Photodissociation dynamics of 1,2-butadiene at 157 nm.
Photodissociation dynamics of 1,2-butadiene at 157 nm has been investigated using a molecular beam apparatus based on photoionization using vacuum ultraviolet synchrotron radiation. Six dissociation pathways have been observed. The observed channels are C4H5+H, C4H4+H2, C3H3+CH3, C2H3+C2H3, C2H4+C2H2, and C4H4+H+H. Among all the dissociation channels, the C3H3+CH3 channel is found to be the dominant process. The product kinetic energy distributions of all dissociation channels have been determined from simulating the experimental time-of-flight spectra. Relative branching ratios for all observed dissociation channels were also estimated based on all detected products.
