optimizations were performed within the C2v point group. To ensure a
stationary point on the ground-state potential surface, the optimized
geometries were verified by a vibrational frequency analysis. Vertical
excitation energies were calculated at the ground-state equilibrium
geometry based on TD-DFT with the B3LYP or CAM-B3LYP35
hybrid functionals and the 6-31+G(d) basis set with added diffuse
functions. To estimate fluorescence emission energies, the geometry of
the lowest excited state was optimized by TD-DFT at the B3LYP/6-
31G(d) level of theory and the vertical emission energy was calculated
at the excited state geometry (TD-DFT with B3LYP/6-31+G(d)).
Bulk solvent effects were evaluated based on the polarizable
continuum model (PCM) using default parameters.43 For this
purpose, ground state geometries were energy minimized with PCM
equilibrium solvation (Tables S1 and S2), and the vertical excitation
energies were subsequently calculated with ground-state solvation
using TD-DFT in combination with B3LYP/6-31+G(d) or CAM-
B3LYP/6-31+G(d), respectively. Similarly, fluorescence emission
energies were obtained based on TD-DFT geometry optimizations
with state-specific PCM equilibrium solvation,44,45 followed by a TD-
DFT calculation with state-specific solvation using B3LYP/6-31+G(d)
or CAM-B3LYP/6-31+G(d), respectively. Total electron density
differences between the ground and excited states were visualized
with VMD46 based on Gaussian cube output files.
