Effects of Methyl Substitution on the Ultrafast Internal Conversion of Benzene.
The effects of methyl substitution on the ultrafast internal conversion from the S2(1B1u, ππ*) state to the S0 state of benzene were studied using ultrafast extreme-ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy and electronic structure calculations. The quantum yield of the internal conversion to the S0 state reached ∼0.69 in benzene, while lower values of 0.35 and 0.12 were obtained for toluene and o-xylene, respectively. These results indicate that methyl substitution makes the conical intersections less accessible to the nuclear wave packet.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Physical Chemistry (JPC) Letters is devoted to reporting new and original experimental and theoretical basic research of interest to physical chemists, biophysical chemists, chemical physicists, physicists, material scientists, and engineers. An important criterion for acceptance is that the paper reports a significant scientific advance and/or physical insight such that rapid publication is essential. Two issues of JPC Letters are published each month.
