Electronic spectra of indolyl radicals: A time-dependent DFT study

Neutral and cationic indolyl radicals, such as those arising from tryptophan and melatonin, are involved in a variety of physiological situations. Due to their short life times, experimental characterization of these species is incomplete. We have performed density functional theory (DFT) calculatio...
