Observation of high vibrational excitation in HCN molecules produced from 193 nm photolysis of 1,3,5-triazine

Article abstract of DOI:10.1063/1.447422

Infrared emission from the ν₂ bending mode and ν₃ C-H stretching mode of HCN have been observed following 193 nm pulsed excimer laser photolysis of 1,3,5-triazine.Using a simple harmonic oscillator analysis, the number of ν₂ bending quanta produced in HCN from photolysis of sym-triazine was found to be 70 times larger than the number of ν₃ C-H stretching quanta.The combination of a high density of bending vibrational states in HCN and favorable geometry changes which occur in going from 1,3,5-triazine to three HCN molecules, appear to give an unusually pure distribution which maximizes vibrational energy in the HCN bending mode.
