Accurate full dimensional quantum dynamics calculations studying the photodissociation of CH(3)I@resorc[4]arene on an ab initio based potential energy surface (PES) model are reported. The converged 189D quantum dynamics calculations are facilitated by the multilayer multi-configurational time-dependent Hartree (ML-MCTDH) approach combined with the correlation discrete variable representation (CDVR) for the evaluation of potential energy matrix elements. The potential employed combines an established ab initio PES describing the photodissociation of methyl iodide in the A band with a harmonic description of the resorc[4]arene host and a bilinear modeling of the host-guest interaction. All potential parameters required in the description of the vibrations of the host molecule and the host-guest interaction are derived from ab initio calculations on the host-guest complex. Absorption spectra at 0 K and 300 K are calculated and the electronic population dynamics during the bond breaking process occurring in the first 20-30 fs after the photoexcitation is investigated. Weak but significant effects resulting from the host-guest interaction on this time scale are found and interpreted. The present study demonstrates that accurate fully quantum mechanical dynamics calculations can be preformed for systems consisting of more than 50 atoms using the ML-MCTDH/CDVR approach. Utilizing an efficient statistical approach for the construction of the ensemble of initial wavepackets, these calculations are not restricted to zero temperature but can also study the dynamics at 300 K.
