Absorption spectra of isotopically enriched 81Br16O and of normal BrO have been obtained by the flash photolysis of mixtures of bromine and ozonized oxygen. Rotational analyses are given for the 7–0, 12–0, 18–0, 19–0, 20–0, 21–0, 7–1, and 20–1 A2Π3/2–X2Π3/2 sub-bands of 81Br16O. The value for [Formula: see text] is found to be 722.1 ± 1.1 cm−1 in good agreement with the value calculated from microwave constants. Several additional bands have been found at the long wavelength end of the spectrum, necessitating a revision of the vibrational numbering scheme for both the emission and absorption bands. "Hot" bands up to ν″ = 6 have been observed in the absorption spectrum for the 2Π3/2 component of the ground state but no bands have yet been identified from the 2Π1/2 component.

The flash photolysis of diazopropyne (HC2∙CHN2) provides a particularly strong absorption spectrum of the free C3 radical. About 40 μs after the photolysis flash, the appearance of the [Formula: see text] (4 050 Å) system of C3 is similar to that obtained in the flash photolysis of diazomethane by Gausset, Herzberg, Lagerqvist, and Rosen, though much more intense. The intensity of the spectrum has permitted a study of the l-type doubling effect in the ground-state level 6ν2, of which the [Formula: see text] component has been found to lie at 458.2 cm−1. At shorter time delays [Formula: see text] the spectrum is complicated by bands arising from the levels ν1″ (1 224.5 cm−1) and 2ν1″ (2 436.0 cm−1).Below 3 700 Å the C3 spectrum is overlapped by absorption bands belonging to a new free radical, which has been identified from the intensity alternation in the rotational structure as the HCCCH radical. The vibrational structure of this system is exceptionally complex, and analysis has not been possible. The bands extend to about 3 100 Å, but are predissociated below 3 450 Å.

The 2 700 Å absorption bands found by Thrush in the flash photolysis of HN3 have been studied at high resolution. The rotational fine structure of the strongest band has been analyzed, and it has been shown that the bands arise from a [Formula: see text] transition of the N3 molecule. The bond distance in the ground state of N3 is found to be 1.181 Å.

Abstract. The UV-visible absorption spectrum of gaseous IONO2 has been measured over the wavelength range 245--415 nm using the technique of laser photolysis with time-resolved UV-visible absorption spectroscopy. IONO2 was produced in situ in the gas phase by laser flash photolysis of NO2/CF3I/N2 mixtures. Post flash spectra were deconvolved to remove contributions to the observed absorption from other reactant and product species. The resulting spectrum attributed to IONO2 consists of several overlapping broad absorption bands. Assuming a quantum yield of unity for IONO2 photolysis, model calculations show that during sunlit hours at noon, 53° N, the first order solar photolysis rate coefficient (J value) for IONO2 is 4.0 x 10-2 s-1.


A new system of absorption bands near 3600 Å has been observed during the flash photolysis of CF 3 NCF 2 and is ascribed to the free F 2 CN radical. The rotational analysis of the 0–0 band leads to the ground state molecular structure r CF = 1.310 Å (assumed), r CN = 1.265 ± 0.02 Å, FCF angle = 113.5 + 1°. The bands are shown to be type A bands arising from the transition 2 A 1 ← 2 B 2 , and the spectrum is compared with those of the iso-electronic molecules NO 3 and F 2 BO.
