Fast intersystem crossing is observed in the S-1 (1)n pi* state of N-heterocyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and carbonyl compounds. It is attributed to spin-orbit coupling with the (3)pi pi* state in the same energy region. The strong singlet-triplet mixing was confirmed by large Zeeman splitting of rotational lines in a high-resolution spectrum. For the S-1 (1)pi pi* state of aromatic hydrocarbons, the observed Zeeman splitting was found to be considerably small, and intersystem crossing was considered to be minor. These facts are in accordance with El-Sayed's rude, which states spin-orbit coupling is forbidden between the (1)pi pi* and (3)pi pi* states. The Zeeman splitting of several derivatives was also observed and the substitution effect on the intersystem crossing rate is discussed.
