Investigation of the Effect of Reagent CN Rotational Excitation on the Dynamicsof the CN + O2 Reaction

摘要

The reaction of CN with O2 has been studied through a photolysis-probe laserexperiment in a cell at a total pressure of 70 mTorr. Rotationally hot CN reagent was prepared by 193 nm photolysis of BrCN. NCO(X(2)Pi) product in various vibronic levels was detected by laser fluorescence excitation in its A(2)Sigma(+)
