Ultrafast irreversible phototautomerization of o-nitrobenzaldehyde.
نویسندگان
چکیده
o-Nitrobenzaldehyde is photolabile because of an irreversible phototautomerization, whereas comparable aromatic compounds function as photoprotectors because the tautomerization is reversible. In this experimental and theoretical study we track down the cause of this difference to the electronic changes that occur during the tautomerization.

Irreversible phototautomerization of o-phthalaldehyde through electronic relocation.
The potential energy surface for the intramolecular excited state hydrogen transfer (IESHT) in ortho-phthalaldehyde (OPA), which generates an enol ketene, has been studied with ab initio calculations (MS-CASPT2//CASSCF). The goal of our study is to establish the mechanistic factors that make the primary phototautomerization step irreversible. Similar to what we recently described for ortho-nitr...
متن کاملA non-adiabatic quantum-classical dynamics study of the intramolecular excited state hydrogen transfer in ortho-nitrobenzaldehyde.
Ab initio surface-hopping dynamics calculations have been performed to simulate the intramolecular excited state hydrogen transfer dynamics of ortho-nitrobenzaldehyde (o-NBA) in the gas phase from the electronic S(1) excited state. Upon UV excitation, the hydrogen is transferred from the aldehyde substituent to the nitro group, generating o-nitrosobenzoic acid through a ketene intermediate. The...

Molecules of 2-nitrobenzaldehyde hydrazone, C7H7N3O2, where Z' = 2, are linked by two N-H...N hydrogen bonds into isolated dimers, whereas in the isomeric 3-nitrobenzaldehyde hydrazone, where Z' = 1, the molecules are linked by one N-H...O hydrogen bond and one N-H...N hydrogen bond into a three-dimensional framework structure.
متن کاملA consistent picture of the proton release mechanism of oNBA in water by ultrafast spectroscopy and ab initio molecular dynamics.
With a combination of transient pump-probe IR spectroscopy and ab initio molecular dynamics, the controversial pico- and nanosecond steps of the o-nitrobenzaldehyde (oNBA) photoreaction have been investigated in aqueous solution. In this way, the measured reaction kinetics have been complemented with an atomistic picture of the reactive events as obtained with unbiased simulations in explicit s...
