The photolyses of acetone, acetone-d6, and acetone-d6 – hydrogen mixtures were investigated at 471 °K. The rates of formation of methane, ethane, and carbon monoxide and the ratio [Formula: see text] were independent of the fractional amount of acetone which photolyzed, as measured by 100[CO]/[A]0, which was varied from <1% to 18%. When the acetone-d6–hydrogen mixtures were photolyzed, [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] were observed to be functions of [A]0 and [H2]0. It is postulated that some of the CD4 and CD3H was formed by a reaction between methyl radicals and an excited molecule which contained both C—D and C—H bonds.

Carbon dioxide has been shown to decompose into carbon monoxide and oxygen atoms, when exposed to radiation at 2537 Å, in the presence of mercury vapor. The rate rises steeply with decreasing substrate pressure, and varies directly with the 1.8 ± 0.1 power of the light intensity. The proposed mechanism attributes reaction to the collision of electronically excited CO2 molecules with Hg 6(3P1) atoms. The suppression of reaction at higher substrate pressures is readily explained in terms of collisional deactivation of the excited CO2 species. Nitrogen was found to increase the rate of CO formation; the maximum effect was obtained for a mixture of 7.4 mm nitrogen and 3.74 mm carbon dioxide, in which case the rate was 1.58 times that for pure substrate. It is shown that nitrogen serves to generate metastable Hg 6(3P0) atoms, which can sensitize the decomposition. The reaction might serve as a chemical method for monitoring Hg 6(3P0) atoms. For CO2–N2 mixtures, the rate was found to rise when the reacting system was exposed to radiation at 4047 Å. This is taken as direct evidence of sensitization by higher states of mercury, generated by stepwise excitation, since radiation at 4047 Å converts Hg 6(3P0) to Hg 7(3S1).

Infrared chemiluminescence attributed to the first overtone of CO was observed when either C2H2 or was introduced into a stream of oxygen which had been passed through a microwave discharge. The addition of vibrationally cold CO to these systems was found to produce a vibrational population inversion in the chemically formed CO. CO first overtone emission was not observed when CH4 was introduced into a similar stream of oxygen unless the CH4 had been subjected to a microwave discharge. These observations are used to clarify the mechanisms governing the formation of CO in continuous wave air–helium–hydrocarbon electrical discharge lasers.
