Inner shell photofragmentation of 2Cl-pyrimidine studied by mass spectrometry and electron–ion coincidence experiments
Photoelectron spectroscopy, mass spectrometry and electron–ion coincidence experiments combined with tunable synchrotron radiation have been used to study the decay and fragmentation of 2Cl-pyrimidine after Cl(2p), C(1s) and N(1s) excitations. The goal is to investigate how the state- and site-selected excitation and the chemical environment affect the fragmentation paths of the molecule and to make a comparison with fragmentation induced by direct valence ionization.
