27. It must be admitted that not everyone believes C153 to be an ideal solvation probe. Some researchers have considered the possibility of multiple excited electronic states playing a role in the dynamics. See the discussion in ref 34 for details.

41. For example, in considering dielectric-friction effects, one needs the integral solvation time. The most recent dielectric continuum comparisons made to the spectral reconstruction results in ref 25 indicate that the small-amplitude long-time tails reported for the N-methyl amides may not be real solvation components.
