Abstract
The rates of double hydrogen transfer in the ground and excited electronic states have been measured for porphycene and its derivatives by using a new method based on pump-probe polarization spectroscopy. Changing the strength of two intramolecular hydrogen bonds by altering the NHN distance leads to differences in the tautomerization rate exceeding three orders of magnitude. The reaction is considerably slower in the lowest electronically excited state. A correlation was found between the tautomerization rates and (1)H chemical shifts of the internal protons.
