Excited-state proton-electron simultaneous transfer

5 Excited-state proton-electron simultaneous transfer [Pg.322]

We here report a nonadiabatic electron wavepacket study on the excited state reaction in phenol that is hydrogen-bonded with ammonia clusters Ph OH (NH3) PhO [H (NHs) ] (7.42) [Pg.322]

Phenol has been interesting many chemists as a model system to study how photo-excited bases in DNA can deactivate to the ground state without resulting in mutation. Not only in such biology-oriented studies, this molecule shows many other interesting features when put in surrounding molecules, clusters, and solvents. Small ammonia clusters are frequently used in place of water-molecule clusters, because ammonia is more proton-attractive than water, and very extensive studies have been performed [Pg.322]

The studies so far made for this ESHAT employed the ab initio configuration interaction (Cl) and/or complete active space SCF (CAS-SCF) methods and examined only the two lowest coupled potential energy surfaces (and nuclear wavepacket dynamics simplified [228]). However, because of the fact that the relevant excited states are highly quasi-degenerate in reality, and in view of the complicated nature of electron dynamics associated with proton transfer as described above, it is worthwhile to re-examine the mechanism from the nonadiabatic electron wavepacket dynamics. [Pg.323]

It turns out that the found mechanism is not as schematically simple as the SDDJ model, and it is more appropriate to be referred to as coupled proton-electron transfer in excited state , rather than hydrogen-atom transfer . This mechanism further requires the study of recombination dynamics between the separated charges in clusters and solvents. [Pg.323]


One may consider the relaxation process to proceed in a similar manner to other reactions in electronic excited states (proton transfer, formation of exciplexes), and it may be described as a reaction between two discrete species initial and relaxed.1-7 90 1 In this case two processes proceeding simultaneously should be considered fluorescence emission with the rate constant kF= l/xF, and transition into the relaxed state with the rate constant kR=l/xR (Figure 2.5). The spectrum of the unrelaxed form can be recorded from solid solutions using steady-state methods, but it may be also observed in the presence of the relaxed form if time-resolved spectra are recorded at very short times. The spectrum of the relaxed form can be recorded using steady-state methods in liquid media (where the relaxation is complete) or using time-resolved methods at very long observation times, even as the relaxation proceeds. [Pg.87]
