邻二氯苯激发态动力学

利用飞秒分辨的激光泵浦-探测技术结合飞行时间质谱和光电子速度成像方法研究了邻二氯苯第一电子单重激发态(S₁)的超快动力学.邻二氯苯的S₁态振动基态寿命为(651 ± 10) ps,对应于S₁振动基态向三重态的系间窜越过程.邻二氯苯S₁的高振动激发9a₂18a₂对应两个衰减通道,其中寿命为(458 ± 12) fs的超快过程对应于由处于振动激发的S₁向高振动激发的基态(S₀)发生的内转换过程,而寿命为(90 ± 10) ps过程则对应由S₁态向三重态(T₁)的系间窜越过程,电离产生的光电子能谱中长寿命的谱峰可能与系间窜越过程有关. S₁态高振动态的旋轨耦合程度比低振动态的更强,导致系间窜越过程更快.

2-甲基呋喃分子激发态超快非绝热动力学

Excited-state dynamics of 2-methyl furan has been studied by femtosecond time-resolved photoelectron imaging. The molecule 2-methyl furan was simultaneously excited to the n=3 Rydberg series of S₁[¹A"(π3s)], ¹A'(π3p_x), ¹A"(π3p_y) and ¹A"(π3p_z) and the valence state of ¹A'(ππ^*) by two 400 nm photons and subsequently probed by two 800 nm photons. The average lifetime of the Rydberg series and the valence state was measured to be on the time scale of 50 fs by the time-dependent ion yield of the parent ion. Ultrafast internal conversions among these excited states were observed and extracted from the time-dependences of the photoelectron kinetic energy components of these excited states in the photoelectron kinetic energy spectra. Furthermore, it is identified that the ¹A'(ππ^*) state might play an important role in internal conversions among these excited states. The Rydberg-valence mixings, which result in numerous conical intersections, act as the driving force to accomplish such ultrafast internal conversions.     

2,4-二硫代尿嘧啶的紫外吸收光谱和共振拉曼光谱

硫代嘧啶碱基是光动力疗法潜在的重要光敏剂,其最低单重激发态的光物理研究已有广泛报道。然而,其较高激发态的跃迁性质和反应动力学研究较为稀少。因此,本文采用共振拉曼光谱和密度泛函理论计算方法研究2,4-二硫代尿嘧啶的紫外光谱和几个较高单重激发态的短时结构动力学。首先,基于共振拉曼光谱强度与电子吸收带振子强度f的关系,将紫外光谱去卷积成四个吸收带,分别为358 nm(f=0.0336)中等强度吸收带(A带),338 nm(f=0.1491)、301 nm(f=0.1795)和278 nm(f=0.3532)强而宽的吸收带(B、C和D带)。这一结果既吻合密度泛函理论计算结果,又符合共振拉曼光谱强度模式对紫外光谱带的预期。据此,去卷积得到的四个吸收带被分别指认为S0→S2跃迁、S0→S6跃迁、S0→S7跃迁和S_0→S_8跃迁。同时,分别对B,C和D带共振拉曼光谱进行了详细的指认,获得了短时动力学信息。结果表明,S_8态短时动力学的显著特征是在Franck-Condon区域或附近发生了S8(ππ~*)/S(nπ~*)势能面交叉引发的、伴随超快结构扭转的非绝热过程。S7和S6态短时动力学的主要特征是反应坐标的多维性,它们分别沿C_5C_6/C_2S_8/C_4S_(10)/N_2C_3+C_4N_3H_9/N_1C_2N_3/C_2N_1C_6/C_6N_1H_7/C_5C_6H_(12)和C_5C_6/N_3C_2/C_4S_(10)/C_2S_8+C_6N_1H_7/C_5C_6H_(12)/C_5C_6N_1/C_5C_6H_(12)/C_2N_1C_6/N_1C_2N_3/C_4N_3H_9/N_1C_2N_3等内坐标演化。     

Intersystem crossing at singlet conical intersections

The energy of the lowest triplet state of organic molecules is intermediate between the ground state and the first excited singlet. At the S₁/S₀ conical intersection, the two singlet states are degenerate. It is shown that for some molecules (ethylene, benzene, toluene and pyrrole) the T₁ state is also degenerate with the two singlet states. Moreover, the spin orbit coupling matrix element at this structure is necessarily large, so that intersystem crossing can be quite efficient. If the lowest triplet state is repulsive (as in the studied molecules) it may significantly contribute to the dissociation yield under certain experimental conditions.     

