Ultrafast proton transport in water-methanol mixtures

Femtosecond UV/IR pump-probe experiments and ab initio molecular dynamics simulations of 7-hydroxyquinoline in water-methanol mixtures demonstrate an unexpectedly dominant OH-/CH3O- transport pathway but consistent with a solvent-dependent photoacidity free energy-reactivity correlation behaviour.
