Experimental and Theoretical Investigations of the Fragmentation of Ethylenediamine Induced by Low-Energy (<10 eV) Electrons

Résumé

Ethylenediamine is industrially used as an intermediate for the fabrication of many products. The development of new methodologies for synthesis compatible with the environment and sustainability, such as cold plasma processes, implicates reactions induced by nonthermal electrons. In this contribution, we study the interaction of low-energy (<10 eV) electrons with ethylenediamine. We show that electrons induce the fragmentation of the molecule into various anion fragments and associated neutral counterparts via dissociative electron attachment. The fragmentation mechanisms and energetics are discussed in the frame of DFT calculations. The fragmentation processes are quantified by the estimation of the cross sections and the branching ratios for competitive accessible dissociation routes.
