The ultrafast internal conversion (IC) dynamics of the carbonyl carotenoid 12'-apo-beta-caroten-12'-al has been investigated in solvents of varying polarity using time-resolved femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy. The molecules were excited to the S(2) state by a pump beam of either 390 or 470 nm. The subsequent intramolecular dynamics were detected at several probe wavelengths covering the S(0)--> S(2) and S(1)--> S(n) bands. For the S(1)--> S(0) internal conversion process, a remarkably strong acceleration with increasing polarity was found, e.g., lifetimes of tau(1) = 220 ps (n-hexane), 91 ps (tetrahydrofuran) and 8.0 ps (methanol) after excitation at 390 nm. The observation can be rationalized by the formation of a combined S(1)/ICT (intramolecular charge transfer) state in the more polar solvents. The effect is even stronger than the strongest one reported so far in the literature for peridinin. Addition of lithium salts to a solution of 12'-apo-beta-caroten-12'-al in ethanol leads only to small changes of the IC time constant tau(1). In addition, we estimate an upper limit for the time constant tau(2) of the S(2)--> S(1) internal conversion process of 300 fs in all solvents. 相似文献

The solvent polarity dependence of the fluorescence quantum yield and lifetime of 1-dimethylaminonaphthalene (DMAN) was fund different from that of normal case in that the two parameters increase with increasing solvent polarity, in spite of the fact that the emissive state of DMAN was also of ICT character. Steady state and time-resolved fluorescence studies have currently indicated that a thermally activated internal conversion (IC) occurred with DMAN[1,2]. The IC was assumed to be the consequence, of the vibronic coupling of the emissive S1 state and S2 state with the activation energy of the IC process depending on the energy gap between S1 and S2 states. It was hence put, forward that with increasing solvent, polarity the energy of the S1 state would be lowered more than that of the S2 state, leading to higher energy gap between the S1 and S2 states and therefore suppressed IC. As a consequence, increased fluorescence quantum yield and lengthened lifetime were observed. 相似文献

Using the second harmonic of a mode-locked Nd3+ laser, we show that the efficient quenching of the S1 state in crystal violet (τR < 10?8 sec, yet Q < 10?4 in ethanol), involves very rapid repopulation of the ground state. The repopulation time exhibits a cube root dependence on solvent viscosity. We argue that our data are best explained by direct internal conversion. We suggest that the class of triphenyl and diphenylmethane dyes should prove to be efficient and versatile bleachable shutters and passive mode-locking elements for laser construction. 相似文献

Cyanocobalamin (CNCbl) is a paradigm system for the study of excited electronic states and biological cofactors including the B12 vitamers. The photophysics of CNCbl has been thoroughly investigated using both ultrafast spectroscopy and time dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT). Herewe review the spectroscopic and theoretical investigations of CNCbl with emphasis on the nature of S1, the lowest excited electronic state, and extend the spectroscopic measurements to include the ultraviolet region of the spectrum. Ultrafast transient absorption measurements in the visible αβ band region and in the midinfrared led to assignment of the S1 state to a ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT) with lengthened axial bonds and a ~3 kcal/mol barrier for internal conversion to the ground state. The present measurements encompassing the γ band region of the spectrum provide further support for the assignment of the S1 state. The experiments are in good agreement with the results of TD-DFT calculations which confirm the expected lengthening of the axial bonds in S1 and account for the observed barrier for internal conversion back to the ground state. 相似文献

The influence of solvent on cationic propagation steps-modelled by ethene homopolymerization—is investigated by means of theoretical models. In order to achieve cationation and the first three propagation steps, the influence of solvent was simulated by a continuum model after calculation for the gas phase at the MINDO/3 level. Characteristic changes, caused by the transition from the gas phase to solution (solvent: CH2Cl2), were obtained, e.g. an increase of activation barriers and specific alterations of heats of reaction depending on the cationic chain length. The shape of a special potential energy surface for the first propagation step is qualitatively affected by the solvent leading to a change of the character of the activated complex from educt-like (gas phase) to product-like (solution). 相似文献

The cis-trans geometry of a nine-membered lactam significantly depends on the N-substituents; N-acyl-1-aza-2-cyclononanones (1a-c) exist as cis form; in contrast, N-Z- 1-aza-2-cyclononanone (1d) exists as trans form both in the crystal and in solution. 相似文献

