Abstract
Abstract The gas-phase reactivities of nitrogen monoxide for groundstate molybdenum atoms and dimers have been investigated in a mass-flow controlled cell. Transient concentration of Mo (a 7S3) or Mo2 (X 1Σg+, v = 0) produced by 355-nm multiphoton decomposition of Mo(CO)6 was monitored by a laser-induced fluorescence. These measurements suggest the simple adduct formation such as Mo(NO) for the reaction of Mo + NO but a certain chemical bond activation of NO on Mo2.
