Photodissociation dynamics of allyl bromide at 234, 265, and 267 nm

The photodissociation dynamics of allyl bromide was investigated at 234, 265, and 267 nm. A two-dimensional photofragment ion velocity imaging technique coupled with a [2+1] resonance-enhanced multiphoton ionization scheme was utilized to obtain the angular and translational energy distributions of the nascent Br* (2P1/2) and Br (2P3/2) atoms. The Br fragments show a bimodal translational energy distribution, while the Br* fragments reveal one translational energy distribution. The vertical excited energies and the mixed electronic character of excited states were calculated at ab initio configuration interaction method. It is presumed that the high kinetic energy bromine atoms are attributed to the predissociation from 1(pipi*) or 1(pisigma*) state to the repulsive 1(nsigma*) state, and to the direct dissociation from 3(nsigma*) and 3(pisigma*) states, while the low kinetic energy bromine atoms stem from internal conversion from the lowest 3(pipi*) state to 3(pisigma*) state.     

Photodissociation dynamics of CBr4 at 267 nm by means of ion velocity imaging

The photodissociation dynamics of CBr4 at 267 nm has been studied using time of flight (TOF) mass spectrometry and ion velocity imaging techniques. The photochemical products are detected with resonance enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI) as well as single-photon vacuum ultraviolet ionization at 118 nm. REMPI at 266.65 and 266.71 nm was used to detect the ground Br(2P32) and spin-orbit excited Br(2P12) atoms, respectively. The translational energy and angular distributions are consistent with direct dissociation from an excited triplet state and indirect dissociation from high vibrational levels on the singlet ground state surface. Br2+ ions are also observed in the TOF spectra with a focused 267 nm laser. The counter fragment, CBr2+, is observed when this photolysis laser is unfocused, and photons at 118 nm are used to ionize the radical products. The translational energy distributions of the CBr2+ and Br2+ products can be momentum matched, which indicates that molecular Br2 elimination is one of the primary dissociation channels.     

Photodissociation of cyclobutyl bromide at 234 nm studied using velocity map imaging

This study investigates the 234 nm photodissociation dynamics of cyclobutyl bromide using a two-dimensional photofragment velocity imaging technique. The spin-orbit ground- and excited-state Br(2P) atoms are state-selectively detected via [2+1] resonance enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI), whereas the cyclobutyl radicals are ionized using 157 nm laser light. The Br(2P(3/2)) and the Br(2P(1/2)) atoms and their c-C4H7 radical cofragments evidence a single-peaked, Gaussian-shaped translational energy distribution ranging from approximately 14 to approximately 39 kcal/mol and angular distributions with significant parallel character. The Br(2P(1/2))/ Br(2P(3/2)) spin-orbit branching ratio is determined to be 0.11 +/- 0.07 by momentum match between the Br(2P) photofragments and the recoiling c-C4H7 fragments, assuming a uniform photoionization probability of the c-C4H7 radicals with an internal energy range of 10-35 kcal/mol. The REMPI line strength ratio for the detection of Br(2P(3/2)) and Br(2P(1/2)) atoms at 233.681 and 234.021 nm, respectively, is therefore derived to be 0.10 +/- 0.07. The measured recoil kinetic energies of the c-C4H7 radicals, and the resulting distribution of internal energies, indicates some of the radicals are formed with total internal energies above the barrier to isomerization and subsequent dissociation, but our analysis indicates they may be stable due to the substantial fraction of the internal energy which is partitioned to rotational energy of the radicals.     

Photodissociation study of ethyl bromide in the ultraviolet range by the ion-velocity imaging technique.

