Featuring contributions from leading experts, Organic
Photochemistry and Photophysics is a unique resource that addresses
the organic photochemistry and photophysical behavior in aromatic
molecules, thiocarbonyls, selected porphyrins, and
metalloporphyrins. The book presents theories pertaining to
radiative and radiationless transitions. It describes excited-state
proton-transfer reactions of aromatic compounds and the physical,
energetic, and environmental effects of atom transfer reactions.
The text discusses the role of the carbonyl and azo groups in
ketones and azoalkanes in the development of photochemistry,
followed by a review of nucleophilic substitution reactions in the
photochemistry of aromatics (also called photosubstitution) and the
various atomic bonds that result from these reactions. The book
presents studies that explain the factors that govern the nature
and efficiencies of SET-promoted photochemical reactions. It then
focuses on photoamination as a convenient, powerful, and
environmentally friendly synthetic process for transforming a
variety of substrates into the corresponding aminated compounds.
The final chapter explores how dye structure affects the
sequence-dependence of DNA binding, which has potential
applications in nonlinear optics and DNA detection as well as
incorporating DNA into various nanostructures and devices. With an
emphasis on the current uses of light in both materials chemistry
and medicinal chemistry, this book serves as a comprehensive
resource on photochemical reactions and discusses topics that are
useful for researchers as well as newcomers in the fields of
photochemistry, photobiology, photomedicine, and photophysics
Features surveys of all areas of organic, inorganic, physical and
biological photochemistry. The text serves as a source of
scientific findings pertinent to chemistry and biochemistry. It
addresses the state of developments in the field, employing reviews
of active research, including recent innovations, techniques and
applications.
This text discusses di-p-methane rearrangements via radical-cation
intermediates, the photo-Fries rearrangement in organized media and
of biologically active compounds, electron transfer leading to
fragmentation, dimerization, and nucleophilic capture, and the
characterization and reactivity of photochemically generated
phenylene bis(diradical) species. The authors reveal experimental
and computational techniques for the study of phenylene-linked
carbenes and nitrenes. Brimming with over 900 references,
Photochemistry of Organic Molecules in Isotropic and Anisotropic
Media is crucial for professionals and students in photochemistry;
chemical engineering; materials and semiconductor science; and
organic, inorganic, and physical chemistry.
Answering the need for information that could revolutionize the
development of alternate solar energy sources and the reduction of
atmospheric contaminants, Semiconductor Photochemistry and
Photophysics reflects renewed interest inspired by the unique
properties of nanocrystalline semiconductor particles. It provides
a thorough overview and describes fundamental research aimed at
understanding the underlying mechanisms of the cells and looks at
the application of nanocrystalline TiO2 as a photocatalyst for
environmental remediation. Key topics include semiconductor
photoelectrochemistry, dye-sensitized solar cells, and
photocatalytic treatment of chemical waste.

This text examines organic, physical and materials photochemistry.
It reports the first example of a TiO2 sensitization with a
fullerene-based donor-acceptor dyad, and covers halophenols,
diflusinal photochemistry, hydroxystyrenes, acetylenes, and other
related compounds. The volume also investigates whether c,
d-alkenes influence the efficiency and course of light-induced
reactions, and more
Focuses on complex naturally occurring and synthetic supramolecular
arrays. The text describes applications of photochemistry in
cystalline organic matrices; covers two-component crystals -
crystalline molecular compounds, mixed crystals and simple
mechanical mixtures - in solid and liquid phases; assesses
photoinduced fragmentation of carbon-heteroatom bonds; and more.
A consideration of the development of photochemical systems with
functions as optical sensors or switches, discussing materials and
chemical systems, technology, and applications for target molecules
and optical signal multiplexing. It contains novel applications in
electrogenerated chemiluminescence and supramolecular photophysics
for sensing chemical and biological analytes.

Control of molecular chirality is central to contemporary
chemistry, biology, and materials-related areas. Chiral
photochemistry employs molecular and supramolecular chiral
interactions in the electronically excited state to induce
molecular chirality, providing new and versatile strategies and
surprising results unattainable by conventional thermal asymmetric
synthesis. Chiral Photochemistry is the first book devoted solely
to this rapidly growing area. This comprehensive and authoritative
book covers all aspects of the subject, from circularly polarized
light to supramolecular chiral source and from the origin of
homochirality in the biosphere to chiral devices and materials.

Principles of Molecular Photochemistry: An Introduction develops
photochemical and photophysical concepts from a small set of
familiar principles. Developed from Nick Turro's best-selling text
for three decades - Modern Molecular Photochemistry - this updated
primer introduces an initial paradigm that relates the photon and a
reactant molecular structure to photochemistry through the
structure and dynamics of electronically excited states, reactive
intermediates and products. The same paradigm is readily adapted to
incorporate the photon and a reactant molecular structure to
photophysics. The book provides brilliantly clear descriptions in
pictorial terms that can be readily understood by the student and
applied to systems of interest. This text will be of interest to
not only practicing photochemists and their students, but also to
biological scientists, polymer scientists, material scientists and
nanoscientists who use photochemistry and photophysics in their
research and teaching.
Modern Molecular Photochemistry of Organic Molecules is a
comprehensive revision of Turro's classic text, Modern Molecular
Photochemistry, which has been the standard of the field for three
decades. For a crystal-clear introduction to organic photochemistry
in pictorial terms, this book comprises all of the same
introductory chapters that make up Principles of Molecular
Photochemistry, but then goes on to provide additional chapters
that cover the methods for determining the mechanisms of organic
photoreactions, and describe comprehensively the photochemistry of
the basic functional groups of organic chemistry. The text also
includes special topic chapters on supramolecule organic
photochemistry, the first of its kind, and the role of triplet and
singlet molecular oxygen in organic photochemistry.This text will
be of interest to not only practicing photochemists and their
students, but also to biological scientists, polymer scientists,
material scientists and nanoscientists who use photochemistry and
photophysics in their research and teaching. For adopting
professors, an art CD of figures from the book is also available.
A description of applications to electrical conductors, nonlinear
optical devices, polymer light-omitting diodes (LEDs), electronic
devices, batteries, antistatic coatings, and transistors. It
reviews cases of metal-organic polymers incorporated with
traditional organic polymers; assesses key properties of conjugated
polymers; discusses features of d10 complexes and their
interactions with DNA; and more.

This is the most updated, comprehensive collection of monographs on
all aspects of photochemistry and photophysics related to natural
and synthetic, inorganic, organic, and biological supramolecular

monolayers, zeolites, clays, silica, micelles, polymers,
dendrimers, organic hosts, supramolecular structures, organic
glass, proteins and DNA, and applications of photosystems in
confined media. This landmark publication describes the past,
present, and future of this growing interdisciplinary area.
