Gas phase infrared multiple-photon dissociation spectra of methanol, ethanol and propanol proton-bound dimers, protonated propanol and the propanol/water proton-bound dimer
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The infrared multiphoton dissociation (IRMPD) spectra of three homogenous proton-bound dimers are presented and the major features are assigned based on comparisons with the neutral alcohol and with density functional theory calculations. As well, the IRMPD spectra of protonated propanol and the propanol/water proton-bound dimer (or singly hydrated protonated propanol) are presented and analysed. Two primary IRMPD photoproducts were observed for each of the alcohol proton bound dimers and were found to vary with the frequency of the radiation impinging upon the ions. For example, when the proton-bound dimer absorbs weakly a larger amount of S(N)2 product, protonated ether and water, are observed. When the proton-bound dimer absorbs more strongly, an increase in the simple dissociation product, protonated alcohol and neutral alcohol, is observed. With the aid of RRKM calculations this frequency dependence of the branching ratio is explained by assuming that photon absorption is faster than dissociation for these species and that only a few photons extra are necessary to make the higher-energy dissociation channel (simple cleavage) competitive with the lower energy (S(N)2) reaction channel.

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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
