title: Product Channels in the Reaction of the Hydroxymethyl Radical with Nitric Oxide.
abstract: The products of the reaction of CH2OH with NO were studied by infrared diode laser spectroscopy. Products were detected to determine the branching ratios of the CH2OH + NO reaction. HNCO was detected in 10.3 ± 2% yields. No other products were detected in significant quantities, indicating that adduct formation is the primary reaction pathway. Ab initio calculations of the potential energy surface show a low energy pathway to HNCO + H2O, but no other bimolecular channels, in agreement with the experiments.
