The title reaction has been studied in a crossed molecular beam apparatus. Both the product state distributions and the translational energy dependence of the reaction cross sections were measured under single collision conditions. Excellent agreement was found over a wide temperature range (26–3800 K) between rate constants deduced from the translational excitation function and recent thermal kinetic data. The rotational state distribution was found to be very cold compared to the reaction exothermicity, and could be described by a Boltzmann temperature of 110 K for all K-doublet levels. The vibronic state distribution was also found to be cold, with 70% of the products formed in the vibrational ground state. By comparing the molecular beam results for vibronic state distributions with those obtained from recent bulb experiments, it was conjectured that there appears to be a strong correlation between rotation in the reactants and bending excitation in the products.

Abstract Scattering of helium atoms by cyclopentane, pyrrolidine and tetrahydrofurane molecules was ob-served in crossed molecular beam experiments. The intensity of scattered helium atoms, depending on the scattering angle, was measured with high resolution, and the damping of the diffraction oscillations of the differential cross sections was used to extract elastic anisotropic interaction potentials for these molecules. The evaluation included a geometric transformation concerning the puckered states of the envelope and the twisted conformation of the molecules. The potentials were found to be rather similar.
