Mixed matrices of methane or deuterated methane and argon doped with m
ercury have been irradiated with a KrF laser at 249 nm. Methylmercury
hydride is formed by reaction of Hg excited to the P-3(1) state with C
H4 or CD4. The reaction products were identified by Fourier transform
infrared spectrometry.
