Abstract Nonadiabatic photodissociation dynamics of thiophenol (PhSH) and deuterated thiophenol (PhSD) via the 1ππ* state was investigated by a reduced three-dimensional (3D) quantum model based on the associated 3D diabatic potential energy surfaces constructed at the explicitly correlated multireference configuration interaction (MRCI-F12) level with the cc-pVTZ-F12 basis. The lifetimes of the low-lying vibronic S1 states for PhSH and PhSD were calculated using a low-storage filter diagonalization method and in reasonably good agreement with the available experimental results. The nonadiabatic effect was further examined in the photodissociation process by comparing the results in diabatic and adiabatic models. It was found that the adiabatic lifetimes are about 2~4 times shorter than the exact ones in diabatic model for both PhSH and PhSD. More importantly, the exact ground wavefunction including geometric phase (GP) possesses a node along the C-C-S-H/C-C-S-D torsional coordinate, while the node is absent when GP is not included in adiabatic model. The node structure of the wavefunction is a hallmark of GP, which sheds light on the nonadiabatic photodissociation dynamics facilitated by the conical intersections.

1. Introduction Nonadiabatic dynamics facilitated by the conical intersections (CIs) has received increasing attentions, because of its important role for understanding the radiationless relaxation mechanisms in many heteroaromatic molecules, such as phenols, pyrroles, and indoles.1-13 The ultraviolet (UV) absorptions of the heteroaromatic molecules dominated by the S1←S0 transitions are the key in photoprotection for humans on the earth.14-15 It is well known that the first and second excited states (S1 and S2) of phenol are coupled in the Franck-Condon (FC) region by the S1/S2 CI,16-17 which is responsible for the 1πσ*-mediated photodissociation ascribed to the nature that the 1
ππ* state has the characteristic of the bound state and the 1πσ* is repulsive along the
O-H dissociation coordinate. The nonadiabatically predissociative nature of the 1ππ* state allows to determine its lifetime, which differs from the case of resonances in complex-forming reactions.18-19 Compared to phenol system, the characteristics of the excited electronic states of thiophenol are quite similar due to S and O atoms with identical number of valence electrons. There are multi-states coupled in the dissociation pathways to the products of H and thiophenoxyl radicals. Apart from the S1/S2 CI in FC region, there is another CI formed between the 1πσ* state and the ground state 1ππ at longer S-H distance (see Fig. 1). It is clarified throughout this paper that 1ππ, 1ππ*, and 1πσ* denote the diabatic states, and S0, S1, and S2 are for the adiabatic labels. There have been many experimental studies on the photodissociation dynamics of thiophenol (PhSH) and deuterated thiophenol (PhSD), including the low bands of the 3

absorption spectra,20-21 lifetimes of the S1 vibronic states,20-22 and the product branching ratios (X/A) between the ground and first electronic excited states of the C6H5S radical.21 Particularly, the kinetic energy distributions for the ground and excited states of the products were measured at several wavelengths as well,17, 20, 23 and the dominant product vibrational states in the distributions were found to be an odd number of quanta in aʹʹ C-C twist mode v16a.17 This mode specificity in the product state distributions were attributed to the geometric phase (GP) effect in the nonadiabatic photodissociation facilitated by the CIs.24 The GP is associated with the sign change (eiπ = -1) of the electronic wavefunction when the system encircles the CI in a close loop, which makes the wavefunction double-valued.25-28 The recent theoretical study demonstrated that the size of the nonadiabatic effect in the tunneling-facilitated photodissociation of phenol (S1) was extremely large, the adiabatic predicted lifetimes were about two orders of magnitude shorter than the exact ones.29 More importantly, the adiabatic wavefunctions without GP have been shown to be significantly different from the exact wavefunctions (implicitly including GP),29-32 which suggested that the neglect of GP would lead to incorrect results in describing the dynamics near the CIs. Compared to phenol, the lifetimes of the S1(1ππ*) state of thiophenol were found to be shorter and in femtosecond by several experimental groups.20-22 As discussed above, the nonadiabatic effect had been found to have significant impact on the lifetimes of phenol (S1), but for the nonadiabatic photodissociation of thiophenol S1 state, the nonadiabatic effect is still unclear. The size of the nonadiabatic effect in the photodissociation dynamics can be taken into 4

