Ultrafast dynamics of the excited states of 1-(p-nitrophenyl)-2-(hydroxymethyl)pyrrolidine

The dynamics of the excited states of 1-(p-nitrophenyl)-2-(hydroxymethyl)pyrrolidine (p-NPP) has been investigated using the subpicosecond transient absorption spectroscopic technique in different kinds of solvents. Following photoexcitation using 400 nm light, conformational relaxation via twisting of the nitro group, internal conversion (IC) and the intersystem crossing (ISC) processes have been established to be the three major relaxation pathways responsible for the ultrafast deactivation of the excited singlet (S(1)) state. Although the nitro-twisting process has been observed in all kinds of solvents, the relative probability of the occurrence of the other two processes has been found to be extremely sensitive to solvent polarity, because of alteration of the relative energies of the S(1) and the triplet (T(n)) states. In the solvents of lower polarity, the ISC is predominant over the IC process, because of near isoenergeticity of the S(1)(ππ*) and T(3)(nπ*) states. On the other hand, in the solvents of very large polarity, the energy of the S(1)(ππ*) state becomes lower than those of both the T(3)(nπ*) and T(2)(nπ*/ππ*) states, but those of the T(1)(ππ*) state and the IC process to the ground electronic (S(0)) state are predominant over the ISC, and hence the triplet yield is nearly negligible. However, in the solvents of medium polarity, the S(1) and T(2) states become isoenergetic and the deactivation of the S(1) state is directed to both the IC and ISC channels. In the solvents of low and medium polarity, following the ISC process, the excited states undergo IC, vibrational relaxation, and solvation in the triplet manifold. On the other hand, following the IC process in the Franck-Condon region of the S(0) state, the vibrationally hot molecules with the twisted nitro group subsequently undergo the reverse nitro-twisting process via dissipation of the excess vibrational energy to the solvent or vibrational cooling.     

A study of the time-resolved fluorescence spectrum and red edge effect of ANF in a room-temperature ionic liquid

In a recent article, we have analyzed using molecular dynamics simulations the steady-state red edge effect (REE) observed by Samanta and co-workers when the fluorescent probe 2-amino-7-nitrofluorene (ANF) is photoexcited at different wavelengths in 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium ([BMIM+]) hexafluorophosphate ([PF6-]). In this letter, we predict the time- and wavelength-dependent emission spectra of ANF in the same ionic solvent. From the analysis of our simulated data, we are able to derive an approximate time scale for reorganization of the solvent around the solute probe. The effect that slow varying local liquid environments have on the overall time-dependent signal is also discussed.     

Twisting dynamics in the excited singlet state of Michler's ketone

Ultrafast relaxation dynamics of the excited singlet (S(1)) state of Michler's ketone (MK) has been investigated in different kinds of solvents using a time-resolved absorption spectroscopic technique with 120 fs time resolution. This technique reveals that conversion of the locally excited (LE) state to the twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) state because of twisting of the N,N-dimethylanilino groups with respect to the central carbonyl group is the major relaxation process responsible for the multi-exponential and probe-wavelength-dependent transient absorption dynamics of the S1 state of MK, but solvation dynamics does not have a significant role in this process. Theoretical optimization of the ground-state geometry of MK shows that the dimethylanilino groups attached to the central carbonyl group are at a dihedral angle of about 51 degrees with respect to each other because of steric interaction between the phenyl rings. Following photoexcitation of MK to its S1 state, two kinds of twisting motions have been resolved. Immediately after photoexcitation, an ultrafast "anti-twisting" motion of the dimethylanilino groups brings back the pretwisted molecule to a near-planar geometry with high mesomeric interaction and intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) character. This motion is observed in all kinds of solvents. Additionally, in solvents of large polarity, the dimethylamino groups undergo further twisting to about 90 degrees with respect to the phenyl ring, to which it is attached, leading to the conversion of the ICT state to the TICT state. Similar characteristics of the absorption spectra of the TICT state and the anion radical of MK establish the nearly pure electron transfer (ET) character of the TICT state. In aprotic solvents, because of the steep slope of the potential energy surface near the Franck-Condon (FC) or LE state region, the LE state is nearly nonemissive at room temperature and fluorescence emission is observed from only the ICT and TICT states. Alternatively, in protic solvents, because of an intermolecular hydrogen-bonding interaction between MK and the solvent, the LE region is more flat and stimulated emission from this state is also observed. However, a stronger hydrogen-bonding interaction between the TICT state and the solvent as well as the closeness between the two potential energy surfaces due to the TICT and the ground states cause the nonradiative coupling between these states to be very effective and, hence, cause the TICT state to be weakly emissive. The multi-exponentiality and strong wavelength-dependence of the kinetics of the relaxation process taking place in the S1 state of MK have arisen for several reasons, such as strong overlapping of transient absorption and stimulated emission spectra of the LE, ICT, and TICT states, which are formed consecutively following photoexcitation of the molecule, as well as the fact that different probe wavelengths monitor different regions of the potential energy surface representing the twisting motion of the excited molecule.     

