science-softCon uv/vis spectra data base; www.uv-spectra.de; (C) science-softCon 2008 Substance: ethyl radical Other Names: Formula: C2H5 CAS-No.: 2025-56-1 Study: photochemistry Authors: J. Pacansky, H. Coufal Title: Photochemical studies on the ethyl radical Journal/Source: J. Chem. Phys., 71, 2811, (1979); DOI:10.1063/1.438670 Data: (diagram, table, disk): Energy/Wavelength range: < 280 nm Resolution: Temperature: Temperature dependence: Pressure: Comments: Photochemical studies are performed on dipropionyl peroxide and the ethyl radical in argon matrices. Irradiation of the ethyl radical by UV light with lambda<2800 Å produces ethyl propionate, propionic acid, ethylene, and acetylene. Author to whom correspondence should be addressed: (e-mail address):
