Low-energy electrons (LEEs) interact with a DNA model system to create a variety of excited states. In the gas phase, dissociative (sigma*) states are accessible by LEEs with energy <4 eV (see picture) and cause facile strand breaks through a dissociative electron attachment mechanism. However, under solvation these dissociative (sigma*) states are blue-shifted and are less accessible to LEEs.
低能电子(LEEs)与DNA模型系统相互作用以产生多种激发态。在气相中,能量<4 eV的低能电子可使离解(σ*)态达到(见图),并通过离解电子附着机制导致链的轻易断裂。然而,在溶剂化作用下,这些离解(σ*)态会发生蓝移,低能电子较难达到这些状态。