Comparison of aqueous molecular dynamics with NMR relaxation and residual dipolar couplings favors internal motion in a mannose oligosaccharide.

An investigation has been performed to assess how aqueous dynamical simulations of flexible molecules can be compared against NMR data. The methodology compares state-of-the-art NMR data (residual dipolar coupling, NOESY, and (13)C relaxation) to molecular dynamics simulations in water over several nanoseconds. In contrast to many previous applications of residual dipolar coupling in structure investigations of biomolecules, the approach described here uses molecular dynamics simulations to provide a dynamic representation of the molecule. A mannose pentasaccharide, alpha-D-Manp-(1-->3)-alpha-D-Manp-(1-->3)-alpha-D-Manp-(1-->3)-alpha-D-Manp-(1-->2)-D-Manp, was chosen as the model compound for this study. The presence of alpha-linked mannan is common to many glycopeptides, and therefore an understanding of the structure and the dynamics of this molecule is of both chemical and biological importance. This paper sets out to address the following questions. (1) Are the single structures which have been used to interpret residual dipolar couplings a useful representation of this molecule? (2) If dynamic flexibility is included in a representation of the molecule, can relaxation and residual dipolar coupling data then be simultaneously satisfied? (3) Do aqueous molecular dynamics simulations provide a reasonable representation of the dynamics present in the molecule and its interaction with water? In summary, two aqueous molecular dynamics simulations, each of 20 ns, were computed. They were started from two distant conformations and both converged to one flexible ensemble. The measured residual dipolar couplings were in agreement with predictions made by averaging the whole ensemble and from a specific single structure selected from the ensemble. However, the inclusion of internal motion was necessary to rationalize the relaxation data. Therefore, it is proposed that although residual dipolar couplings can be interpreted as a single-structure, this may not be a correct interpretation of molecular conformation in light of other experimental data. Second, the methodology described here shows that the ensembles from aqueous molecular dynamics can be effectively tested against experimental data sets. In the simulation, significant conformational motion was observed at each of the linkages, and no evidence for intramolecular hydrogen bonds at either alpha(1-->2) or alpha(1-->3) linkages was found. This is in contrast to simulations of other linkages, such as beta(1-->4), which are often predicted to maintain intramolecular hydrogen bonds and are coincidentally predicted to have less conformational freedom in solution.     

Direct calculation of (1)H(2)O T(1) NMRD profiles and EPR lineshapes for the electron spin quantum numbers S = 1, 3/2, 2, 5/2, 3, 7/2, based on the stochastic Liouville equation combined with Brownian dynamics simulation

Direct calculation of electron spin relaxation and EPR lineshapes, based on Brownian dynamics simulation techniques and the stochastic Liouville equation approach (SLE-L) [Mol. Phys., 2004, 102, 1085-1093], is here generalized to high spin systems with spin quantum number S = 3/2, 2, 5/2, 3 and 7/2. A direct calculation method is demonstrated for electron spin-spin and spin-lattice relaxation, S-, X- and Q-band EPR-lineshapes and paramagnetic enhanced water proton T(1)- NMRD profiles. The main relaxation mechanism for the electron spin system is a stochastic second rank zero field splitting (ZFS). Brownian dynamics simulation techniques are used in describing a fluctuating ZFS interaction which comprises two parts namely the "permanent" part which is modulated by isotropic reorientation diffusion, and the transient part which is modulated by fast local distortion, which is also modelled by the isotropic rotation diffusion model. The SLE-L approach present is applicable both in the perturbation (Redfield) regime as well as outside the perturbation regime, in the so called slow motion regime.     

