Matrix reactions of P2 and O3 molecules

Abstract Matrix reactions of P 2 and isotopic ozone molecules have been studied using both heated GaP and discharge of P 4 as sources of P 2 . Isotopic shifts and multiplets support identification of PO, PO 2 , P 2 O, P 2 O 2 , P 2 O 3 , P 2 O 4 , P 2 O 5 and PO 2 − in these experiments.

Matrix reactions of P4 and P2 with O3 molecules

Abstract Matrix reaction of P 4 and P 2 with isotopic ozone molecules have been studied using both heated GaP and discharge of P 4 from white phosphorus as sources of P 2 . Isotopic shifts and multiplets support identification of P 4 O terminal and bridged isomers, PO, PO 2 , P 2 O, P 2 O 2 , P 2 O 3 , P 2 O 4 , and P 2 O 5 in these experiments.
