چکیده

The vertical absorption spectrum and photodissociation mechanism of vinyl chloride (VC) were studied by using symmetry-adapted cluster configuration interaction theory. The important vertical pi --> pi* excitation was intensively examined with various basis sets up to aug-cc-pVTZ augmented with appropriate Rydberg functions. The excitation energy for pi --> pi* transition obtained in the present study, 6.96 eV, agrees well with the experimental value, 6.7-6.9 eV. Calculated excitation energies along with the oscillator strengths clarify that the main excitation in VC is the pi --> pi* excitation. Contrary to the earlier theoretical reports, the results obtained here support that the C-Cl bond dissociation takes place through the n(Cl-)sigma(C-Cl)* state.

Electronic excitation spectra of furan and pyrrole: Revisited by the symmetry adapted cluster–configuration interaction method

Electronic excitation spectra of furan and pyrrole are reinvestigated by the symmetry-adapted cluster configuration-interaction method. The 47 and 46 lowest singlet and triplet electronic states are computed for furan and pyrrole, respectively. Two series ~1a2 and 2b1! of low-lying Rydberg states and the valence p–p* excited states strongly influence each other in both furan and pyrrole. The pr...
