The electronic absorption spectrum of the benzyl radical (C6H5CH2•) has been measured in the region of the vibrationally mixed 12A2−22B1 excited states near 450 nm by cavity ring-down spectroscopy (CRDS) in 20 Torr of argon or nitrogen diluents at 298 K. The absorption cross section was determined from the CRDS absorption and the rates of radical−radical cross reactions. At 447.7 nm, σbenzyl = (2.2 ± 0.8) × 10-18 cm2 molecule-1 (base e). The rate constant for the reaction of benzyl radicals with Cl atoms was derived during the modeling: k(C6H5CH2 + Cl) = (2.5 ± 1.0) × 10-10 cm3 molecule-1 s-1. Time-dependent density functional theory calculations support the interpretation of the absorption spectrum of the benzyl radical.
