Dehydrogenation and Other Non-radiative Relaxation Processes in Gas-Phase Metal−DNA Base Complexes
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Photoinduced dehydrogenations of gas-phase Al−guanine, Mn−guanine, and the Al-base pair adduct Al−guanine−cytosine have been observed. Upper and lower limits on the minimum photon energy required to effect the dehydrogenation have been determined for these species. Species were generated using a laser ablation source and were detected with laser photoionization/time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Only metalated species were observed to dehydrogenate, and the effect of metal on the photochemistry of guanine and cytosine has been investigated using density functional theory (DFT). Avoided crossings between the ground and first electronically excited states are features specific to the metalated species and are likely responsible for the metal-specific dehydrogenation observed. The rapid nonradiative relaxation believed to manifest the dehydrogenation is consistent with the dominance of multiphoton contributions to the mass spectral signals observed which also stems from rapid nonradiative relaxation. In this context, the photophysics of the gas-phase complexes is similar to that of solution-phase bases where nonradiative relaxation processes also dominate.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