Voltammetric detection of damage to DNA caused by nitro derivatives of fluorene using an electrochemical DNA biosensor

An electrochemical DNA biosensor based on the screen printed carbon paste electrode (SPCPE) with an immobilized layer of calf thymus double-stranded DNA has been used for in vitro investigation of the interaction between genotoxic nitro derivatives of fluorene (namely 2-nitrofluorene and 2,7-dinitrofluorene) and DNA. Two types of DNA damage have been detected at the DNA/SPCPE biosensor: first, that caused by direct association of the nitrofluorenes, for which an intercalation association has been found using the known DNA intercalators [Cu(phen)₂]²⁺ and [Co(phen)₃]³⁺ as competing agents, and, second, that caused by short-lived radicals generated by electrochemical reduction of the nitro group (observable under specific conditions only).     

Quantum chemistry studies of electronically excited nitrobenzene, TNA, and TNT

The electronic excitation energies and excited-state potential energy surfaces of nitrobenzene, 2,4,6-trinitroaniline (TNA), and 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) are calculated using time-dependent density functional theory and multiconfigurational ab initio methods. We describe the geometrical and energetic character of excited-state minima, reaction coordinates, and nonadiabatic regions in these systems. In addition, the potential energy surfaces for the lowest two singlet (S(0) and S(1)) and lowest two triplet (T(1) and T(2)) electronic states are investigated, with particular emphasis on the S(1) relaxation pathway and the nonadiabatic region leading to radiationless decay of S(1) population. In nitrobenzene, relaxation on S(1) occurs by out-of-plane rotation and pyramidalization of the nitro group. Radiationless decay can take place through a nonadiabatic region, which, at the TD-DFT level, is characterized by near-degeneracy of three electronic states, namely, S(1), S(0), and T(2). Moreover, spin-orbit coupling constants for the S(0)/T(2) and S(1)/T(2) electronic state pairs were calculated to be as high as 60 cm(-1) in this region. Our results suggest that the S(1) population should quench primarily to the T(2) state. This finding is in support of recent experimental results and sheds light on the photochemistry of heavier nitroarenes. In TNT and TNA, the dominant pathway for relaxation on S(1) is through geometric distortions, similar to that found for nitrobenzene, of a single ortho-substituted NO(2). The two singlet and lowest two triplet electronic states are qualitatively similar to those of nitrobenzene along a minimal S(1) energy pathway.     

Time-dependent density functional theory study on intramolecular charge transfer and solvent effect of dimethylaminobenzophenone

The lower singlet excited states for dimethylaminobenzophenone have been investigated as a function of the twisting motion with inclusion of solvent effects. Theoretical calculations have been performed using time-dependent density functional theory. The B3LYP and MPW1PW91 functionals with a 6-311+G(2d,p) basis set have been used to compute transition energies. The solvent effects have been described within the polarizable continuum model. Ground-state geometries are optimized using density functional theory with both B3LYP and MPW1PW91 functionals combined with 6-31G(d) basis sets. Vertical absorption energy calculations characterize the lower singlet excited states both in vacuum and in different kinds of solvents. A large redshift of the absorption maximum in the polar solvent suggests an intramolecular charge transfer character of the excited state. We have constructed the potential energy curves of two possible twisting motions of the excited states both in vacuum and in the polar solvent of acetonitrile: the twisting of only the dimethylamino group and the twisting of the dimethylaminophenyl group with respect to the benzoyl group. Both twisting processes predict the formation of the twisted intramolecular charge transfer state associated with the crossing of a low barrier. The presence of the polar solvent significantly changes the shape of the energy curves. Calculated emission energies for both the isolated and the solvated systems show a large Stokes shift between the absorption and fluorescence maxima. Two possible twisting motions produce similar fluorescence spectroscopic consequences. Our results including solvent effects explain the weak "dual-fluorescence" feature of dimethylaminobenzophenone, and imply that the two possible twisting motions may occur in the excited-state relaxation dynamics, but the twisting of the dimethylamino group seems to take place easier.     

