Tuning the Excited-State Dynamics of Acetophenone Using Metal Ions in Solution

The effects of dissolved metal salts on the excited-state dynamics of acetophenone in solution have been explored by using ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopy at two UV excitation wavelengths. In the absence of metal ions, the S1(nπ*) transition of acetophenone is excited at 320 nm, with int...

Zusammenfassung:The effects of dissolved metal salts on the excited-state dynamics of acetophenone in solution have been explored by using ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopy at two UV excitation wavelengths. In the absence of metal ions, the S1(nπ*) transition of acetophenone is excited at 320 nm, with intersystem crossing (ISC) occurring with a time constant τISC = 5.95 ± 0.47 ps in acetonitrile solution. Excitation at 280 nm accesses the S2(ππ*) state, which internally converts (
