“…This exceptional photostability of indigo and its derivatives has attracted significant scientific interest and, therefore, has been investigated comprehensively. To understand the photochemical and photophysical properties of indigo, a great number of theoretical and experimental studies [25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35] have been performed so far, which allowed to characterize excited state lifetimes, radiative and non-radiative relaxation pathways of the indigo chromophore [26,27,[30][31][32][33][34][35] as well as to estimate ionization potentials and electronic structures [28,29], singlet oxygen generation capacity [31], QSAR properties [25], and others.…”
