Abstract

1,3,5-Triazine molecules represent a class of molecules that may have been prebiotic information carriers in a primordial soup in early Earth and their excited state dynamics has received attention in recent years. In our previous study, one component with lifetime longer than 100 ps was discovered in 2-amino-1,3,5-trainzine (2-AT), but its nature has not been revealed. In this study, excited state dynamics of 2-AT is studied in different solvents by using femtosecond time-resolved transient absorption and fluorescence up-conversion spectroscopy. Interestingly, an equilibrium state consisting of the bright ππ∗ and dark nπ∗ states in 2-AT is directly observed in aqueous solution and its dynamics is solvent sensitive. The whole picture of the excited state deactivation mechanism of 2-AT is proposed based on our spectroscopy results.
