Nonstatistical Photoinduced Processes in Gaseous Organic Molecules

Abstract: Processes that proceed in femtoseconds are usually referred to as being ultrafast, and they are investigated in experiments that involve laser pulses with femtosecond duration in so-called pump probe schemes, where a light pulse triggers a molecular process and a second light pulse interrogates the temporal evolution of the molecular population. The focus of this review is on the reactivity patterns that arise when energy is not equally distributed on all the available degrees of freedom as a consequence of th… Show more

“…Current pursuits in organic reaction mechanisms almost require some treatment for or discussion of dynamics as so many investigations of reactions keep turning up new details with a deeper analysis. A number of reviews help to frame the current concerns on the topic, [ 1–21 ] while one of Carpenter's more recent reviews [ 22 ] might be one of the more accessible reviews on the topic for the organic chemistry community. The work presented here focuses on an organic reaction mechanism, and of the many different reasons for non‐statistical reaction dynamics, this paper focuses on intramolecular vibrational energy redistribution (IVR).…”

“…The efficiency of energy transfer processes in multichromomoric molecular systems has nonstatistical character due to its ultrafast aspect, quantum-mechanical delocalization and localization, and nontrivial participation of specific nuclear motions. 17,18 The presence of one or a few main vibrational funnels avoids the energy dissipation among numerous vibrational motions or the solvent/bath degrees of freedom. 19,20 The so-called active vibrational modes are defined as modes that actively participate in the energy transfer by coupling the electronic states, and different strategies are proposed to identify them 19,21−26 in the context of conical intersections.…”

“…The efficiency of energy transfer processes in multichromomoric molecular systems has nonstatistical character due to its ultrafast aspect, quantum-mechanical delocalization and localization, and nontrivial participation of specific nuclear motions. , The presence of one or a few main vibrational funnels avoids the energy dissipation among numerous vibrational motions or the solvent/bath degrees of freedom. , The so-called active vibrational modes are defined as modes that actively participate in the energy transfer by coupling the electronic states, and different strategies are proposed to identify them , in the context of conical intersections. Atomistic nonadiabatic dynamics simulations are a useful pragmatic methodology to analyze these relevant vibrations. Herein, we make use of the NEXMD software package, , particularly developed to describe photoinduced dynamics in relatively large conjugated multichromophoric molecules. NEXMD has proved to be suitable for the analysis of exciton redistributions and vibronic dynamics during electronic relaxation in this class of molecular systems. , …”
