✦ Synopsis

The spectral turnover from molecular to cationic fluoresCence of Z-naphthylamine in sulphuric acid-water mir;tures is accompanied by strong quenching of both components. Within the turnover region deuteration increases the fluorescence quahtum yields considerably. It is concluded that in this system proton transfer participates in the internal conversion process responsible for quench~g. Two possible rnech~nisnls for this are indicated.

The proton transfer in 2-(2'-hydroxy-5 '-methylphenyl)henzotriazole is studied in nonpolar solvents, where two major ground state conformers are identified. After femtosecond excitation of the predominant species, the hydroxylic proton is transferred to the benzotriazole moiety on a time scale of 10
