Abstract

The mechanism for the photochemical isomerization reaction is investigated theoretically using a model system of a five-membered-ring silene and the CAS(8,8)/6-311G(d) and MP2-CAS-(8,8)/6-311++G(3df,3pd)//CAS(8,8)/6-311G(d) methods. These model investigations indicate that the preferred reaction route for a five-membered-ring silene, which leads to the photorearrangement product, is as follows: reactant → Franck–Condon region → conical intersection→ photoproduct. In other words, the direct mechanism is a one-step process that has no barrier. These theoretical results agree with the available experimental observations.

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.
