Isomeric proton transfer through a water molecule is studied using ab initio calculations. An important nuclear and electronic relaxation is obtained in the transition.state structure when the solvent molecules which cause the non-specific effect are considered using the continuum model. In solution
## Abstract The possibility of population of the lowest‐lying triplet state (__T__~1~) in the early events of the photochemical isomerization process of a model chromophore of Rhodopsin (Rh) has been analyzed using multireference perturbation theory (CASPT2//CASSCF) methods. It is shown that the ch
