Fluorescence of some simple umbelliferone derivatives

, 1979
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
