Abstract

The green fluorescent protein (GFP) chromophore is a heterocyclic compound containing a p-hydroxybenzylidine attached to an imidazol-5(4H)-one ring. This review covers the synthesis of a variety of model systems for elucidating the intrinsic optical properties of the chromophore in the gas phase and its response in particular to hydrogen bond interactions. The overall goal is to understand how the protein binding pocket influences the absorption behavior, and the current status of our ongoing efforts is presented.