account by comparing the results in diabatic (exact) and adiabatic (on a single surface) models. The adiabatic treatment on a single surface ignores the couplings with other states and the derivative couplings (including GP and diagonal Born-Oppenheimer corrections33). It should be noted that the GP effect is in quantum community and thus cannot be treated by classical approach. The diabatic potential energy surfaces (PESs) are the cornerstone in nonadiabatic quantum dynamical calculations, a deep understanding of the photodissociation dynamics can be achieved by the state-to-state quantum dynamical calculations on the available diabatic PES, such as in the cases of H2O and NH3.34-47 It is still a challenging to construct the full dimensional diabatic PESs for polyatomic systems. In the past few years, the full dimensional diabatic PESs of phenol have been constructed based on the ab initio energy gradients and derivative couplings.48-50 While for the thiophenol, there were only two-dimensional (2D) diabatic PESs available

This paper is organized as follows, section 2 presents the description of PESs and the wave packet propagation method. Results and discussions are given in section 3, and a brief summary is presented in section 4. 2. Theory In order to investigate the photodissociation dynamics of thiophenol, the adiabatic PESs are taken from our recent work,53 and the construction of the diabatic PESs were achieved by the linear-vibronic coupling method.54-55 The reduced 3D PESs include three degrees of freedom, S-H stretch, C-S-H bend, and C-C-S-H torsion, in which the CIs are one-dimensional (1D). As shown in Fig. 2, the energy of the CI seam is sensitively dependent on the C-S-H bending coordinate. At the planar geometry (φ=0), the 1ππ, 1ππ*, and 1πσ* states are of Aʹ, Aʹ, and Aʹʹ symmetries, respectively, whereas at φ=90 deg, the states have Aʹ, Aʹʹ, and Aʹ symmetries, respectively. In this work, in order to constrain the correct symmetry changes for the C-C-S-H torsional angle varying from 0 to 90 deg, we instead used the expressions for the non-diagonal elements,

and

(2) in which the symbols 1, 2, and 3 denote the 1ππ, 1πσ*, and 1ππ* states, respectively. It is clear that W12 and W23 in Eqs. (1) and (2) satisfy the linear-vibronic coupling 6

It should be noted that the new treatment for the non-diagonal elements in diabatic PESs would not qualitatively change the photodissociation dynamics near the FC region, as discussed below.

which can be readily estimated. To avoid reflection, the damping functions (D) were used at the edge of the radial grids. For the S1 vibronic resonances, we have also determined their complex energies (E-iГ/2) using a low-storage filter diagonalization method.60 The Chebyshev correlation function was used to build an energy-localized Hamiltonian matrix, from which the complex energy of the resonance is obtained by diagonalization. The numerical parameters used in wave packet calculations are listed in Table 1.

3. Results and discussions Table 2 lists the energy levels of S1 vibronic states of thiophenol (PhSH) and deuterated thiophenol (PhSD) calculated on the new diabatic PESs. In particular, the calculated vibrational frequency for the C-S-D bend state is 41015.8-40418.5=597.3 cm-1, which is close to the experimental value (608 cm-1)21 and that on our previous PES.53 It can be readily seen that the energies of PhSD vibronic states are lower than those of the PhSH ones, due to the isotope effect. The comparison between diabatic and adiabatic energies is discussed below. Due to the nonadiabatic coupling between the bound state 1ππ* and repulsive state πσ*, the S1 state is non-stable and has a lifetime in femtosecond range.20-22 This lifetime is shorter than that of phenol, due apparently to the energy barrier caused by the S1/S2 CI much lower than that of the phenol PESs. Table 3 lists the full-width at half maximum (FWHM) and lifetimes of three low-lying vibronic states of S1 state for PhSD and PhSH along with the available experimental data21 for comparison. It is clear that the lifetimes are mode specific and isotope dependent, which is consistent with previous quantum dynamical calculations in phenol.

The lifetimes of
these low-lying vibronic states are ranging from 10-40 fs, which is consistent with the observed lifetime in femtosecond range for S1 state in experiment. 20-22 In particular, it can be readily seen that the predicted widths of the ground vibronic state 00 of PhSD and PhSH are 143.9 and 186.7 cm-1, respectively, which are in good agreement with the experimental data (190 and 195 cm-1). On the other hand, the lifetimes of PhSD vibronic states were found to slightly (3.5 with R − Rend =1, otherwise Chebyshev steps: 10,000
