Reaction Dynamics during Warm-Up of Matrix-Isolated Cyanogen Azide After Photolysis

The photolysis products of NCN3 in solid argon and nitrogen have been observed in the IR as well as UV-visible emission upon warm-up.Our IR data are consistent with earlier work on this system except for the observation of three additional bands with photolysis growth independent of each other: 339, 1232, and 1850 cm-1.The warm-up emission is assigned to the CCN radical, C2 (five Swan bands), N atoms (2D 4S), and a strong emission at 6000 Angstroem, yet unidentified.We report here the experimental evidence for a possible mechanism for the photolysis and subsequent warm-up in argon and nitrogen matrices.
