Previous work on the hydroxymethyl radical Characterized ionization and excited Rydberg states, including conical intersections Studied excited state photochemistry Demonstrated the breaking of the weak O-H bond in CH 2 OH following IR overtone excitation Today: direct dissociation dynamics vs. isomerization CH 2 OH IE = 7.56 eV Feng, Wei, and Reisler, J. Phys. Chem. A, 108, 7903 (2004). Wei, Karpichev, and Reisler, J. Chem. Phys. 125 (3): (2006).

Challenges – OH-stretch is the reaction coordinate for direct OH bond cleavage: How high can we go? – Isomerization vs. direct O-H fission; relative barrier heights – OH-overtone pumping is always hard: CH 3 OH, NH 2 OH, HOOH, etc. (Crim, Rizzo, Perry, etc.); – Radical is a minor species and hard to make – CH 2 OH has low-lying electronic states: Will we get substantial vibrationally mediated dissociation?

Summary The OH overtone spectrum of CH(D) 2 OH has been characterized in the 4 OH region. Mixed levels (most likely involving levels 4 OH and 3 OH + 1 asymCH ) are seen in CH 2 OH but not in CD 2 OH. Dissociation, probably by tunneling through the O—H barrier, has been demonstrated. The observation of formaldehyde levels with skeletal CH(D)excitation appears to be associated with isomerization, whereas C=O stretch excitation accompanies O-H bond fission. Isomerization yield is < 10%. It appears to be the result of statistical IVR due to weak high-order resonance couplings. Electronic structure and dynamical calculations are in progress in collaborative work with Dr. Eugene Kamarchik, Joel Bowman (Emory) and Anna Krylov (USC).
