title: Matrix isolation and spectroscopic properties of the methylsulfinyl radical CH3(O)S˙.
abstract: The atmospherically highly relevant methylsulfinyl radical CH3(O)S˙ was generated thermally under flash pyrolysis conditions and isolated in Ar matrices at 10 K; the allyl radical is a byproduct. CH3(O)S˙ and its D3- and (13)C-isotopologues were characterized through the excellent agreement between experimental and computed IR and UV/Vis spectra.