The spectra of symmetry-forbidden transitions and internal conversion were investigated in the present work. Temperature dependence was taken into account for the spectra simulation. The vibronic coupling, essential in the two processes, was calculated based on the Herzberg-Teller theory within the Born-Oppenheimer approximation. The approach was employed for the symmetry-forbidden absorption/fluorescence, and internal conversion between 1(1)A(1g) and 1(1)B(2u) states in benzene. Vibrational frequencies, normal coordinates, electronic transition dipole moments, and non-adiabatic coupling matrix elements were obtained by ab initio quantum chemical methods. The main peaks, along with the weak peaks, were in good agreement with the observed ones. The rate constant of the 1(1)A(1g)← 1(1)B(2u) internal conversion was estimated within the order of 10(3) s(-1). This could be regarded as the lower limit (about 4.8 × 10(3) s(-1)) of the internal conversion. It is stressed that the distortion effect was taken into account both in the symmetry-forbidden absorption/fluorescence, and the rate constants of internal conversion in the present work. The distortion effects complicate the spectra and increase the rate constants of internal conversion. 相似文献

We investigate the nonradiative decay process of diphenyldibenzofulvene (DPDBF) in solid phase by using the quantum chemistry methods. To carry out the nonradiative rate constant calculation, we construct a solid phase model based on the ONIOM method. The geometry of the DPDBF molecule is optimized for the ground state by DFT and the first excited state by TD-DFT, and the corresponding vibrational frequencies and normal coordinates are computed. Under displaced-distorted harmonic oscillator potential approximation, Huang-Rhys factors are obtained. Vibronic coupling constants are calculated as a function of the normal mode based on Domcke's scheme. We find that vibronic coupling constants of 12 modes with large reorganization energies are of similar order, and if this result is still valid for other modes, the internal conversion rate would be determined by high frequency modes because they have a significant nuclear factor that is related to Franck-Condon overlap intergrals. We also find that geometrical changes are suppressed due to the stacking effect, which yields small Huang-Rhys values in the solid phase. 相似文献

Ab initio complete active-space self-consistent field (CASSCF) and second-order Multireference M?ller-Plesset perturbation (MRMP2) calculations were performed to examine the S1-S0 internal conversion of 6-cyanoazulene (6CNAZ). The azulene skeletons of 6CNAZ in S0 and S1 have features that resemble those of azulene. The stable geometry in S0 is characterized by (i) a C2v structure, (ii) an aromatic bond-equalized structure in which all the peripheral skeletal bond distances resemble an aromatic CC bond distance, and (iii) a single bond character of the transannular bond. The stable geometry in S1 is characterized by a nonaromatic C2v structure. Contrary to similarities of the stable geometries in S0 and S1 between 6CNAZ and azulene, the conical intersection (S1/S0-CIX) of 6CNAZ is different from that of azulene. The S1/S0-CIX of 6CNAZ takes a planar structure, whereas that of azulene takes a nonplanar structure in the seven-membered ring (Amatatsu, Y.; Komura, K. J. Chem. Phys. 2006, 125, 174311/1-8). On the basis of those computational findings, we predict the photochemical behavior of 6CNAZ in the S1-S0 internal conversion. 相似文献

The reaction coordinate of the S(2)-S(1) internal conversion (IC) of phenylacetylene (PA) was analyzed using the ab initio complete active space self-consistent field (CASSCF) method. In the first process after electronic excitation into S(2), the aromatic benzene ring is transformed into a nonaromatic quinoid structure. The ethynyl part (-C[triple bond]CH) takes an incomplete allenoid structure in which the CC bond elongates to an intermediate value between typical C[triple bond]C triple and C=C double bonds, but the bend angle of -CCH is 180 degrees . In the second process, PA takes a complete allenoid structure with an out-of-plane location of the beta-H atom (i.e., the H atom of the ethynyl part) and a further elongation of the CC bond so that PA is most stable in S(2) (S(2)-bent). The conical intersection between S(2) and S(1) (S(2)/S(1)-CIX) is located near the S(2)-bent geometry and is slightly unstable energetically. After transition at S(2)/S(1)-CIX, PA quickly loses both quinoid and allenoid structures and recovers the aromaticity of the benzene ring in S(1). Analysis of the dipole moment along the reaction coordinate shows that the weak electron-withdrawing group of the ethynyl part in S(0) suddenly changes into an electron-donating group in S(2) after the main transition of S(0)-S(2). The photoinduced change of the dipole moment is a driving force to the formation of a quinoid structure in S(2). Regarding the benefit of the reaction coordinate analysis of the multidimensional potential energy surfaces of PA, the present picture of the IC process is much more elaborate than our previous representation (Amatatsu, Y.; Hasebe, Y. J. Phys. Chem. A 2003 107, 11169-11173). Vibrational analyses along the reaction coordinate were also performed to support a time-resolved spectroscopic experiment on the S(2)-S(1) IC process of PA. 相似文献