Hydrogen-bonded Intramolecular Charge Transfer Excited State of Dimethylaminobenzophenone using Time Dependent Density FunctionalTheory

Density functional theory and time-dependent density-functional theory have been used to investigate the photophysical properties and relaxation dynamics of dimethylaminobenzophe-none (DMABP) and its hydrogen-bonded DMABP-MeOH dimer. It is found that, in non-polar aprotic solvent, the transitions from S₀ to S₁ and S₂ states of DMABP have both n→π^* and π→π^* characters, with the locally excited feature mainly located on the C=O group and the partial CT one characterized by electron transfer mainly from the dimethylaminophenyl group to the C=O group. But when the intermolecular hydrogen bond C=O…H-O is formed, the highly polar intramolecular charge transfer character switches over to the first excited state of DMABP-MeOH dimer and the energy difference between the two low-lying electronically excited states increases. To gain insight into the relaxation dynamics of DMABP and DMABP-MeOH dimer in the excited state, the potential energy curves for con-formational relaxation are calculated. The formation of twisted intramolecular charge trans-fer state via diffusive twisting motion of the dimethylamino/dimethylaminophenyl groups is found to be the major relaxation process. In addition, the decay of the S1 state of DMABP-MeOH dimer to the ground state, through nonradiative intermolecular hydrogen bond stretching vibrations, is facilitated by the formation of the hydrogen bond between DMABP and alcohols.     

Explanation of spin-lattice relaxation rates of spin labels obtained with multifrequency saturation recovery EPR

Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) pulsed saturation recovery (pSR) measurements of spin-lattice relaxation rates have been made on nitroxide-containing fatty acids embedded in lipid bilayers by Hyde and co-workers. The data have been collected for a number of spin-labeled fatty acids at several microwave spectrometer frequencies (from 2 to 35 GHz). We compare these spin-lattice relaxation rates to those predicted by the Redfield theory incorporating several mechanisms. The dominant relaxation mechanism at low spectrometer frequencies is the electron-nuclear dipolar (END) process, with spin rotation (SR), chemical shift anisotropy (CSA), and a generalized spin diffusion (GSD) mechanism all contributing. The use of a wide range of spectrometer frequencies makes clear that the dynamics cannot be modeled adequately by rigid-body isotropic rotational motion. The dynamics of rigid-body anisotropic rotational motion is sufficient to explain the experimental relaxation rates within the experimental error. More refined models of the motion could have been considered, and our analysis does not rule them out. However, the results demonstrate that measurements at only two suitably chosen spectrometer frequencies are sufficient to distinguish anisotropic from isotropic motion. The results presented demonstrate that the principal mechanisms responsible for anisotropically driven spin-lattice relaxation are well understood in the liquids regime.     

Probing side-chain dynamics in the proteasome by relaxation violated coherence transfer NMR spectroscopy

A pair of experiments is presented for measuring intra-methyl 1H-1H dipolar cross-correlated spin relaxation rates in highly deuterated, methyl protonated proteins with significantly improved sensitivity relative to previously developed experiments that measure dynamics via 1H spin relaxation. In applications to proteins with correlation times in the macromolecular limit, these cross-correlation rates are related directly to order parameters, characterizing the amplitude of motion of methyl-containing side-chains. The experimental approach is validated by comparing extracted order parameters with those obtained via 2H and 13C spin relaxation methods for both protein L (7.5 kDa) and malate synthase G (82 kDa), with excellent correlations obtained. The methodology is applied to study Ile, Leu, and Val side-chain dynamics in a 360 kDa "half-proteasome" complex. In particular, order parameters obtained from the WT complex and from a second complex where the proteasome gating residues are deleted establish that the relative levels of dynamics in each of the two molecules are very similar. It thus becomes clear that there is no communication between gating residues and other regions of the molecule involving pico- to nanosecond time-scale dynamics of these methyl-containing side-chains.     