The photodissociation of ethyl bromide has been studied in the wavelength range of 231-267 nm by means of the ion velocity imaging technique coupled with a [2+1] resonance-enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI) scheme. The velocity distributions for the Br ((2)P(1/2)) (denoted Br*) and Br ((2)P(3/2)) (denoted Br) fragments are determined, and each can be well-fitted by a narrow single-peaked Gaussian curve, which suggests that the bromine fragments are generated as a result of direct dissociation via repulsive potential-energy surfaces (PES). The recoil anisotropy results show that beta(Br) and beta(Br*) decrease with the wavelength, and the angular distributions of Br* suggest a typical parallel transition. The product relative quantum yields at two different wavelengths are Phi(234nm)(Br*)=0.17 and Phi(267nm)(Br*)=0.31. The relative fractions of each potential surface for the bromine fragments' production at 234 and 267 nm reveal the existence of a curve crossing between the (3)Q(0) and (1)Q(1) potential surfaces, and the probability of curve crossing decreases with the laser wavelength. The symmetry reduction of C(2)H(5)Br from C(3v) to C(s) invokes a nonadiabatic coupling between the (3)Q(0) and (1)Q(1) states, and with higher energy photons, the probability that crossing will take place increases.     

Multiphoton dissociative ionization of tert-pentyl bromide near 265 nm

We report on the photodissociation dynamics of tert-pentyl bromide near 265 nm investigated by time-sliced velocity map imaging. The speed and angular distributions have been analyzed for both the ground-state Br((2)P(3∕2)) atom (denoted Br) and the spin-orbit excited-state Br((2)P(1∕2)) atom (denoted Br*). The speed distributions of Br and Br* atoms are all found to consist of three Gaussian components, which correlate to three independent dissociation pathways on the excited potential energy surfaces: (1) the high translational energy (E(T)) component from the prompt dissociation along the C-Br stretching mode, (2) the middle E(T) component from the repulsive mode along the C-Br stretching coupled with some bending motions, and (3) the low E(T) component from the repulsive mode along the C-Br stretching coupled with more bending motions. More interestingly, we have also observed the tert-C(5)H(11)(+) ions in 263-267 nm. The near-zero kinetic energy distributions extracted from the three tert-C(5)H(11)(+) images near 265 nm show the typical characteristics that are attributable to multiphoton dissociative ionization, suggesting the existence of a neutral superexcited state of the parent tert-pentyl bromide molecule. The contribution of bromine atoms formed in this dissociative ionization channel adds in the total relative distribution of low E(T) component in the Br*(Br) formation channel, which reasonably explains the abnormal distributions observed in between the middle and low E(T) components in the Br*(Br) formation channel.     

Photodissociation dynamics of CH(2)Br(2) near 234 and 267 nm

The photodissociation dynamics of CH(2)Br(2) was investigated near 234 and 267 nm. A two-dimensional photofragment ion velocity imaging technique coupled with a [2+1] resonance-enhanced multiphoton (REMPI) ionization scheme was utilized to obtain the angular and translational energy distributions of the nascent Br ((2)P(3/2)) and Br* ((2)P(1/2)) atoms. The obtained translational energy distributions of Br and Br* are found consist of two components which should be come from the radical channel and secondary dissociation process, respectively. It is suggested that the symmetry reduction from C(2v) to C(s) during photodissociation invokes a non-adiabatic coupling between the 2B(1) and A(1) states. Consequently, the higher internal energy distribution of Br channel than Br* formation channel and the broader translational energy distribution of the former are presumed correlate with a variety of vibrational excitation disposal at the crossing point resulting from the larger non-adiabatic crossing from 2B(1) to A(1) state than the reverse crossing. Moreover, the measured anisotropy parameter beta indicate that fragments recoil along the Br-Br direction mostly in the photodissociation.     

Photodissociation study of 1,3-dibromopropane at 234 nm via an ion velocity imaging technique

The photodissociation of 1,3-dibromopropane has been studied at 234 nm using a 2D photofragment ion velocity imaging technique coupled with a [2 + 1] resonance-enhanced multiphoton ionization scheme. The velocity distributions for the Br (2P1/2) (denoted Br) and Br (2P3/2) (denoted Br) fragments are determined, and each can be fitted by a narrow single-peaked Gaussian curve, suggesting that bromine fragments are generated as a result of direct dissociation via repulsive potential energy surfaces. The recoil anisotropies were measured to be beta = 0.80 for Br and 1.31 for Br, and the product relative quantum yields at 234 nm is Phi234 nm(Br) = 0.21.
