How much time does it take for a wavepacket to roam on a multidimensional potential energy surface? This combined theoretical and pump-probe femtosecond time experiment on 2-hydroxypyridine proposes an answer. Bypassing the well-established transition state and conical intersection relaxation pathways, this molecular system undergoes relaxation into the S-1 excited state: the central ring is destabilized by the electronic excitation, within similar to 100 fs after absorption of the pump photon, then the H-atom bound to oxygen undergoes a roaming behavior when it couples to other degrees of freedom of the molecule. The timescale of the latter process is measured to be similar to 1.3 ps. Further evolution of the wavepacket is either an oscillation onto the S1 potential or a conversion into the triplet state for timescale larger than similar to 110 ps. Our work introduces a new tool for the understanding of time-resolved relaxation dynamics applied to large molecules through the roaming dynamics characterized by its strongly delocalized wavepacket on flat molecular potential energy surfaces.
