Abstract

The reaction of the cyano radical (CN) with ethane (C₂H₆) was studied using time resolved infrared absorption to monitor the product hydrogen cyanide (HCN) in individual ro-vibrational states. Pulse laser photolysis was used to provide an initial excess of the CN radical and the time dependence of individual ro-vibrational states of the high frequency antisymmetric stretching mode of HCN (0,0,v₃) was followed. These experiments reveal that the initial product state distribution of HCN is not highly excited in the HCN(0,0,v₃) vibrational manifold.
