Abstract: | The T1 ? S0 intersystem crossing process in stilbene is considered adopting a formulation in which the isomerization coordinate can be treated separately. Energy surfaces in agreement with experimental and theoretical results are employed and pertinent spin-orbit coupling is evaluated. The calculated decay rate is in good agreement with the experimental results based on the azulene quenching effect. The qualitative feature that quantum yield for cis formation tends to be higher than the counterpart trans formation is explained. Deuterium effects are discussed and explanations for them are suggested. |
