Ground- and excited-states properties of N2200 have been studied by steady-state and time-resolved spectroscopies as well as time-dependent density functional theory calculations.

Recently, a new method [P. Partovi-Azar and D. Sebastiani, J. Chem. Phys. 152, 064101 (2020)] was proposed to increase the efficiency of proton transfer energy calculations in density functional theory by using the T1 state with additional optimized effective potentials instead of calculations at S1. In this work, we focus on proton transfer from six prototypical photoacids to neighboring water molecules and show that the reference proton dissociation curves obtained at S1 states using time-dependent density functional theory can be reproduced with a reasonable accuracy by performing T1 calculations at density functional theory level with only one additional effective potential for the acidic hydrogens. We also find that the extra effective potentials for the acidic hydrogens neither change the nature of the T1 state nor the structural properties of solvent molecules upon transfer from the acids. The presented method is not only beneficial for theoretical studies on excited state proton transfer, but we believe that it would also be useful for studying other excited state photochemical reactions.

MC-PDFT is more accurate than CR-EOM-CCSD(T) or TDDFT when averaged over the first four adiabatic excitation energies of CN.
