Core edge spectroscopy methods are versatile tools for investigating a wide variety of materials. They can be used to probe the electronic states of materials in bulk solids, on surfaces, or in the gas phase. This family of methods involves promoting an inner shell (core) electron to an excited state and recording either the primary excitation or secondary decay of the excited state. The techniques are complimentary and have different strengths and limitations for studying challenging aspects of materials. The need to identify components in polymers or polymer blends at high spatial resolution has driven development, application, and integration of results from several of these methods.

The condensed-phase excited-state reaction dynamics of chlorine dioxide are investigated using resonance Raman intensity analysis. Absolute Raman intensities are measured on resonance with the 2B2–2A2 electronic transition and used to establish the excited-state structural evolution which occurs on the 2A2 surface following photoexcitation. Analysis of the intensities demonstrates that excited-state relaxation occurs along all three normal coordinates; however, only modest evolution is observed along the asymmetric stretch. This limited relaxation stands in contrast to the extensive motion along this coordinate in the gas phase. It is proposed that the initial excited-state structural relaxation serves to define the symmetry of the reaction coordinate and thus the mechanism of Cl production following photolysis of OClO.

Abstract The conjugative interaction of the C=N bond with the cyclopropylring is studied using UV-spectrophotometric technique. The observed small bathochromic shift in the n-n* bands, relative to the spectra of similar compounds but with no cyclopropylring, is attributed to the interaction of the internal Walsh MO with the nonbonded MO of the Nitrogen atom (Zlint-n interaction) in the bisected conformation of the molecule. The observed bathochromic shifts of the 71-71* bands are explained in terms of the A-n interaction. The gas phase spectra of the azomethine derivatives show vibronic structuring of the band which when analyzed yeld wave number differences be­ tween the successive vibronic peaks, of the magnitude 720—860 cm-1. They are attributed to to the wave number differences between the successive C—N=C deformed ion levels in the excited state.
