The dynamics of the excited-state proton-transfer reaction of 7-azaindole dimer has been investigated in hexane with use of the femtosecond fluorescence up-conversion method. Time-resolved measurements were performed in a wide fluorescence wavelength region from near-ultraviolet to visible (320−620 nm). Three fluorescence components due to the dimer were observed in addition to the fluorescence from coexisting monomer. Time-resolved fluorescence anisotropy measurements were also carried out, and the result indicated that the first (τ = 0.2 ps) and the second (τ = 1.1 ps) fluorescence components due to the dimer arise from two different dimeric excited states having different transition moment directions. The decay of the second component agrees with the rise of the third component, which is attributable to the fluorescence from the tautomeric excited state (τ = 3.2 ns) formed by the proton-transfer reaction. The fluorescence spectra of these three excited states were reconstructed from time-resolved fluor...
