We report the first spectroscopic identification of the p-fluoro-α-methylbenzyl radical in the gas phase. Precursor p-fluoro-ethylbenzene seeded in a large amount of inert carrier gas helium was electrically discharged to produce the benzyl-type radicals in a corona excited supersonic expansion using a pinhole-type glass nozzle, from which the vibronic emission spectrum was recorded in the visible region using a long path monochromator. From an analysis of the spectrum observed, we found the formation of p-fluoro-α-methylbenzyl radical as well as p-fluorobenzyl radical in the jet from the precursor. After eliminating the bands belonging to p-fluorobenzyl radical using the known data, we identified spectroscopically the formation of the p-fluoro-α-methylbenzyl radical, in which the energy of the D_1 → D_0 electronic transition and a few vibrational mode frequencies in the ground electronic state were determined by comparison with those from an ab initio calculation and with those from the known data of the precursor.
