis using TheoDORE, revealed a higher percentage of charge transfer character in S0S1 in TIPS-PY compared to PY which can enhance the coupling of the triplet-pair state with the excited singlet-state, thereby increasing the efficiency of singlet generation.

This is an excellent illustration of how useless the "Impact Factor" metric is.

The most influential multidisciplinary chem journals are JACS and Angewandte. They did not make the list.

In this short ad hoc 🧵 I will analyze in real time what made the list and why. I have a bad feeling about this.

Creo que no es la política correcta. La tasa de éxito de los proyectos A debería ser superior a la de los proyectos B. Hay que dar una oportunidad a los jóvenes y al final de su proyecto evaluar el resultado para decidir si merecen tener continuidad o no.

Now in the special issue on Physical Organic Chemistry of
J. Org. Chem.. We explore which factors determine whether a certain heteroaromatic compound has its first excited states (T1 & S1) of npi* or pipi* character, and identify six factors. More to follow!

Toward a Systematics for the Lowest Excited States of Heteroaromatics Enabled via Cyclic π-Conjugated Carbenes and Heteroelement Analogues

The photochemistry of heteroaromatic compounds depends on the character of their lowest electronically excited states, which are of either n,π* or π,π* type. For species with 4n + 2 π-electrons, the l...
