Abstract
We determine the pathways in the photo-dissociation reactions of Fe(CO)5 both in the gas phase and in solution by mapping the valence electronic structure of the reaction intermediates with femtosecond X-ray laser spectroscopy.

We address photo-dissociation of the prototypical transition-metal carbonyl molecule Fe(CO)5 both in the gas phase and in solution (Figure 1) [1]
Summary
Molecular structure and bonding determine the dynamic pathways of molecules in their multidimensional landscapes and define the outcome of chemical reactions. We determine the pathways in the photo-dissociation reactions of Fe(CO)5 both in the gas phase and in solution by mapping the valence electronic structure of the reaction intermediates with femtosecond X-ray laser spectroscopy. We present our time-resolved X-ray view of a molecular dissociation reaction.
