A study has been carried out of the prodan and promen molecules by ab initio methods. The geometrical structures of promen and prodan in the ground and excited states have been established. It has been shown that the absorption and fluorescence spectra of promen and prodan are formed by several conformations of the molecules. The contributions of universal and specific intermolecular interactions to the fluorescence spectrum of prodan in cyclohexane and water are identified.
