Formation of Metastable Triplet Acetylene from the Ã(1Au) State Near the Dissociation Threshold

Abstract: The triplet metastable states of acetylene produced by intersystem crossing from the Ã(1Au) state have been detected by a sensitized phosphorescence (SP) method. The phosphorescence was observed from C2H2 in the energy region below the barrier to dissociation in the ã state suggested by Hashimoto and Suzuki [J. Chem. Phys. 1996, 104, 6070]. The lifetimes of the triplet states coupled with the V3K and V4K1 levels in the Ã(1Au) state were estimated to be 80 and 100 μs. The rotational structures of the laser-ind… Show more

“…It is noted that similar fall-off of fluorescence occurs between the 1 1 2 1 V 2 K 1 and 1 2 V 1 K 1 levels in C 2 D 2 , 6,20 which means that the fall-off of fluorescence in C 2 D 2 occurs in higher energy than C 2 H 2 by 960 cm Ϫ1 . Normally, an isotope effect arises from the difference of the zero point energy between the isotopomers.…”

“…From the fluorescence decay of C 2 D 2 , the potential barrier is estimated to be 750-900 cm Ϫ1 . 20 The V 4 K 1 level is located below the fluorescence fall-off energy and its photophysical quantities are similar to those of V 3 K 1 . Nevertheless, the H atom signal is formed from this level.…”

“…There is an extensive body of literature -both experimental [183,185,[188][189][190][191][192][193][194][195] and theoretical [196][197][198][199] -on singlet-triplet interactions in C 2 H 2 , with intersystem crossing from triplet (S ¼ 1) states yielding channels for à -state C 2 H 2 to predissociate into C 2 H (X 2 AE þ ) þ H. Two pairs of cis-and trans-bent isomers have been identified: a˜3B 2 andb 3 B u , andc 3 A u andd 3 A 2 , in order of increasing energy. These lie above 28 500 cm À1 [197,198] and are therefore inaccessible to either one-or two-photon excitation within the S 0 linearX 1 AE þ g electronic ground state of C 2 H 2 by IR PUMP radiation used in IR-UV DR experiments that as discussed in section 5.2.4 and 5.2.5 below.…”
