Abstract |
We have generated MgNC in supersonic free jet expansions and observed the laser induced fluorescence(LIF) of the A˜2 – X˜2Σ+ transition. We measured the LIF dispersed spectra from the single vibronic levels of the A˜ 2Π electronic state of MgNC, following excitation of each ν2 bending vibronic band observed, i.e., the κ series of the (0,v′2,0)–(0,0,0), v′2 = 0, 1, 2, 4, and 6 vibronic bands. In the vibrational structure in the dispersed fluorescence spectra measured, the long progression of the ν2 bending mode in the X˜2Σ+ state is identified, e.g., up to v''2=14 in the (0,6,0)–(0,v''2,0) spectrum. This enables us to derive the potential curve of the ν2 bending mode in the X˜2Σ+ state. We used two kinds of models to obtain the potential curve; (I) the customary formula expressed in the polynomial series of the (v''2+(d2/2)) term and (II) the internal rotation model. The potential curve derived from model (I) indicates the convergence of the bending vibrational levels at about 800 cm−1 from the vibrationless level of MgNC, which may correspond to the barrier height of the isomerization reaction, MgNC ⇌ MgCN, in the X˜2Σ+ state. Model (II) gives a simple picture for the isomerization reaction pathway with a barrier height of about 630 cm−1 from the vibrationless level of the more stable species, MgNC. This shows that the v''2=8 bending vibrational level of MgNC is already contaminated by the v''2=2 bending vibrational level of the isomer, MgCN, and implies that the isomerization reaction begins at the v''2=8 level. The bending potential surface and the isomerization reaction pathway, MgNC ⇌ MgCN, in the X˜2Σ+ state are discussed by comparing the potential derived in this study with the surface obtained by quantum chemical calculation. |
