Measurements of the build-up of triplet-triplet absorption at 5300 A have been made during and subsequent to the excitation of benzophenone by 5 psec pulses of 3545 A radiation (frequency tripled Nd\*: glass fundamental). The data were fitted to a simple model that included the finite gaussian pulse

โฆ Synopsis
Transient resonance Raman spectra of T, benzophenone (BP) and its cal-bonyl-'KO-substltuted analogue were measured with 355 nm excitation which is in rcsonancc with a triplet-triplet (T,,.+T,) transition in the ultraviolet. The intensity of the CO stretch band was greatly enhanced under this resonance condition. Reliable values of the T, CO stretching frequency were obtained including the solvent shifts. It is concluded that the solvent dependence of the photochemical reactivity of BP is not primarily due to the solvent-induced structural changes in the T, state. The character ofthe two chfferent T-T transltions (T,,-T, and T,, +T, ) is discussed in relation to the observed Raman spectral changes with different resonance conditions.

Time-resolved resonance Raman spectra were observed with the pump/probe technique using two 7 ns pulsed lasers for octaethylporphinato Cu(II) [(OEP)Cu] and its isotopomers (OEP-meso-d 4 and OEP-lSN) in the lowest excited triplet state. Raman bands were assigned on the basis of depolarization ratios
The resonance Raman spectrum of tetramethylbutadiene in its lowest excited triplet state, with a reported lifetime of 80 ns, is presented. The triplet state was produced by laser flash photolysis using acetone as sensitizer in acetonitrile.
The emission and excitation spectra at 1.4 K of solid neat CrOrClr, Cr02C12 in Ccl, and Cr02C12 in SnCI, are reported and analyzed. The emission in the three systems is assigned as phosphorescence from the CrOrClr moiety based on the vibronic analyses, measured lifetimes and ODMR activity.
