| Abstract | H bond population dynamics are extricated with exceptional detail using ultrafast (<50 fs) IR multidimensional stimulated vibrational echo correlation spectroscopy with full phase information and frequency resolved IR pump-probe expts. performed on the hydroxyl stretch of MeOH-OD oligomers in CCl4. H bond breaking makes it possible to acquire data for times much greater than the hydroxyl stretch vibrational lifetime. The correlation spectra and detailed calcns. demonstrate that vibrational relaxation leads to H bond breaking for oligomers that have hydroxyl stretch frequencies on the low energy (red) side of the hydroxyl stretch spectrum, the spectral region that is assocd. with the strongest H bonds. Frequency resolved pump-probe data support the conclusions drawn from the correlation spectra. Using a global fit to the pump-probe spectra, in conjunction with assignments made possible through the correlation spectra, the residual ground state and photoproduct of H bond breaking were prepd. near their thermal equil. distribution. The spectrum of the H bond breaking photoproduct and the residual ground state approach the steady-state temp. difference spectrum on the tens of picoseconds time scale, indicating the system thermalizes on this time scale.
