OH fragment from benzoic acid monomer photolysis: Threshold and product state distribution
Photodissociation dynamics of benzoic acid monomer (BAM) at different ultraviolet excitation wavelengths (280-295 nm) has been investigated. The nascent OH product state distributions were measured using the laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) technique. The rotational state distributions, the A-doublet-state ratio, and spin-orbit state distributions of the OH fragment were also measured at 280-294 nm. The OH fragments are vibrationally cold, and their rotational state distributions are peaked at J '' = 3.5 at each photolysis wavelength. No LIF signal of OH fragments was observed at 295 rim. The photodissociation threshold is determined to be 102.5-103.9 kcal/mol for OH channel. The dissociative state and mechanism have been discussed for OH produced from the photodissociation of BAM.
