The development of new spectroscopic techniques (femtospectroscopy) has made possible the experimental study of a new range of reactions in chemistry. Attention has been focused on the double proton transfer induced tautomerization of 7-azaindole dimer. This reaction can provide an insight into a similar process in DNA base pairs which could explain some mutations in different biological systems. The geometries of the species involved in the reaction are showed in Fig. 1.1.
