Impact of vibrational excitation on the kinetics of a nascent ketene

The formation and decay of a ketene intermediate photochemically formed from o-nitrobenzaldehyde has been studied by femtosecond UV/Vis and IR spectroscopy. The ketene is formed predominantly within a few 100 fs and to a minor extent within ∼200 ps via the recombination of a triplet phased bi-radical. In tetrahydrofuran solution the ketene intermediate is seen to form a secondary intermediate with biphasic kinetics. The first phase of this decay occurs within a few picoseconds. It can be attributed to the reaction of vibrationally excited ketenes. The second phase characterized by a time constant of 2 ns is due to the reaction of thermalized molecules. In 2-butanol solution the lifetime of the thermalized ketene is only ∼60 ps and the rapid and the slow phases of the decay start to merge.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
