A beam containing methane and molecular chlorine is expanded into a vacuum where the methane is excited with two quanta of C–H stretching (one quantum each in two of the four C–H bonds). The reaction is initiated by fast Cl atoms generated by photolysis of Cl2 at 355 nm, and the resulting CH3 and HCl products are detected in a state-specific manner using resonance-enhanced multiphoton ionization. Speed-dependent spatial anisotropies (βprod) of HCl and CH3 products allow identification of three major product channels. They are in order of importance: (a) HCl (v=0)+CH3 [ν1 (symmetric stretch) or ν3 (asymmetric stretch)=1]; (b) HCl (v=1)+CH3 [ν2(umbrella bend)=1)]; and (c) HCl (v=1)+CH3 (ν1=1). The CH3 (v=0) product cannot be detected, and the HCl (v=2) product is minor. Channels (a) and (c) proceed in a vibrationally adiabatic manner, whereas channel (b) appears to involve the nonadiabatic interaction involving the low frequency bending mode in methane that correlates to the bending mode in the methyl radic...
