The photophysical processes of the hydrogen bonding system were studied with steady-state UV-vis absorption spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, fluorescence lifetime measurement and nanosecond time-resolved transient absorption spectroscopies. The TTET of the intramolecular/hydrogen bonding/intermolecular systems were compared through nanosecond transient absorption spectroscopy. The TTET process of the hydrogen bonding system is faster and more efficient (kTTET = 6.9 × 104 s–1, ?TTET = 94.0%) than intermolecular triplet energy transfer (kTTET = 6.0 × 104 s–1, ?TTET = 90.9%), but slower and less efficient than intramolecular triplet energy transfer (kTTET > 108 s–1). These results are valuable for designing self-assembly triplet photosensitizers and for the study of the TTET process of hydrogen bonding systems. ER -
