The absorption and fluorescence spectra of umbelliferone were studied; it was found that in the excited state the basicity of the α-pyrone part of the molecule increases to such an extent that it exceeds that of the phenolate oxygen of the molecule. This is responsible for the neutral nondissociated form of umbelliferone being only in nonpolar medium which prevents the dissociation of the phenolic group in the excited state. In nonpolar medium, umbelliferone behaves as a substance with closely lying π → π* and n → π* transitions. Hydrogen bonds affect the fluorescence of 7-methoxycoumarin so that the π → π* transition is preserved as the lowest excited singlet state.

Two-photon excitation fluorescence microscopy provides attractive advantages over confocal microscopy for three-dimensionally resolved fluorescence imaging. Two-photon excitation arises from the simultaneous absorption of two photons in a single quantitized event whose probability is proportional to the square of the instantaneous intensity. For example, two red photons can cause the transition to an excited electronic state normally reached by absorption in the ultraviolet. In our fluorescence experiments, the final excited state is the same singlet state that is populated during a conventional fluorescence experiment. Thus, the fluorophore exhibits the same emission properties (e.g. wavelength shifts, environmental sensitivity) used in typical biological microscopy studies. In practice, two-photon excitation is made possible by the very high local instantaneous intensity provided by a combination of diffraction-limited focusing of a single laser beam in the microscope and the temporal concentration of 100 femtosecond pulses generated by a mode-locked laser. Resultant peak excitation intensities are 106 times greater than the CW intensities used in confocal microscopy, but the pulse duty cycle of 10−5 maintains the average input power on the order of 10 mW, only slightly greater than the power normally used in confocal microscopy.
