Notes:
CD3 radicals were generated by excimer laser photolysis (248 nm) of CD3 I, and the transient populations detected by diode laser absorption using a gated integrator signal averager. The v2 =1←0, 2←1, and 3←2 bands of the CD3 radical were observed, and band center frequencies were determined to be 457.8133(11), 507.9311(19), and 542.4510(29) cm−1, respectively. Observed transitions were fitted, by least squares analysis, to yield rotational and centrifugal distortion constants and spin–rotation parameters, and results are compared to theory. Measurements were also carried out of the time dependence of the vibration–rotation level populations as a function of vibrational excitation and spin component.
