โœฆ Synopsis


In tetrahydrofuran, acetone, diethyl ether and dichloromethane, the strongest Raman line of bacteriochlorophyll a, to be ascribed to a ring-breathing mode, appeared at 1579, 1584, 1591 and 1596 cm-', respectively, in the T, state. No discrete shift of the particular Raman line, such as that used to discriminate the penta-and hexa-coordinated states in the So state, was found. Changing the amount of tetrahydrofuran in dichloromethane in a solvent mixture caused a continuous shift of the above coordination*marker line, but the frequenciesofother T, Raman lines (at 1712,1476, 1412 and 1328 cm-') remained unchanged. No solvent effect was found for T, (So) bacteriopheophytin a.

Resonance Raman spectra of the lowest excited triplet state of chlorophyll a are obtained in benzene and in methanol by pumping at 660 nm in the Q, band and pmbing at 460 nm which is close to the absorption maximum of the T, state. Tbe spectrum observed in polar methanol differs significantly from t
