Proton transfer dynamics in the first excited singlet state of malonaldehyde

The dynamics of proton transfer in the first excited singlet state of malonaldehyde [Ã 1B1(π*n)] have been investigated through the use of high-resolution degenerate four-wave mixing spectroscopy. Observed Ã 1B1–X̃ 1A1 (π*←n) rovibronic features are at odds with previous absorption measurements and...

Zusammenfassung:The dynamics of proton transfer in the first excited singlet state of malonaldehyde [Ã 1B1(π*n)] have been investigated through the use of high-resolution degenerate four-wave mixing spectroscopy. Observed Ã 1B1–X̃ 1A1 (π*←n) rovibronic features are at odds with previous absorption measurements and cannot be explained readily through the accepted description of tunneling behavior within the Ã 1B1(π*n) potential surface.
