1. Retinol and stilbene are both isomerized when they are illuminated anaerobically in the presence of flavins. 2. Triplet quenchers (e.g. oxygen, potassium iodide and paramagnetic ions) inhibit the reaction more efficiently than they quench flavin fluorescence. At 77°C in a diethyl ether–isopentane–ethanol (5:5:2) glass retinol quenches flavin phosphorescence, but not its fluorescence. 3. For the stilbene reaction cis/trans photostationary-state mixtures are obtained with different flavins and these are linearly related to the phosphorescence transition energies of the flavins used. 4. The reaction involves the triplet state of flavin and a scheme for the reaction is suggested. 5. The dependence of the rate of reaction on substrate concentration is explicable in terms of this scheme. 6. The photobleaching of rhodopsin sensitized by flavin is also demonstrated.

In this study, a near-infrared (NIR) theranostic photosensitizer was developed based on a heptamethine aminocyanine dye with a long-lived triplet state.

<div>Combining the roles of spin frustration and geometry of odd and even numbered rings in polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), we design small molecules that show exceedingly small singlet-triplet gaps and stable triplet ground states. Furthermore, a computationally efficient protocol with a model spin Hamiltonian is shown to be capable of qualitative agreement with respect to high level multireference calculations and therefore, can be used for fast molecular discovery and screening.</div>
