Abstract
A laser induced fluroescence spectrum has been observed from the products of the ArF photolysis of 0-chloroaniline in a supersonic free jet expansion. The spectrum, with origin at $27143 cm^{-1}$, is believed to arise from the $T_{1} - T_{0}$ transition of the phenyl nitrene radical. Although phenyl nitrene is of interest on its own, it should have a similar electronic structure to that of the better known benzyl radical. This talk will concentrate on the verification of the carrier of the spectrum observed as well as a rotational analysis of the spectrum.
