Abstract

1-Hydroxypyrene (1) shows unusual acid-base chemistry in its singlet excited state. Whereas most hydroxyarenes experience a marked enhancement in their acidity when excited, and rapidly deprotonate to give the corresponding phenolate anion, this is not an important pathway for 1, despite theoretical predictions that 1 should experience enhanced acidity as well. In this work, we demonstrate that 1 undergoes a competing excited state ...
