Reaction Channels of HCO with NO Study by Time-resolved TR-FTIR Spectroscope

The gaseous reaction of CH+NO2 has been investigated experimentally. CH radical was generated by multiple photon photolysis of CHBr3 at 248 nm. Vibrationally excited species of HCO (ν3), CO(v), CO2(ν3), HNO (ν1), OH(v) were detected as emitters of CH+NO2 reaction by time-resolved Fourier transform spectroscope. Three exothermic reaction channels leading to HCO+NO, NH+CO2, CO+HNO, are identified. The minor reaction leading to OH+NCO may also occur.