The potential energy surfaces and the radiationless dynamics of excited states of benzene and pyrazine

The potential energy surfaces of the lowest excited states of benzene and pyrazine are investigated as a function of some of the symmetry-adapted internal coordinates by means of the INDO/S method. A large stabilization of the T₂ (ππ*) state of pyrazine (≈ 0.5 eV) along the S_8b vibrational coordinate is found. The calculated potential energy in some excited states (T₁ in benzene, T₂ and S₂ in pyrazine) is a very flat function of the S_16b vibrational coordinate, leading to a crossing with the potential energy of the ground state at relatively small excess of vibrational energy (≈ 1 eV). Thus the ν_16b vibrational mode is postulated to play an important role in the radiationless relaxation to the ground states of these systems. No such crossing has been found near the “channel three” threshold of benzene.     

Water effect on the excited-state decay paths of singlet excited cytosine

Two low-energy deactivation paths for singlet excited cytosine, one through a S₁/S₀ conical intersection of the ethylene type, and one through a conical intersection that involves the (n_N, π^*) state, are calculated in the presence of water. Water is included explicitly for several cytosine monohydrates, and as a bulk solvent, and the calculations are carried out at the complete active space self-consistent field (CASSCF) and complete active space second order perturbation (CASPT2) levels of theory. The effect of water on the lowest-energy path through the ethylenic conical intersection is a lowering of the energy barrier. This is explained by stabilization of the excited state, which has zwitterionic character in the vicinity of the conical intersection due to its similarity with the conical intersection of ethylene. In contrast to this, the path that involves the (n_N, π^*) state is destabilized by hydrogen bonding, although the bulk solvent effect reduces the destabilization. Overall, this path should remain energetically accessible.     

Ru/氧化物催化剂在甲苯部分加氢反应中的载体效应

采用浸渍-化学还原法制备了一系列负载型Ru催化剂,考察了一些常见的氧化物载体（SiO₂、m-ZrO₂、t-ZrO₂、γ-Al₂O₃和P25）对甲苯部分加氢制甲基环己烯催化性能的影响。采用N₂物理吸附、X射线粉末衍射（XRD）、透射电子显微镜（TEM）和X射线光电子能谱（XPS）等手段对催化剂进行了系统的表征。研究表明,载体通过影响Ru的粒径,进而影响甲苯部分加氢催化性能。当Ru纳米粒子的粒径由2.6 nm增大到17.3 nm时,甲苯的转换频率（TOF）以及甲基环己烯初始选择性（S₀）先增加,然后降低,呈火山型变化趋势,二者的最大值均在Ru粒径为3.0 nm时出现。在催化性能最优的Ru/P25催化剂上,进一步考察了修饰剂的种类和浓度、反应温度、反应压力等条件的影响。当反应温度为423 K、H₂压力为5.0 MPa,以0.25 g七水合硫酸锌为修饰剂时,Ru/P25催化剂上的初始加氢速率（r₀）为26 mmol·g^-1·min^-1,S₀为57%,甲基环己烯得率可达36%。     

Photoluminescence of 2-aminofluorene: a relook

The absorption and fluorescence spectra of 2-aminofluorene (2-AF) have been studied as a function of solvent polarity and acid concentration. Using the multiparametric approach of Taft et al., it is clear that 2-AF is a better proton acceptor in the S₀ state and a proton donor in the S₁ state. Excitation of 2-AF to three electronically excited states has shown that fluorescence is always observed from the lowest excited singlet state, but fluorescence quantum yield increases with the increase of λ_exc. The decrease in fluorescence quantum yield with increase in solvent polarity and hydrogen bonding is due to solvent-induced quenching. A correspondence is observed between the decrease and increase in fluorescence intensities of the neutral and monocation, respectively, in the pH range from 6 to 3. Proton-induced fluorescence quenching of neutral 2-AF is noticed in the pH range 3 to 1. pK_a and values were determined for different prototropic equilibria and are discussed.     

A theoretical study of molecular structure in the excited state and molecular luminescence : III. Types of molecular structure in the excited ππ singlet states

The molecular geometry (bond lengths) in the S₁, and S₂ excited states of a large number of conjugated organic molecules is calculated with the help of the SCF-CI-SC procedure, already described in previous communications. The analysis shows that all excited states studied can be classified in three basic types of structure: (1) with strong conjugation over the whole molecule or along its periphery; (2) with a long main conjugated framework and other shorter conjugated fragments moderately or slightly bonded with the framework and (3) structures consisting of two or more fragments slightly conjugated to each other. An estimation of the role of the possible intramolecular motions of low frequency is done, as well as some other factors contributing to the radiationless deactivation of a given excited state. The presence of structures with both lowest excited singlets of type 1 is shown.
