Abstract
Abstract1,3‐Dithiole‐2‐thione (DTT) was synthesized and characterized using NMR, FT‐Raman, FT‐IR, UV spectroscopies. Resonance Raman spectra (RRs) were obtained with 341.5, 354.7 and 368.9 nm excitation wavelengths and density functional calculations were done to elucidate the electronic transitions and the RRs of DTT in cyclohexane solution. The RRs indicate that the Franck‐Condon region photodynamics is predominantly along the CS stretch+ H‐CC‐H scissor υ4, accompanied by the H‐CC‐H scissor υ3, S‐C‐S symmetric stretch υ6, CC stretch υ2, and overtone of the non‐totally symmetric SC‐S2 out‐of‐plane deformation 2υ11. The excited‐state dynamics and the force constant of CS stretch calculated by the RRs were discussed. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
