Abstract
Femto- and picosecond fluorescence experiments are reported for 5,5'-d imethyl-[2,2'-bipyridyl]-3,3'-diol. It is discussed that the probe mol ecule in the photo-excited state undergoes single and double intramole cular proton transfer. From a study of the dynamics of the proton tran sfer processes information concerning the role of vibrational modes as sisting in the intramolecular proton transfer is obtained.
