Abstract

The adiabatic energies, vibrational frequencies, and geometries of the ground and excited electronic states of formylcarbene and the triplet electronic states of ketene are calculated employing the state-of-the art ab initio methods. With the help of these calculations, certain ultraviolet (UV) absorption bands observed in the flash photolysis of oxazole and iso-oxazole are assigned to formylcarbene and triplet ketene.
