The spectroscopy and photodissociation dynamics of the à 3 ⌸ and B 3 ⌺ Ϫ states of the CNN radical have been investigated by fast beam photofragment translational spectroscopy. Vibronic transitions located more than 1000 cm Ϫ1 above the à 3 ⌸←X 3 ⌺ Ϫ origin were found to predissociate. Photofragment yield spectra for the B 3 ⌺ Ϫ ←X 3 ⌺ Ϫ band between 40 800 and 45 460 cm Ϫ1 display resolved vibrational progressions with peak spacing of Ϸ1000 cm Ϫ1 corresponding to symmetric stretch 1 0 n and combination band 1 0 n 3 0 1 progressions. Ground state products C(3 P)ϩN 2 were found to be the major photodissociation channel for both the à 3 ⌸ and B 3 ⌺ Ϫ states. The translational energy distributions for the à 3 ⌸ state are bimodal with high and low translational energy components. The distributions for the B 3 ⌺ Ϫ state reveal partially resolved vibrational structure for the N 2 photofragment and indicate extensive vibrational and rotational excitation of this fragment. These results suggest that bent geometries are involved in the dissociation mechanism and provide more accurate values: ⌬ f H 0 ͑CNN͒ϭ6.16Ϯ0.05 eV and ⌬ f H 298 ͑CNN͒ϭ6.15Ϯ0.05 eV. These values, coupled with recent D 0 ͑RH͒ and D 298 ͑RH͒ values from Clifford et al. ͓J. Phys. Chem. 102, 7100 ͑1998͔͒, yield ⌬ f H 0 ͑HCNN͒ϭ5.02Ϯ0.18 eV, ⌬ f H 298 ͑HCNN͒ϭ4.98Ϯ0.18 eV, ⌬ f H 0 ͑H 2 CNN͒ϭ3.09Ϯ0.21 eV, and ⌬ f H 0 ͑H 2 CNN͒ϭ3.09Ϯ0.21 eV.
