Chemical degradation of TAA occurs through the conical intersection present between ground and first excited singlet state with C–N bond dissociation, which channels the excited molecules to dissociate and form radical fragments or cyclized products.

Abstract The permanent dipole moment of a class of merocyanine dyes in their ground and first excited singlet state has been determined studying the influence of an external electric field on the absorption of the compounds in various solvents. Evaluation of the experimental results on the basis of the Onsager reaction field model also gives values for the polarizability in the ground and excited state, the latter approaches the value of a respective conducting ellipsoid with the longer chainlength molecules.

The first photo-excited singlet state of all-trans donor (amine), acceptor (cyano)-substituted hexatriene forms donor side-twisted minima and its passage towards the cis–trans–trans isomer is characterized by an S0/S1 conical intersection.

The structure, photophysical properties, and photochemistry of the adamantyl aryl ethers 1 in both methanol and cyclohexane have been examined. UV absorption spectra, 13C NMR chemical shifts, X-ray structures, and Gaussian calculations (B3LYP/6-31G(d)) indicate that these ethers adopt a 90° conformer in the ground state. In contrast, fluorescence spectra, excited singlet state lifetimes, and calculations (TDDFT) indicated a 0° conformer is preferred in the first excited singlet state S1. Irradiation in either solvent results in the formation of adamantane and the corresponding phenol as the major products, both derived from radical intermediates generated by homolytic cleavage of the ether bond. The 4-cyano substituted ether 1j was the only one to form the ion-derived product, 1-methoxyadamantane (16% yield), on irradiation in methanol. Rate constants of bond cleavage for these ethers from S1 were estimated by two different methods by comparison with the unreactive anisoles 2, but the effect of substituents was too small to determine structure–reactivity correlations. The temperature dependence of the quantum yields of the fluorescence of the unsub stituted, 4-methoxy and 4-cyano derivatives of 1 and 2 were also determined. These results indicated that the activated process for 1 was mainly bond cleavage for the 4-cyano substrate whereas for 2, it was internal conversion and intersystem crossing. Key words: aryl ether photochemistry, fluorescence, excited-state rate constants, excited-state temperature effects.

Studies on the electron transfer in the excited state from electron donors: acridine, 9- aminoacridine and its derivatives, including nitracrine and its isomers, to CCl4 as a suitable electron acceptor, were undertaken. UV radiation (λ= 366 nm), absorbed only by acridine bases, generates CI- ions. The fluorescence quenching measurements indicate that no interaction appears between molecules of acridine bases in the excited singlet state and CCl4 molecule. A scheme of photochemical processes is proposed which assumes that the triplet state of the base molecule is the reactive one.
