“…However, rationalising experimental data on the prevalence of cyclisation, cleavage, or H-backtransfer from the 1,4-biradical requires dynamic modelling. 8,12,35,94,102 More theoretical studies of the NTII biradical 42 are required, and ab initio dynamics has only been performed for the NTII reaction in pentanal. 43,44 Furthermore, in order to assess the competition between NTII and other photolysis reactions on S 1 , T 1 , and S 0 kinetic modelling is required.…”
