Studies of the inertial component of polar solvation dynamics

چکیده
We describe results of computer simulations and sub-picosecond time-resolved fluorescence experiments on the solvation dynamics of 1-aminonapthalene and coumarin 153 in acetonitrile and methanol. Both the simulations and experiments point to the importance of fast, inertial components in the solvation response in these systems. Where direct comparisons between the experiment and simulation are possible, the agreement is found to be quite good. We also consider application of a simple theory for the solvation response in order to make some predictions about the likely importance of the inertial component in a variety of common solvents.

Three-Pulse Echo Peak Shift Studies of Polar Solvation Dynamics
The three-pulse photon echo peak shift technique is used to study room temperature solvation dynamics in acetonitrile, benzonitrile, methanol, ethanol, ethylene glycol, and chloroform utilizing the tricarbocyanine dye, IR144 as the probe molecule. In all cases, an ultrafast component, ascribed to inertial solvent motion, was evident after the very rapid dephasing of the intramolecular vibration...
متن کاملThree pulse photon echo studies of nondipolar solvation: Comparison with a viscoelastic model
Three pulse stimulated photon echo peak shift ͑3PEPS͒ measurements were used to probe the solvation of a quadrupolar solute in three room temperature nondipolar solvents; benzene, CCl 4 , and CS 2 , and the results were compared with those for two polar solvents, methanol and acetonitrile, and one weakly polar solvent, toluene. Our data reveal three distinct solvent dynamical time scales; a sub-1...
