چکیده
A sophisticated adiabatic ground electronic state potential energy surface for a pure nitrogen ring !cyclic-N3) molecule is constructed based on extensive high-level ab initio calculations and accurate three-dimensional spline representation. Most of the important features of the potential energy surface are presented using various reduced dimensionality slices in internal hyperspherical coordinates as well as full dimensional isoenergy surfaces. Very significant geometric phase effects are predicted in the spectra of rotational-vibrational states of cyclic-N3 . © 2004 American Institute of Physics. #DOI: 10.1063/1.1780158$

High-level ab initio studies of unimolecular dissociation of the ground-state N3 radical.
A comprehensive study of the unimolecular dissociation of the N(3) radical on the ground doublet and excited quartet potential energy surfaces has been carried out with multireference single and double excitation configuration interaction and second-order multireference perturbation methods. Two forms of the N(3) radical have been located in the linear and cyclic region of the lowest doublet po...
متن کاملAccurate first-derivative nonadiabatic couplings for the H3 system
A conical intersection exists between the ground ~1 2 A8) and the first-excited ~2 A8) electronic potential energy surfaces ~PESs! of the H3 system for C3v geometries. This intersection induces a geometric phase effect, an important factor in accurate quantum mechanical reactive scattering calculations, which at low energies can be performed using the ground PES only, together with appropriate ...
متن کاملEmpirical Potential Energy Curve for the Ground State of CaH from a Multi-isotopologue Direct Potential Fit Analysis
Vibration-rotation and pure rotational data in the X2Σ+ ground state and electronic data from the A2Π – X2Σ+ and B2Σ+ − X2Σ+ transitions of CaH and CaD were used in the quantum-mechanical direct-potential-fit (DPF) analysis to determine an analytic potential energy function for the X2Σ+ ground state of CaH, and a radial correction function for the CaD isotopologue. The potential energy function...
متن کاملState-selective predissociation dynamics of methylamines: the vibronic and HD effects on the conical intersection dynamics.
The photodissociation dynamics of methylamines (CH(3)NH(2) and CD(3)ND(2)) on the first electronically excited state has been investigated using the velocity map ion imaging technique probing the H or D fragment. Two distinct velocity components are found in the H(D) translational energy distribution, implying the existence of two different reaction pathways for the bond dissociation. The high ...
متن کاملQuantum chemical investigation of the electronic spectra of the keto, enol, and keto-imine tautomers of cytosine.
The low-lying excited singlet states of the keto, enol, and keto-imine tautomers of cytosine have been investigated employing a combined density functional/multireference configuration interaction (DFT/MRCI) method. Unconstrained geometry optimizations have yielded out-of-plain distorted structures of the pi --> pi and n --> pi excited states of all cytosine forms. For the keto tautomer, the DF...
