The collisionless photodissociation dynamics of isobutene (i-C4H8) at 193 nm via photofragment translational spectroscopy are reported. Two major photodissociation channels were identified: H + C4H7 and CH3 + CH3CCH2. Translational energy distributions indicate that both channels result from statistical decay on the ground state surface. Although the CH3 loss channel lies 13 kcal mol−1 higher in energy, the CH3 : H branching ratio was found to be 1.7 (5), in reasonable agreement with RRKM calculations.
