Abstract
We report spectroscopic observations of the α,α-dichlorobenzyl radical obtained by corona excited supersonic jet expansion using a pinhole-type glass nozzle. Vibronically excited but jet-cooled radicals were generated by corona discharge of the precursor benzotrichloride with a large amount of helium carrier gas, from which the visible vibronic emission spectrum was recorded using a long path monochromator. From an analysis of the spectrum observed, the electronic energy of the D1→D0 transition and a few vibrational mode frequencies in the ground electronic state were obtained for the α,α-dichlorobenzyl radical by comparing observed frequencies with those obtained by ab initio calculation.
