Helical electronic transitions of spiroconjugated molecules

چکیده
The ?–?* transitions of disubstituted spiropentadiene become helical due to mixing its two perpendicular ?-systems. helicity is symmetry-protected and gives rise experimentally observable effects, such as optical activity.

Order-disorder Transitions in Structures Containing Helical Molecules
The most commonly considered types of disorder in a crystal containing long-&& molecules are those in which the individual chain molecules are either rotated about their long axes or else translated along the fibre axis. However, since many fibrous polymers are helical in structure, we should also expect the possibility of screw disorder; that is, a combination of the above two types. A disorde...
متن کاملUV resonance raman investigation of electronic transitions in alpha-helical and polyproline II-like conformations.
UV resonance Raman (UVRR) excitation profiles and Raman depolarization ratios were measured for a 21-residue predominantly alanine peptide, AAAAA(AAARA) 3A (AP), excited between 194 and 218 nm. Excitation within the pi-->pi* electronic transitions of the amide group results in UVRR spectra dominated by amide vibrations. The Raman cross sections and excitation profiles provide information about ...
متن کاملState transitions by molecules.
In our previous paper, we described a method by which a state machine is implemented by a single-stranded DNA molecule whose 3'-end sequence encodes the current state of the machine. Successive state transitions are performed in such a way that the current state is annealed onto an appropriate portion of DNA encoding the transition table of the state machine and the next state is copied to the ...
متن کاملProbing helical transitions in a DNA duplex.
The complex conformational change from B-DNA to Z-DNA requires inversion of helix-handedness. Multiple degrees of freedom are intricately coupled during this transition, and formulating an appropriate reaction coordinate that captures the underlying complexity would be problematic. In this contribution, we adopt an alternative approach, based on the potential energy landscape perspective, to co...
متن کاملElectronic transitions of ruthenium monoxide.
The electronic transition spectrum of ruthenium monoxide (RuO) molecule in the spectral region between 545 nm to 640 nm has been recorded and analyzed using laser ablation/reaction free-jet expansion and laser induced fluorescence spectroscopy. The RuO molecule was produced by reacting laser-ablated ruthenium atoms with N2O seeded in argon. Nine vibrational bands were recorded, and they are ide...
