摘要
运用含时密度泛函理论(TD-DFT)方法和以环己烷为溶剂的可极化连续模型(PCM),研究了2-[2-(1 H-pyrrol-2-yl)-cyclopent-1-enyl]-pyridine(7-HB)发生激发态分子内质子转移(ESIPT)的反应机制.结果表明,7-HB分子被光激发到Franck-Condon区域后,在第一光学亮态(S_1)上会发生一个超快的从Normal(N)式到Tautomer(T)式的质子转移反应,其反应的能垒仅有0.05eV.此外,在相同计算水平下,还研究了7-HB分子的吸收和发射光谱,所得结果与实验数据吻合得很好.
Time-dependent density functional theory(TDDFT)approaching along with the polarizable continuum model(PCM)using cyclohexane as a solvent was used to explore the excited-state intramolecular proton transfer(ESIPT)reaction of 2-[2-(1 H-pyrrol-2-yl)-cyclopent-1-enyl]-pyridine(7-HB).The result indicated that while the 7-HB molecule was photoexcited into the Franck-Condon region,it could undergo an ultrafast proton transfer reaction from the normal(N)to tautomer(T)forms in the optically bright first excited singlet state(S_1),with a negligible barrier of 0.05 eV.In addition,the absorption and emission spectra of 7-HB were also calculated at the same theoretical level.It was found that our theoretical predictions were in good agreement with the available experimental findings.
