The 266 nm photodissociation of gaseous C 6 H 5 NO has been studied by monitoring the nascent NO (X 2 Πv''=0-3) product using the single-photon laser-induced fluorescence technique. The rotational-state distributions of the nascent NO photofragment have been measured and can be characterized by Bolzmann temperatures. The vibrational-state and Λ-doublet populations were also determined. Energy disposal into the internal degrees of freedom of NO (X 2 Π) photofragment is about 18% of the total available energy. Some planarity in the fragmentation process was observed.
