Comments: A pulsed molecular beam of thiophosgene was photodissociated at 248 nm. The detection of CSCl and Cl2 fragments 
formed under collision free conditions is evidence for two decomposition pathways: (a) CSCl2 --> CSCl+Cl (b) CSCl2 --> CS(X1Sigma)+Cl2. 
An estimate for the quantum yield for (a) is calculated to be 0.8±0.1.
