Abstract

We apply interchangeable vibrational antennas (OH or NH2 group) to achieve unprecedented conformational control over the heavy aldehyde fragment in 2-formyl-2H-azirine. The two aldehyde conformers were manipulated bi-directionally, using selective vibrational excitation with narrowband near-infrared (NIR) light tuned at the wavenumbers corresponding to OH and NH2 stretching overtones and combination modes.
