Site-Specific Carbon–Carbon Bond Fission in Photoexcited Propyl Radicals Leads to Isomer-Selective Carbene and Radical Products Open
Although there have been many studies of C-H bond fission in the UV photochemistry of alkyl radicals, very little is known about the possible occurrence of C-C bond fission. Here, we report that upon excitation at 248 nm, gaseous 1-propyl …

Dimethylcarbene versus Direct Propene Formation in Dimethylketene Photodissociation Open
Highly reactive carbenes are usually produced by photolysis of ketenes, diazoalkanes, or diazirines. Sequential kinetic pathways for deactivation of nascent carbenes usually involve bimolecular reactions in competition with isomerization p…

Subpicosecond HI elimination in the 266 nm photodissociation of branched iodoalkanes Open
New experiments reveal a close connection between the nonadiabatic dynamics of C–I bond fission and HI elimination in the photodissociation of branched iodoalkanes.

High intensity vacuum ultraviolet and extreme ultraviolet production by noncollinear mixing in laser vaporized media Open
A method is described for generating intense pulsed vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) and extreme ultraviolet (XUV) laser radiation by resonance enhanced four-wave mixing of commercial pulsed nanosecond lasers in laser vaporized mercury under windo…
