Abstract

The photodissociation mechanism of a number of transition metal carbonyl hydrides (HCo(CO) 4, H 2Fe(CO) 4, HM(CO) 3(H-DAB) with M=Mn, Re and H-DAB=1,4-diaza-1,3-butadiene) is followed in a time-dependent approach. The time scale of the primary reactions, the absorption spectra and the branching ratio of the concurrent dissociation pathways are deduced from wave packet propagations performed on two-dimensional ab initio potential energy surfaces connecting the electronic ground and excited states of the irradiated molecule to those of the primary products.
