Question 3

and phosphorence (p = 580 nm) of pyrene, 1-chloropyrene and 1-bromopyrene are given in the
table below, as measured at room temperature (RT) and at 77 K in a frozen ethanol glass.

(a) Construct a Jablonski diagram for pyrene (X = H) at 77K.
(b) Pyrene (X = H) has an absorbance maximum, Amax, at 330 nm and a fluorescence
maximum, 11, at 370 nm. Why does this difference in wavelengths occur?
(c) Explain why the lifetime for phosphorescence is longer than that for fluorescence.
(d) Why does the fluorescence quantum yield increase with decreasing temperature?
(e) Explain the trend in phosphorescence quantum yield as X is varied.
Question 4
The photoisomerization of alkenes is a photochemical transformation between the E- and
Z-stereoisomers. The irradiation of the E-isomer (shown below) with radiation at 340 nm gives an
E:Z ratio of 5:95. Some relevant information for each compound is shown in the table below.

(a) The reaction proceeds through an excited state. Explain the nature of this excited state, and
explain how it allows formation of the E- and Z-isomers. Explain why this isomerisation is
unlikely to occur thermally.
(b) The product of the equilibrium shown above gives a final ratio with substantially more of one
isomer. Explain why this occurs.
(c) Explain why the starting concentration of isomers does not affect the final ratio after
irradiation.
(d) If the irradiating wavelength used was changed to 290 nm and you started with Z- rather
than E-isomer, use the data in the table above to…

forms.
(c) Explain why each reaction gives the particular E:Z ratio that it does, and why it is considered
photostationary.
(d) Explain the role of the sensitizer, riboflavin, and why it is a requirement for this reaction.
(e) Explain why the irradiation of both the E- and Z-isomers in the presence of riboflavin gives the
