Abstract
Selective control of the rate and outcome of chemical events, based on molecular-level manipulations, is a major goal in chemical physics. Laser assisted chemistry is one area which has offered such hope [1]. Although “surface-assisted chemistry” is certainly capable of statistically controlling rates and outcomes [2], it is only recently that bond selectivity has been considered within the context of surface dynamics [3]. The physical basis for many proposed scenarios in selectivity can be summarized as follows. At some time t = 0, the molecular system is placed in an initially prepared, non-stationary state (say by electronnic excitation) and is then allowed to time-evolve.
