Initial Excited-State Structural Dynamics of 5,6-Dimethyluracil from Resonance Raman Spectroscopy
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In order to understand the effect of methyl substitution patterns on the initial excited-state structural dynamics of uracil derivatives, we measured the resonance Raman spectra of 5,6-dimethyluracil (5,6-DMU). The results show that the resonance Raman spectrum is a combination of that of 5-methyl- and 6-methyluracil. The resonance Raman excitation profiles (RREPs) and absorption spectrum are simulated with a self-consistent, time-dependent formalism to yield the excited-state slopes and broadening parameters. The initial excited-state structural dynamics occur primarily along the C5═C6 stretching mode, as expected, but with lesser excited-state slopes along each mode compared to 5-methyluracil and 6-methyluracil. This study along with previous experiments with different uracil derivatives show that the presence and positions of the methyl groups seems to determine the partitioning of initial excited-state structural dynamics.

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.
