For the first time nuclear track emulsion is exposed to relativistic {sup 9}C nuclei. A systematic pattern of the distributions of charge combinations of fragments in the peripheral interactions of {sup 9}C nuclei in a nuclear track emulsion has been obtained. The main conclusion is that the contribution of the channel {sup 9}C->{sup 8}B+p and {sup 9}C->{sup 7}Be+2p is most important in events that do not involve the production of target-nucleus fragments or mesons (coherent dissociation). It can be concluded that in the peripheral {sup 9}C dissociation the picture hitherto obtained for {sup 8}B and {sup 7}Be with the addition of one or two protons, respectively, is reproduced. Three coherent dissociation events {sup 9}C->3{sup 3}He accompanied by neither target fragments of the nucleus target nor charged mesons are identified.
