The photophysical processes and photochemical reactions in the ultrafast time region of (8-bromo-7-hydroxyquinolin-2-yl)methyl acetate (BHQ-OAc) in acetonitrile and neutral aqueous solutions were investigated using quantum chemical calculations and femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy. After initial excitation into the π,π* excited state, BHQ-OAc undergoes an ultrafast intersystem crossing (ISC) into a π,π* excited triplet state on a timescale of 16 ps. The n,π* and π,π* excited singlet and triplet states involved in the photochemistry were identified by means of their characteristic excited state absorption (ESA) bands and from second order coupled-cluster (CC2) calculations. The high ISC rate of BHQ-OAc and related compounds is traced back to involvement of almost energetically degenerate n,π* excited states that enable efficient ISC that obeys El-Sayed's rules.

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.
