Furlan, H.A. Scheld, J.R. Huber Title: The two competitive photodissociation channels in cyano carbonyls (NCC(O)X, X = CH3, CH(CH3)2, C(CH3)3, OCH3) at 193 nm. A study by photofragment translational energy spectroscopy Journal/Source: J. Phys. Chem. A, 104, 1920-1929, (2000); DOI: 10.1021/jp9934836 Data: table, diagram Energy/Wavelength range: 190 - 420 nm Resolution: 0.2 nm Temperature: 298 K Temperature dependence: no Pressure/Concentration: Phase: pH: Comments: The photodissociation of a series of four cyano carbonyl compounds NCC(O)X with X = methyl, isopropyl, tert-butyl, and methoxy was studied after excitation at 193 nm using photofragment translational energy spectroscopy.
