Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland.We investigate dissociative electron attachment to tirapazamine through a crossed elec-tron–molecule beam experiment and quantum chemical calculations. After the electron is attached and the resulting anion reaches the first excited state, D1, we suggest a fast transition into the ground electronic state through a conical intersection with a distorted triazine ring that almost coincides with the minimum in the D1 state. Through analysis of all observed dissociative pathways produc-ing heavier ions (90–161 u), we consider the predissociation of an OH radical with possible roaming mechanism, as introduced in our recent letter [Angew Chem Int. Ed., 59, 17177 (2020)], to be the common first step. This destabilizes the triazine ring and leads to dissociation of highly stable nitrogen-containing species. The benzene ring is not altered during the process. Dissociation of small anionic fragments (NO2−, CN2−, CN−, NH2−, O−) cannot be conclusively linked to the OH predissociation mechanism; however, they again do not require dissociation of the benzene ring.CeFITec – Centro de Física e Investigação TecnológicaDF – Departamento de FísicaRUNArthur‐Baidoo, EugeneAmeixa, JoãoOnčák, MilanDenifl, Stephan2024-03-14T00:17:28Z2021-03-192021-03-19T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/article13application/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10362/164915eng1661-6596PURE: 85383643https://doi.org/10.3390/ijms22063159info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP)instname:FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiainstacron:RCAAP2024-05-22T18:19:33Zoai:run.unl.pt:10362/164915Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireinfo@rcaap.ptopendoar:https://opendoar.ac.uk/repository/71602025-05-28T17:50:25.410309Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP) - FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiafalse
