Introduction and Motivation  Cyclohexoxy radicals and its substitutes like methylcyclohexoxy (MCHO) are important reaction intermediates in combustion and atmospheric chemistry.  Analysis of the vibrational structures of nearly degenerate X̃ and à states of MCHOs helps understand the coupling between close-lying potential energy surfaces (PESs) including the pseudo-Jahn-Teller effect (pJTE).  The mechanism of interaction between these two close-lying states is of significant theoretical interests and can be used to benchmark quantum chemical calculations.  Experimentally obtained spectra are prerequisite of future kinetic studies.  Investigation of the intramolecular interactions and the methyl substitution effect on the vibrational structure will help understand chemical kinetics. 3

A 116, 3156−3162 (2012) Conformational Studies of MCHO Radicals  Among possible chair and twisted-boat conformers of MCHOs, only chair structures are likely to be present under jet-cooled conditions due to their lowest energy.  Theoretical studies suggest that, for 4-, 3- and 2- MCHOs, diequatorial conformers have the lowest energy.  For 1-MCHO, the chair-axial and chair-equatorial conformers, defined by the orientation of the oxygen atom, can co-exist in free jet expansion. 4-, 3- and 2-MCHO 1-MCHO chair- equatorial long boat twisted boat-a 1 boat-1 twisted boat-a 2 half chair chair- axial minimum -1 barrier -1 minimum -2 barrier -2 minimum -3 barrier -3 minimum -4 chair- equatorial long boat twisted boat-a 1 boat-1 twisted boat-a 2 half chair chair-axial

Quantum Chemical Calculations on MCHOs  The three lowest electronic states of 4-MCHO and 1-MCHO are X̃ 2 A″, Ã 2 A′ and B̃ 2 A′. 3-MCHO and 2-MCHO also have similar electronic configuration.  The B̃ 2 A′← X̃ 2 A″ electronic transitions corresponds to the promotion of one electron from the σ orbital of the C-O bond to the half-filled non-bonding orbital that is localized on the O atom.  On the basis of symmetry of electronic states, both B̃ 2 A′ → Ã 2 A′ and B̃ 2 A′ → X̃ 2 A″ electronic transitions are allowed.

Summary  DF spectra of MCHOs provide vibronic structures of the nearly degenerate X̃ and à states, especially the energy separation between the vibrational ground levels of these two states.  The DF spectra are dominated by- o C-O stretch progression when the origin and the CO-stretch bands of the B̃←X̃ LIF excitation spectra were pumped. o progressions of CO-stretch modes combined with the pumped vibrational mode when non-CO-stretch vibrational levels of the B̃ state were pumped.  The transition intensities can be explained on the basis of FCFs taking Duschinsky mixing into consideration.  Excited state vibrational population relaxation has been observed in the DF spectra of 3-MCHO.  Calculated FCFs well reproduce the DF spectrum of 4-MCHO but not as well for the other isomers. Future Work Future Work  DF spectra of 1-MCHO.  High resolution LIF spectroscopy with rotational resolution.  Ab initio calculations of X̃/à state PESs.  Theoretical investigation of pJTE in MCHOs and its effect on vibronic structure.
