Abstract

We investigate the photochemistry and photodissociation dynamics of the linear C3H2 isomer propadienylidene by two-colour photofragment Doppler spectroscopy at excitation wavelengths between 260 and 230 nm, corresponding to excitation into the C1A1 state. Propadienylidene is generated by pyrolysis from IC3H2Br. Almost complete conversion of the precursor can only be achieved at high pyrolysis temperatures. Two reaction channels ...