Nuclear quadrupole resonance in 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene

A study of the spin lattice relaxation (T₁) and the nuclear quadrupole resonance frequency (ν_Q) gives an important information about the dynamics of molecular groups in molecular solids. In the present paper, we analyze the contributions of the reorientational motion of nitro groups of 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene to the NQR parameters of the chlorine nucleus in the molecule.

We found two contributions to T₁ and ν_Q due to the onset of the reorientation of nitro groups in the molecule; one of these contributions is mostly due to intermolecular effects in the crystal. For the chlorine nuclei, the efficiency of the modulation mechanism is usually provided by the change of the electric field gradient due to the moving molecular group; this gives us a way of how to assign each contribution to T₁ from the ortho and para positions of the NO₂ groups in the molecule. It is observed that there are two different potential barriers depending on the position of the nitro groups in the molecule. The behavior in the temperature dependence of the line width shows a thermal history dependence of the molecular crystal.     

Solvation oscillations and excited-state dynamics of 2-amino- and 2-hydroxy-7-nitrofluorene and its 2'-deoxyriboside

Push-pull substituted fluorenes are considered for use as dynamic solvation probes in polynucleotides. Their fluorescence band is predicted (by simulations) to show weak spectral oscillations on the subpicosecond time scale depending on the nucleotide sequence. The oscillations reflect the local far-infrared spectrum of the environment around the probe molecule. A connection is provided by the continuum theory of polar solvation which, however, neglects molecular aspects. We examine the latter using acetonitrile solution as a test case. A collective librational solvent mode at 100 cm(-1) is observed with 2-amino-7-nitrofluorene, 2-dimethylamino-7-nitrofluorene, 2-hydroxy-7-nitrofluorene, and its 2'-deoxyriboside. Different strengths of the oscillation indicate that rotational friction of nearby acetonitrile molecules depends on the solute structure or that H bonding is involved in launching the librational coherence. Polar solvation in methanol is used for comparison. With hydroxynitrofluorenes, the observation window is limited by intersystem crossing for which rates are reported. A prominent excited-state absorption band of nitrofluorenes at 430 nm can be used to monitor polar solvation. Structural and electronic relaxation pathways are discussed with the help of quantum chemical calculations.     

Theory for spin-lattice relaxation of spin probes on weakly deformable DNA

The weakly bending rod (WBR) model of double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) is adapted to analyze the internal dynamics of dsDNA as observed in electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) measurements of the spin-lattice relaxation rate, R(1e), for spin probes rigidly attached to nucleic acid-bases. The WBR theory developed in this work models dsDNA base-pairs as diffusing rigid cylindrical discs connected by bending and twisting springs whose elastic force constants are kappa and alpha, respectively. Angular correlation functions for both rotational displacement and velocity are developed in detail so as to compute values for R(1e) due to four relaxation mechanisms: the chemical shift anisotropy (CSA), the electron-nuclear dipolar (END), the spin rotation (SR), and the generalized spin diffusion (GSD) relaxation processes. Measured spin-lattice relaxation rates in dsDNA under 50 bp in length are much faster than those calculated for the same DNAs modeled as rigid rods. The simplest way to account for this difference is by allowing for internal flexibility in models of DNA. Because of this discrepancy, we derive expressions for the spectral densities due to CSA, END, and SR mechanisms directly from a weakly bending rod model for DNA. Special emphasis in this development is given to the SR mechanism because of the lack of such detail in previous treatments. The theory developed in this paper provides a framework for computing relaxation rates from the WBR model to compare with magnetic resonance relaxation data and to ascertain the twisting and bending force constants that characterize DNA.     

