✦ Synopsis


The low-energy S 1 → S n electronic transitions of 4,4 -bipyridine (44BPY) and the related resonance Raman intensities were analysed by ab initio calculation using the MCSCF method. This calculation is based on the previously optimized S 1 state geometry of 44BPY at the CIS level. The results are discussed in the light of experimental picosecond time-resolved Raman measurements probed in resonance with two different S 1 → S n transitions and lead to a better insight in the electronic and structural properties of the 44BPY S 1 state. Although the calculated spectra are only in partial agreement with the measured intensities, the most characteristic resonance enhancement effects are correctly predicted. The asymmetric characteristic of the S 1 structure proposed previously is confirmed on this basis. A comparison of these resonance Raman effects with those characterizing two photoreduced transient radical species of 44BPY is also discussed.
