Abstract

Abstract: Oxygen-atom transfer from NO2 to allene and dimethylacetylene was observed upon excitation of reactant pairs in solid Ar at wavelengths as long as 585 (NO2+ allene) and 610 nm (NOz+ dimethylacetylene). Continuous wave dye laser radiation was used to initiate reaction, and product growth was monitored by FT-infrared spectroscopy. In the case of the allene+ NO2 reaction 2-allyl nitrite radical was obtained as product, while excitation ...
