Real‐Time Monitoring of Excited‐State Ring‐Puckering Process in BODIPY Molecule Using Ultrafast Spectroscopy

ChemPhysChem, Volume 27, Issue 11, 15 June 2026.
Pyrromethene 597 (PM597), a commercial laser dye, shows a lower fluorescence yield than its analogues. Ultrafast dynamics studies using femtosecond fluorescence upconversion and transient absorption revealed that a non‐radiative ring‐puckering process in the excited state of PM597, occurring with a time constant of 1.3 ps, is primarily responsible for ...
