采用基于多构型从头计算的直接轨道表面跳跃方法,研究了甲酰胺低激发态n(O)-pi(*)和pi-pi(*)的短时间光动力学(1 ps).模拟结果表明,在这两种状态下,主要的失活过程是C-N键的解离。在基态,能量被转移到(a)HCO和NH 2碎片的平移运动,(B)从振动热的HCO碎片的额外C-H解离,或(c)NH3和CO的形成。除了C-N解离途径之外,发现C-O键裂变是pi-pi(*)动力学中的额外主要失活途径。从轨道的分数占用,甲酰胺的寿命估计:τ(S-1)=441 fs和τ(S-2)=66 fs。
The short-time photodynamics (1 ps) of formamide in its low-lying singlet excited n(O)-pi(*) and pi-pi(*) states have been investigated by the direct trajectory surface-hopping method based on multiconfigurational ab initio calculations. The simulations showed that in both states, the primary deactivation process is C-N bond dissociation. In the ground state, the energy is transferred to (a) translational motion of the HCO and NH2 fragments, (b) additional C-H dissociation from the vibrationally hot HCO fragment, or (c) formation of NH3 and CO. In addition to the C-N dissociation pathway, C-O bond fission is found to be an additional primary deactivation path in the pi-pi(*) dynamics. From fractional occupations of trajectories, lifetimes of formamide were estimated: tau(S-1)=441 fs and tau(S-2)=66 fs.
