1. The u+1 (B21) state is in some cases more completely denoted as C̃ B21 (u+1) (which is consistent with the alternative S3 label) although there is some inconsistency as a number of authors have used à B21 (u+1) or even refer simply to the à state when describing the 185-230 nm absorption band. This would seem to be incorrect since there are two well documented lower lying singlet absorption bands of C S2, in the 290-330 nm (Δu1) and 330-390 nm (u-1) regions [see J. W. Rabalais, Chem. Rev. (Washington, D.C.) 0009-2665 10.1021/cr60269a004 71, 73 (1971) for more information]. The C̃ label has also been used to refer to the upper (A21) Renner-Teller component derived from the Δu1 state in bent geometries [see Q. Zhang and P. H. Vaccaro, J. Phys. Chem. 99, 1799 (1995) for more details]. To avoid further confusion, and in keeping with the notation used in most other studies of the 185-230 nm absorption band, we shall omit this prefix altogether.
