Triplet states can be interesting for optical switching of molecular fluorescence as well as quantum experiments relying on the manipulation of spin states.

The dynamics of spin flips induced by the femtosecond laser are theoretically investigated in this article. The spin flips in this scenario are attributed to the intersystem crossing (ISC) described within the frame of the Rabi model. This new explanation is a step attempting to explain the mechanism of the all-optical magnetic orientation switching in the perspective of the conservation of the angular momentum and breaks of the selection rule, which is ignored in the Raman scattering related explanations. The final spin states discussed herein are closely related to the intensity of the incident laser and the ISC decay rate. The quantitative analysis of the relation between decay rate, temperature and the intensity of the laser is discussed.

Intersystem crossing is an important chemical process. In this study, the rate constant of intersystem crossing, kISC ~3 × 107 s–1, for cyclopentane-1,3-diyl diradicals was unequivocally determined by the simultaneous observation of the decay process of the triplet diradical (λobs = 320 nm) and the growth process of the corresponding singlet diradical (λobs = 560 nm). The two spin states were directly observed using a long-lived singlet 2,2-dimethoxy-1,3-diphenylcyclopentane-1,3-diyl diradical.

We describe a new family of catalysts that undergo direct ground state singlet to excited state triplet excitation with IR light, leading to photoredox catalysis without the energy waste associated with intersystem crossing. The finding allows a mole scale reaction in batch using infrared irradiation.

<div><div><div><p>In this Letter, we introduce a new database called carbon long bond 18 (CLB18), composed of 18 structures with one long C–C bond. We use this new database to evaluate the performance of several low-cost methods commonly used for geometry optimization of medium and large molecules. We found that the long bonds in CLB18 are electronically different from those found in barrier heights databases. We also report the unexpected correlation between the results of CLB18 and those of the energetics of spin states in transition-metal complexes. Given this unique property, CLB18 can be a useful tool for assessing existing electronic structure calculation methods and developing new ones.</p></div></div></div>
