E → Z Isomerization Catalyzed by Organic Photosensitizers Explored by Nonorthogonal Multireference Wave Function Methods.

Triplet-triplet energy transfer (TEnT) processes, where energy is transferred from the triplet state of a donor (or photosensitizer, PS) to the singlet ground state of an acceptor (substrate), were applied to investigate E → Z photocatalyzed isomerization of alkenes. Using Fermi's golden rule and the four-state model,...
