Correction: Isomerisation of phosphabutyne and a photochemical route to phosphabutadiyne (HC₃P), a phosphorus analogue of cyanoacetylene

Thermal decomposition of atrazine and its toxic products

Abstract

At temperatures above 400 °C, the thermal decomposition of ATZ produces highly toxic chemicals including hydrogen cyanide (HCN), thus posing environmental and health risks.

Fingerprinting fragments of fragile interstellar molecules: dissociation chemistry of pyridine and benzonitrile revealed by infrared spectroscopy and theory

Abstract

Fragmentation pathways of benzonitrile and pyridine are elucidated using cryogenic infrared ion spectroscopy, quantum-chemical calculations and molecular dynamics simulations.

A combined crossed molecular beam and theorerical study of the O(³P,¹D) + acrylonitrile (CH₂CHCN) reactions and implications for combustion and extraterrestrial environments

Abstract

The reaction between atomic oxygen and acrylonitrile (a ubiquitous species in space and in combustion environments) has been investigated under single collision conditions. Intersystem crossing was seen to dominate the reaction.

Isomerisation of phosphabutyne and a photochemical route to phosphabutadiyne (HC₃P), a phosphorus analogue of cyanoacetylene

Abstract

The photochemical reactions of phosphabutyne were studied in an argon matrix using infrared spectroscopy. Upon UV irradiation, the molecule underwent transformations, leading to the formation of several unsaturated phosphorus-containing compounds.
