Abstract
We investigate the applicability of time-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy to excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) and internal conversion dynamics in the model system o-hydroxybenzaldehyde (OHBA) and related compounds. Photoelectron spectra of both the excited state enol and keto tautomers were obtained as a function of pump laser wavelength and pump-probe time delay. The ESIPT was found to occur in less than 50 fs over the whole absorption range of the S1(ππ*) state for both OHBA and its monodeuterated analog, suggestive of a small or nonexistent barrier. The subsequent keto internal conversion rate in OHBA varies from 0.63 to 0.17 ps−1 over the S1(ππ*) absorption band and the OD-deuterated analog shows no significant isotope effect. Based upon ab initio calculations and comparison with the two-ring analog, 1-hydroxy-2-acetonaphthone (HAN), we suggest that the internal conversion dynamics in OHBA is influenced by interactions with a close-lying nπ* state.

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
