Abstract
The phenol-(NH3)(n=1,2,3) (S-1) lifetimes have been measured near their ban d origins by a picosecond pump/probe scheme. The very short lifetimes obser ved reveal that the excited clusters undergo a reactive process, namely the following dissociative hydrogen transfer reaction: PhOH*-(NH3)(n) --> PhO. + NH4(NH3)(n-1).
