Infrared chemiluminescence from vibrationally excited CO was observed when CH3Cl, CH2Cl2, CHCl3, or CH2Br2 was introduced into a stream of oxygen atoms. Emission from vibrationally excited HCl was also observed from CH2Cl2 and CHCl3. The mechanisms describing the reactions of oxygen atoms with these molecules are discussed in detail. The reaction step responsible for the formation of CO† is postulated to be[Formula: see text]and for HCl†[Formula: see text]

Infrared chemiluminescence from vibrationally excited CO and from vibrationally excited HCl was observed when C2H3Cl, 1,1-C2H2Cl2, cis- and trans-1,2-C2H2Cl2, or C2HCl3 was introduced into a stream of oxygen atoms. The mechanisms describing the reactions of oxygen atoms with these molecules are discussed in detail. The initial step is postulated to involve the formation of an aldehyde and a carbene. The reaction step responsible for the formation of CO† is postulated to be[Formula: see text]and for HCl†[Formula: see text]

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.

A new experimental method has been developed which allows determination of the products nature in dissociative recombination (D.R.) of molecular ions. Results are presented on H2O+ D.R. which show that there is a large yield of oxygen atoms in this reaction. the measurements give a total yield for the two channel O + H + H and O + H2 of 0.45 and therefore a yield of 0.55 for OH + H. H2O+ ions are formed by charge exchange from N+ ions and are probably vibrationally excited in this experiment.


The photolytic decomposition of ozone has been further investigated using the technique of flash photolysis. Earlier results have been extended and a detailed mechanism for the production of vibrationally excited oxygen molecules put forward. Comparative studies of the decomposition with and without traces of water present have shown that the 1 D oxygen atom must be responsible for the chain reaction in both cases. When dry ozone is photolyzed under isothermal conditions, absorption due to vibrationally excited oxygen molecules in their electronic ground states is detected. These molecules are produced by the reaction O + O 3 → O* 2 + O 2 with up to 17 quanta of vibrational energy, and are rotationally cold. When water is present, however, no absorption due to O* 2 occurs but strong OH absorption is seen and it is shown that OH radicals are responsible for propagating the chain reaction in this case. These radicals can only be formed by the reaction O( 1 D ) + H 2 O → 2OH + O 2 , leading to chain branching. It is an interesting observation that this reaction must be preferred to that with ozone stated above. This conclusion will be examined later. Reactions of 1 D oxygen atoms with fluorine, chlorine, bromine and hydrogen have also been investigated.

Immunoelectron microscopy of neoplastic lymphoma cells is valuable for precise localization of surface antigens and identification of cell types. We have developed a new approach in which the immunohistochemical staining can be evaluated prior to embedding for EM and desired area subsequently selected for ultrathin sectioning.A freshly prepared lymphoma cell suspension is spun onto polylysine hydrobromide- coated glass slides by cytocentrifugation and immediately fixed without air drying in polylysine paraformaldehyde (PLP) fixative. After rinsing in PBS, slides are stained by a 3-step immunoperoxidase method. Cell monolayer is then fixed in buffered 3% glutaraldehyde prior to DAB reaction. After the DAB reaction step, wet monolayers can be examined under LM for presence of brown reaction product and selected monolayers then processed by routine methods for EM and embedded with the Chien Re-embedding Mold. After the polymerization, the epoxy blocks are easily separated from the glass slides by heatingon a 100°C hot plate for 20 seconds.
