Intramolecular hydrogen tunneling in 2-chloromalonaldehyde trapped in solid para-hydrogen
Literature Information
Michèle Chevalier, Justinas Ceponkus, Claudine Crépin
The internal dynamics of a 2-chloromalonaldehyde (2-ClMA) molecule, possessing a strong internal hydrogen bond (IHB), was examined by means of matrix isolation spectroscopy in a soft host: para-hydrogen (pH2). 2-ClMA is a chlorinated derivative of malonaldehyde (MA), a model molecule in hydrogen transfer studies, better suited to low temperature experiments than its parent molecule. The infrared absorption spectra of 2-ClMA isolated in pH2 exhibit temperature dependent structures which are explained as transitions occurring from split vibrational levels induced by hydrogen tunneling. The doublet components associated with higher and lower energy levels are changing reversibly with the increase/decrease of the matrix temperature. The ground state splitting is measured to be 7.9 ± 0.1 cm−1. The presence of oH2 impurities in the pH2 matrix close to the neighborhood of the 2-ClMA molecule is found to quench the H tunneling. The data provide a powerful insight into the dynamical picture of intramolecular hydrogen tunneling in a molecule embedded in a very weakly perturbing environment.

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.
