摘要
The UV-induced photoreaction of 9-methyladenine was investigated by low-temperature matrix-isolation infrared (IR) spectroscopy with an aid of the density-functional-theory (OFF) calculation. Shorter-wavelength irradiation, lambda > 240 nm, caused the elimination of a hydrogen atom in the amino group, resulting in the production of two kinds of amino radicals: One immediately changed to an imine isomer by migration of the eliminated hydrogen atom to a nitrogen atom in the pyrimidine ring, while the other stayed unreacted in the matrix for a long time. The imine returned to the original reactant, 9-methyladenine, by longer-wavelength irradiation, lambda > 270 nm. The conformations of the unreacted radical and the imine were determined by comparison of the observed IR spectra with the spectral patterns obtained by DFT calculations. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V.
