Electron transfer in photoexcited pyrrole dimers
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Following on from previous experimental and theoretical work [Neville et al., Nat. Commun. 7, 11357 (2016)], we report the results of a combined electronic structure theory and quantum dynamics study of the excited state dynamics of the pyrrole dimer following excitation to its first two excited states. Employing an exciton-based analysis of the Ã(π3s/σ*) and B̃(π3s/3p/σ*) states, we identify an excited-state electron transfer pathway involving the coupling of the Ã(π3s/σ*) and B̃(π3s/3p/σ*) states and driven by N–H dissociation in the B̃(π3s/3p/σ*) state. This electron transfer mechanism is found to be mediated by vibronic coupling of the B̃ state, which has a mixed π3s/3p Rydberg character at the Franck-Condon point, to a high-lying charge transfer state of the πσ* character by the N–H stretch coordinate. Motivated by these results, quantum dynamics simulations of the excited-state dynamics of the pyrrole dimer are performed using the multiconfigurational time-dependent Hartree method and a newly developed model Hamiltonian. It is predicted that the newly identified electron transfer pathway will be open following excitation to both the Ã(π3s/σ*) and B̃(π3s/3p/σ*) states and may be the dominant relaxation pathway in the latter case.

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.
