Abstract

Low frequency vibrational modes (typically less than 80cm−1) are evident in the laser-induced fluorescence excitation and resolved emission spectra of several arylmethyl radicals. Based upon the analysis of the experimental results, the low frequency modes are attributed to the hindered twisting motions of the phenyl rings and/or the methyl group. Work is proceeding to obtain information about the potential surface relevant to ring twisting and methyl rotation
