Abstract
The production of OH radicals in infrared multiphoton dissociation of C n H 2 n + 1 OH ( n = 1–4) homologs has been studied. The OH yield has been found to drop abnormally rapidly with increasing gas pressure of alcohols with n ⩾ 2. Possible reasons for the observed effect, such as redistribution of intramolecular vibrational energy within the electronic ground state and a non-adiabatic vibrational-electronic transition, are discussed.
