(Graph Presented) Intramolecular orbital alignment can be controlled by conformational tuning of the initial wavepacket location on the two-dimensional potential-energy surfaces of thiophenol (see picture; CI = conical intersection). Chemical substitution induces conformational preference, leading to a dramatic change of the branching ratio between X and A states of the phenylthiyl radical.
