30. Changes of OH bending absorption upon weakening of hydrogen bonds are minor (cf. Bertie, J. E.; Ahmed, M. K.; Eysel, H. H. J. Phys. Chem. 1989, 93, 2210). Thus, sub-100 fs kinetics are absent in the ultrafast OH bending response (Figure 4a).
31. The final temperature rise is proportional to the pump energy deposited in the sample and reaches values of 1-5 K for our excitation conditions. The absence of local overheating is evident from the monotonous increase of the frequency shifts.
32. The sequential energy transfer to librations rules out other schemes proposed for OH stretching relaxation, in particular the generation of two OH bending quanta on different molecules (Lindner, J.; et al. Chem. Phys. Lett. 2006, 421, 329). An L2 kinetics calculated for the latter case (Figure 3d) is in clear disagreement with the data.
