Abstract
The 266 nm photodissociation of gaseous C6H5NO has been studied by monitori ng the nascent NO (X(2)Pi upsilon " = 0-3) product using the single-photon laser-induced fluorescence technique. The rotational-state distributions of the nascent NO photofragment have been measured and can be characterized b y Bolzmann temperatures. The vibrational-state and Lambda -doublet populati ons were also determined. Energy disposal into the internal degrees of free dom of NO (X(2)Pi) photofragment is about 18% of the total available energy . Some planarity in the fragmentation process was observed.
