This letter announces the Virtual Excited State Reference for the Discovery of Electronic Materials Database (VERDE materials DB), the first database to include downloadable excited-state structures (S0, S1, T1) and photophysical properties. VERDE materials DB is searchable, open-access via www.verdedb.org , and focused on light-responsive π-conjugated organic molecules with applications in green chemistry, organic solar cells, and organic redox flow batteries. It includes results of our active and past virtual screening studies; to date, more than 13 000 density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been performed on 1 500 molecules to obtain frontier molecular orbitals and photophysical properties, including excitation energies, dipole moments, and redox potentials. To improve community access, we have made VERDE materials DB available via an integration with the Materials Data Facility. We are leveraging VERDE materials DB to train machine learning algorithms to identify new materials and structure-property relationships between molecular ground- and excited-states. We present a case-study involving photoaffinity labels, including predictions of new diazirine-based photoaffinity labels anticipated to have high photostabilities.
