Abstract
Strong emission bands originating from NCO A2Σ and NH (A 3π, c 1π) were found in the photodissociation of HNCO in the vacuum ultraviolet. In addition, weak bands coming from NCO B 2Π were observed. Threshold energies of incident photons to produce these bands were measured, from which the following bond dissociation energies and heats of formation were obtained: D(H–NCO) = 4.90 ± 0.01 eV, D(HN–CO) = 3.38 ± 0.1 eV, D(N–CO) = 2.14 ± 0.15 eV, ΔHf(HNCO) = − 1.0 ± 0.14 eV, ΔHf(NCO) = 1.6 ± 0.15 eV. The emission spectrum, NCO A 2Σ → X 2π, produced from the photolysis at the Xe and Kr lines shows that NCO A 2Σ is highly excited in bending vibration, indicating that the upper state of HNCO from which NCO A 2Σ predissociates has a bent NCO configuration. NH c1Π formed is highly rotationally excited. Experimental evidence is presented to show that NH A 3π is produced primarily by a secondary process, CO a 3π + NH X 3Σ → CO X 1Σ + NH A 3π. Primary processes in the near‐ultraviolet photolysis of HNCO are discussed on...

The heat of formation of NCO

TL;DR: In this paper, five independent reactions were investigated to establish a consistent value for ΔHf,0○(NCO): (a) HNCO(X 1A’)→H++NCO−, (c) N(4S)+CO→NCO-2Π), (d) HCN+O(3P)→HC(2S)+NCO[2S]-NCO

Toward subchemical accuracy in computational thermochemistry: focal point analysis of the heat of formation of NCO and [H,N,C,O] isomers.

TL;DR: The internal consistency and convergence behavior of the data suggests accuracies of +/-0.2 kcal mol(-1) in these predictions, except perhaps in the HCNO case, and the need for CCSDTQ [full coupled cluster through quadruple excitations] computations to eliminate remaining uncertainties is apparent.
