Abstract

A "super" photobase experiences a 14‐unit jump in pKa from its ground to excited state as the result of photon absorption. In their Communication on page 14742 ff., B. Borhan, M. Dantus, and co‐workers report the discovery of a modular fluorenyl photobase capable of proton abstraction from organic solvents, unveiling the ultrafast dynamics of its intermolecular excited‐state proton transfer process.
