Unraveling the photochemical behaviour of the green fluorescent protein chromophore has lately attracted widespread attention among scientists. In this paper we present the study of the photochemical isomerization Z → E and the back reaction of the chromophore analog, 5-arylmethylene-2- thioxoimidazolidin-4-one. Experimental results are supported with ab initio calculations at the DFT, (B3LYP/6-31+g(d,p)), TD-DFT (B3LYP/6-311++g(3df,3pd)) and CASSCF levels. A first excitation to the S2 state, where the isomerization occurs, is proposed followed by two conical intersections to S1 and S0 respectively. Three different mechanisms were analyzed for thermal reversion, concluding that the preferred channel involves an intersystem crossing between the S0 and T1 states with the formation of a biradical.

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.
