    There are many experiments which are related to intramolecular energy transfer. Initially, they involved primarily thermal unimolecular reactions and chemical activation. More recently, experiments which are more state-selective have also been performed in which one zeroth order mode (e.g., some bond or normal mode) has been excited. These experiments include infrared multiphoton absorption, reactions induced by excitation of high CH overtones, dissociation of vibrational state-excited van der Waals’ complexes, and fluorescence spectra from mode-selected vibrationally-excited substituted aromatic molecules
