✦ Synopsis


and references therein) to make a detailed calculation of the rovibronic energies in the first excited electronic state, à 2 , of the MgNC radical. This calculation is based on ab initio data (supplemented here with points for larger bending displacements from linearity) calculated at the level of MR-SDCI(+Q)/[TZ3P + f (Mg), aug-cc-pVQZ (N and C)] by T. E. Odaka, T. Taketsugu, T. Hirano, and U. Nagashima (J. Chem. Phys. 115, 1349Phys. 115, -1354Phys. 115, (2001))). These authors employed ab initio derived spectroscopic constants to calculate vibronic energies using perturbation expressions (J. T. Hougen and J. P. Jesson, J. Chem. Phys. 38, 1524-1525), and their results suggested that an observed vibronic band belonging to the à 2 ← X 2 + electronic transition (R. R. Wright and T. A. Miller, J. Mol. Spectrosc. 194, 219-228 (1999)) should be reassigned. The present work confirms this conclusion, which is further substantiated by the rotational structures calculated in the vibronic states and by Franck-Condon theory predicting relative intensities.

We have generated MgNC in supersonic free jet expansions and measured the laser-induced fluorescence excitation spectra of the C-N stretching vibronic bands of the à 2 -X 2 + transition. Rotational analysis yields the molecular constants of the vibronic levels, (1,0,0) and (1,0,1), in the à 2 state.

The MgNC radical was the first Mg-containing species to be observed in interstellar space. This fact has stimulated considerable spectroscopic interest in this molecule, and in its isomer MgCN, but nevertheless the only rotationally resolved spectroscopic data presently available for X 2 + MgNC comp