Ultrafast nonradiative decay of electronically excited States of malachite green: ab initio calculations

We have investigated the nonradiative deactivation process of malachite green in the singlet excited states, S(1) and S(2), by high-level ab initio quantum chemical calculations using the CASPT2//CASCF approach. The deactivation pathways connecting the Franck-Condon region and conical intersection regions are identified. The initial population in the S(1) state is on a flat surface and the relaxation involves a rotation of phenyl rings, which leads the molecule to reach the conical intersection between the S(1) and S(0) states, where it efficiently decays back to the ground state. There exists a small barrier connecting the Franck-Condon and conical intersection regions on the S(1) potential energy surface. The decay mechanism from the S(2) state also involves the twisting motion of phenyl rings. In contrast to the excitation to the S(1) state, the initial population is on a downhill ramp potential and the barrierless relaxation through the rotation of substituted phenyl rings is expected. During the course of relaxation, the molecule switches to the S(1) state at the conical intersection between S(2) and S(1), and then it decays back to the ground state through the intersection between S(1) and S(0). In relaxation from both S(1) and S(2), large distortion of phenyl rings is required for the ultrafast nonradiative decay to the ground state.     

Ab initio molecular dynamics of excited-state intramolecular proton transfer around a three-state conical intersection in malonaldehyde

Excited-state potential energy surface (PES) characterization is carried out at the CASSCF and MRSDCI levels, followed by ab initio dynamics simulation of excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) on the S2(pipi*) state in malonaldehyde. The proton-transfer transition state lies close to an S2/S1 conical intersection, leading to substantial coupling of proton transfer with electronic relaxation. Proton exchange proceeds freely on S2, but its duration is limited by competition with twisting out of the molecular plane. This rotamerization pathway leads to an intersection of the three lowest singlet states, providing the first detailed report of ab initio dynamics around a three-state intersection (3SI). There is a significant energy barrier to ESIPT on S1, and further pyramidalization of the twisted structure leads to the minimal energy S1/S0 intersection and energetic terminal point of excited-state dynamics. Kinetics and additional mechanistic details of these pathways are discussed. Significant depletion of the spectroscopic state and recovery of the ground state is seen within the first 250 fs after photoexcitation.     

Methyl dynamics in proteins from NMR slowly relaxing local structure spin relaxation analysis: A new perspective

NMR spin relaxation of (2)H nuclei in (13)CH(2)D groups is a powerful method for studying side-chain motion in proteins. The analysis is typically carried out with the original model-free (MF) approach adapted to methyl dynamics. The latter is described in terms of axial local motions around, and of, the methyl averaging axis, mutually decoupled and independent of the global motion of the protein. Methyl motion is characterized primarily by the axial squared order parameter, S(axis)2, associated with fluctuations of the methyl averaging axis. This view is shown to be oversimplified by applying to typical experimental data the slowly relaxing local structure (SRLS) approach of Polimeno and Freed (Adv. Chem. Phys. 1993, 83, 89) which can be considered the generalization of the MF approach. Neglecting mode coupling and the asymmetry of the local ordering and treating approximately features of local geometry imply inaccurate values of S(axis)2, hence of the residual configurational entropy derived from it. S(axis)2, interpreted as amplitude of motion, was found to range from near disorder to almost complete order. Contrary to this picture, we find with the SRLS approach a moderate distribution in the magnitude of asymmetric local ordering and significant variation in its symmetry. The latter important property can be associated implicitly with the contribution of side-chain rotamer jumps. This is consistent with experimental residual dipolar coupling studies and theoretical work based on molecular dynamics simulations and molecular mechanics considerations. Configurational entropy is obtained in the SRLS approach directly from experimentally determined asymmetric potentials. Inconsistency between order parameters from 2H relaxation and from eta(HC-HH) cross-correlation and increase in order parameters with increasing temperature were observed with the MF approach. These discrepancies are reconciled, and physically tenable temperature dependence is obtained with the SRLS approach.     

Chiral symmetry-breaking dynamics in the phase transformation of nematic droplets

Dynamic simulations of the isotropic–nematic phase transformation of liquid crystal droplets with homeotropic surface anchoring are found to predict chiral symmetry-breaking dynamics. These observations occur when using material parameters for pentyl-cyanobiphenyl (5CB) but not with the single elastic constant approximation for this material, which is frequently used in simulations. The twisting dynamic process occurs during the relaxation of the domain from an unstable radial texture to a stable uniform texture and involves simultaneous defect loop motion and twisting of the bulk nematic texture.
