We have used time-resolved step-scan FTIR spectroscopy to investigate the process of triplet formation in the peridinin–chlorophyll-a–protein (PCP) at 100 K. Results have led to the identification of possible marker bands for peridinin (Per) and 3Per. Band assignment has been carried out performing a DFT investigation on Per, 3Per and on model molecules. The main spectral feature is a couple of bands at 1746 (negative) and 1719 (positive) cm–1. The assignment of these two bands to the lactonic C═O of Per in (respectively) its fundamental S0 and triplet T1 state is based on: (1) comparison with FTIR spectra of isolated Per in literature; (2) good agreement with DFT calculations for Per and 3Per; (3) the downshift of the band upon triplet formation as predicted by DFT calculations in Per and similar lactonic systems; (4) the kinetic of band disappearance, in agreement with literature data. Another possible band for Per in its fundamental state has been identified at 1523 cm–1.
