A combined experimental and theoretical study on the excited-state behavior of the uracil analogues, 5-OH-Ura and 5-NH2-Ura is reported. Two-photon ionization and IR/UV double-resonant spectra show that there is only one tautomer present for each with an excited state lifetime of 1.8 ns for 5-OH-Ura and 12.0 ns for 5-NH2-Ura as determined from pump–probe experiments. The nature of the excited states of both species is investigated by means of multi-reference ab initio methods. Vertical excitation energies, excited state minima, minima on the crossing seam and reaction paths towards them are determined. Sizeable barriers on these paths are found that provide an explanation for the lifetimes of several nanoseconds observed in the experiment.

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.
