Ab initio calculation of phosphosrecence of hetero[8]circulenes
The quantum chemical calculations of phosphorescence of hetero[8]circulenes with Si and Ge atoms were carried out using CC2 and TDDFT methods at the first time. According to the calculated results the less value of τphos of II (with Ge) is caused by two factors: almost 29 times larger the distortion of the main macrocycle II, and almost 4 times large value of the matrix element of the spin-orbit coupling interaction between T1 and S0 states due to the heavier Ge atom than Si. The CC2 calculated value τphos is agreed with the experimental measurements because the discrepancy is not exceeded 2 and 0.3 s for I (with Si) and II respectively, the TDDFT result is agreed in order of magnitude. The main intramolecular channel of T1 deactivation is the internal conversion between T1 and S0 states due to mixing of their wavefunctions by common spin-orbital and the nonadiabatic coupling interactions.
