“…From studies of intramolecular dimer radical cations formed in 1,3-dipyrenylpropanes 70 it is known that the pyrene dimer cation has a charge resonance band. Depending on the distance and the overlap of the orbitals of the two pyrene moieties, this band is positioned from max Ͼ2.2 m in a dipyrenyl with a large intermoiety distance to max ϭ1.45 m in a solution of pyrene.…”

Articles you may be interested in TTF-TCNE a charge transfer π-molecular crystal with partial ionic ground state: Optical properties and electron molecular vibrations interaction Coherent vibrational wave packet motion is created in the excited charge-transfer state of the electron donor-acceptor complex between tetracyanoethylene ͑TCNE͒ and pyrene by an ultrashort ͑40 fs͒ 810 nm pump pulse. Observations of the dynamics of the TCNE-anion transient absorption and the disappearance of the bleach of the ground state absorption show that the electron-transfer reaction back to the ground state of the complex occurs on a 250 fs-1.5 ps time scale. The bleach recovery signal shows clear oscillations and both impulsive stimulated Raman scattering in the ground state and coherent repopulation of the ground state surface due to a vibrationally coherent electron transfer reaction were considered as the cause. Vibrational coherence has also been monitored by observing quantum beats in the stimulated emission from the charge transfer state back to the ground state in the near-ir. This observation strongly suggests that the electron transfer reaction is indeed vibrationally coherent and that the reaction rate is modulated by this coherence. This interpretation is corroborated by a classical Monte Carlo simulation of vibrationally coherent reactions in the inverted regime.

“…Most CR bands of dimer radical cations of aromatic molecules are known to have energy. [16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24] The wavelength of the near-IR band observed in the present experiment corresponds with that (930-935 nm) of a CR band of a benzene dimer radical cation.17 Secondly, in very dilute solutions (< 1 x 10-5 mol dm-3) the band in the near-IR region was not observed, while the absorption in the visible region due to the radical itself was observed as mentioned above. This result strongly suggested that the near-IR band was caused by the intermolecular interactions.…”

“…There are considerable interests in electronic interactions in excimers and dimer radical canons for chromophores connected with different lengths of alkyl chains. [1][2][3] The charge resonance (CR) band is characteristic absorption of dimer radical canons, which is due to the splitting of the energy levels of both the ground and excited states by the electronic interaction between two chromophores sharing an unpaired electron. [4,5] It has been observed for intermolecular and intramolecular dimer radical cations formed by steady photolysis at very low temperature or by nanosecond (ns) laser flash photolysis and by ns pulse radiolysis at room temperature.…”
The charge resonance (CR) interactions of a series of bis(4-(4-nitrostyryl)pyridinium)alkane derivatives upon steady photoexcitation through a band pass filter (405 nm) were studied by absorption spectroscopy at room temperature. The CR bands due to the intermolecular or intramolecular dimer radical cations were observed with peaks extending from 950 nm to 1 740 nm. The CR band of intermolecular dimer radical caton was common to all these compounds. The relative constant of dimer radical cations depended on the alkyl chain length and the irradiation time. The CR band of intramolecular dimer radical cation was sensitive to their geometrical structure and showed the formation of different dimer radical cations.
