Electronic Spectra of 2- and 3-Tolunitrile in the Gas Phase — •Felix Gmerek, Josefin Wilke, Martin Wilke, Benjamin Stuhlmann, and Michael Schmitt — Heinrich-Heine-Universität, Düsseldorf, Germany

The electronic structures of tolunitriles find considerable interest, because they are prototypes for small aromatic push-pull systems containing an electron pushing methyl-group and an electron pulling nitrile-group.

Therefore, we investigated the structure of 2- and 3-tolunitrile by combining the results of single vibronic level fluorescence (SVLF) spectroscopy[1] and rotationally resolved laser induced fluorescence (HRLIF) spectroscopy[2], which allows us to determine the structural changes upon electronic excitation, via a combined Franck-Condon/rotational constants fit with unique accuracy.

Additionally, the torsional barriers of the methyl groups, determined via SVLF and HRLIF spectroscopy, respectively, have been used as a probe for the structural changes upon electronic excitation for both molecules.
