The ultrafast photo-fragmentation of dibenzoyl peroxide (DBPO) is studied using femtosecond UV excitation at 266 nm and mid-infrared broadband probe pulses to elucidate the dissociation mechanism. With the help of (13)C-labeled DBPO it was possible to unambiguously assign transient IR bands in the fingerprint region to the benzoyloxy radical. Our experiments show that the fragmentation is controlled by the S(1)-lifetime of DBPO and within 0.4 +/- 0.2 ps leads to a benzoyloxy/phenyl radical pair plus CO(2)via concerted bond breakage of the O-O and the phenyl-C(carbonyl) bond. 20% of the radical pairs geminately recombine to phenyl benzoate on a timescale of 70 ps.
