Abstract: The reaction of ground-state boron atoms, B ((super 2)Pj), with dimethylacetylene, Ch3CCCH3 (X(super 1)A(sub 1g)) is investigated at a collision energy of 17.9 kJ mol(super -1) using the crossed molecular beam approach. The results indicate that the reaction follows indirect scattering dynamics.
