Abstract
Unlike fluorinated benzenes with four or less fluorine atoms, pentafluorobenzene (PFB) and hexafluorobenzene (HFB) exhibit very small fluorescence yields and short fluorescence lifetimes. These emission anomalies suggest that the nature of the first excited singlet (S(1)) state may be different for the two classes of fluorobenzenes. Consistent with this conjecture, the time-dependent density-functional theory calculations yield S(1) state of pi pi(*) character for fluorinated benzenes with four or less F atoms, and S(1) state of pi sigma(*) character for PFB and HFB. The pi sigma(*) character of the S(1) state of PFB and HFB has been confirmed by laser-induced fluorescence, which reveal the presence of a new electronic transition to the red of the (1)pi pi(*) (L(b))<--S(0) transition, which can be identified with the predicted low-energy (1)pi sigma(*)<--S(0) absorption. The low fluorescence yields and the short fluorescence lifetimes of PFB and HFB are consistent with the small radiative decay rate of the (1)pi sigma(*) state and efficient S(1) (pi sigma(*))-->S(0) internal conversion between two electronic states of very different geometries.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
