Popis: | The processes of stepwise ionization of the 2,4-dioxybenzaldehyde and 3,4-dimethoxypropiophenone vapors by radiation in the range of wavelengths down to 266 nm were studied using total-current spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and photoelectron spectroscopy. The process of two-step ionization and the resulting generation of molecular ions are dominant if the laser-radiation intensity amounts to ≈106 W/cm2. These molecular ions have appreciable (up to 1.8 eV) energy of vibrational excitation. As the laser-radiation intensity increases, progressively more pronounced fragmentation occurs owing to dissociation of molecular (and, possibly, fragmentation) ions as a result of absorption of at least a single additional photon. The processes leading to fragmentation of ions are suggested. It is found that the dissociation-ionization mechanism is important for the dimethoxypropiophenone. Dissociation with a breakage of the α bond in the carbonyl group with subsequent two-photon ionization of the fragments occurs when the S 2(1 A′) state of the ππ* type is excited. |