The reaction coordinate of the S(1)-S(0) internal conversion of azulene has been analyzed using ab initio complete active space self-consistent field method. The stable geometry in S(0) (S(0) geometry) takes a bond-equalized structure where all the peripheral skeletal bond distances are similar to an aromatic CC bond distance. The transannular bond is similar to a normal C-C single bond. The first event upon electronic excitation into S(1) at S(0) geometry is characterized by the following two simultaneous changes in the skeletal bonds; the transannular bond in S(1) increases its double bond character and the aromaticity of the peripheral bonds disappears. In consequence, the most stable azulene in S(1) (S(1) geometry) has a biradical character. To reach the conical intersection between S(1) and S(0) (S(1)S(0)-CIX) where radiationless relaxation takes place, the seven-membered ring greatly deviates from a planar structure. After a transition into S(0) at S(1)S(0)-CIX, the bond-equalized structure is recovered immediately and then the nonplanarity decreases so that azulene again takes the stable planar S(0) geometry. In order to deepen the understanding of the S(1)-S(0) internal conversion, the dipole moments along the reaction coordinate have been analyzed. 相似文献

Experimental data obtained by the authors themselves and other published data on the dependence of the rate constants of internal conversion and intersystem crossing in exciplexes (back electron transfer) on the value of energy gap were critically revisited. The conclusion that these processes occur according to the mechanism of radiationless diabatic quantum transitions, rather than the preceding thermally activated solvent and reactant reorganizations was substantiated.Translated from Khimiya Vysokikh Energii, Vol. 39, No. 2, 2005, pp. 114–125.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Kuzmin, Soboleva, Dolotova, Dogadkin.This revised version was published online in April 2005 with a corrected cover date. 相似文献

A new internal conversion electron spectrometer with high energy resolution has been developed using a windowless Si(Li) detector, and its characteristics are examined and discussed. As a result, it is confirmed that the energy resolutions are 0.48 keV in FWHM for 42 keV electrons and 1.43 keV for 624 keV electrons, respectively. 相似文献

1-Adamantyl cations having three methyl groups or one, two, or three isopropyl groups on the 3-, 5-, and 7-positions were found by FT ICR to be more stable than the 1-adamantyl cation and that the stability increases with the number of isopropyl group. The relative stabilities calculated by PM3 were in good agreement with the experimental results. In contrast, the sequence of the rates for the solvolysis in nonaqueous solvents are 3,5,7-(Me)(3)-1-AdBr < 1-bromoadamantane (1-AdBr) < 3,5,7-(n-Pr)(3)-1-AdBr < 3,5,7-(i-Pr)(3)-1-AdBr. The rates of solvolysis of 3,5,7-(i-Pr)(3)-1-AdBr and 3,5,7-(n-Pr)(3)-1-AdBr relative to 1-AdBr at 25 degrees C are 15 and 3.8 in EtOH, respectively, but markedly decreases with the increase in the amount of added water, reaching 0.84 and 0.15, respectively, in 60% EtOH. Reflecting these effects of water, the Grunwald-Winstein (GW) relationship for 3,5,7-(i-Pr)(3)-1-AdBr and 3,5,7-(n-Pr)(3)-1-AdBr against Y(Br) is linear for nonaqueous alcohols (EtOH, MeOH, TFE-EtOH, TFE, 97% HFIP), but marked downward deviations are observed for aqueous organic solvents, in particular, aqueous ethanol and aqueous acetone. The effect of the alkyl substituents to diminish relative solvolytic reactivity in EtOH-H(2)O mixtures may be ascribed to a blend of steric hindrance to Betarphinsted base-type hydration to the beta-hydrogens and hydrophobic interaction of the alkyl groups with ethanol to make the primary solvation shell less ionizing. The introduction of one nonyl group to the 3-position showed much smaller deviations in the GW relationship than the case of 3,5,7-(n-Pr)(3)-1-AdBr. The markedly decelerated solvolysis of alkylated 1-bromoadamantanes in aqueous organic solvents is a kinetic version of anomalously diminished dissociation of alkylbenzoic acids in aqueous ethanol and aqueous tert-butyl alcohol that was demonstrated by Wepster and co-workers a decade ago and ascribed to hydrophobic effects. 相似文献

Quantum control of the S(2)-->S(1) internal conversion in a complete 24-mode dimensionality model of pyrazine is demonstrated. The fully quantum mechanical study makes use of the recently developed "QP algorithm" for performing accurate computations of projected quantum dynamics and the role of overlapping resonances in control. The results are extremely encouraging, demonstrating active control over internal conversion so as to almost completely suppress the process over time scales of approximately 50-100 fs [well in excess of the natural internal conversion times (approximately 20 fs)] or to accelerate it to complete internal conversion in less than 5 fs. A number of new diagnostics are introduced to demonstrate the significance of overlapping-resonance contributions to control. Control is far better than for a reduced dimensionality model of pyrazine, presumably because of the increased degree of overlap between bound state resonances existing in the full dimensionality case. 相似文献
