Abstract

Coupling between C H and C O vibrational modes play an essential role on determination of biological structure and dynamics. However, due to the weakness of the C H absorption and strong absorption of the C O vibrational band make such experiments less straightforward than those with transitions of nearly the same strength. In this communication the characteristics of the C H and C O coupling has been studied using dual frequency two dimensional infrared spectroscopy. 2-Pyrrolidinone has been used as a model molecule of biological system. The coherent and incoherent couplings between C H and C O vibrational bands have been observed. The cross peaks dynamics have been discussed and time constant of the cross peak intensity has been calculated.
