A new angle-resolving electron energy analyzer composed of a conical electrostatic prism and a position-sensitive detector was developed for gas phase photoelectron spectroscopy. The performance of the analyzer has been tested by measuring photoelectron spectra of Ar using a helium discharge lamp. The angular resolution of 3° was achieved at the pass energy E of 5.6 eV. The best energy resolution was ΔE/E = 0.043 at E = 1.4 eV .

The photoelectron spectra of the tautomeric 1,2,3,- and 1,2,4-triazole and 1,2,3,4-tetrazole systems have been compared with the corresponding N-methyl derivatives. The dominant tautomers in the gas phase have been identified as 2 H-1,2,3-triazole, 1 H-1,2,4-triazole and 2H-tetrazole.Full optimisation of the equilibrium geometry by ab initio molecular orbital methods leads to the same conclusions, for relative stability of the tautomers in each of the triazoles, but the calculations wrongly predict the tetrazole tautomerism.

Uv Photoelectron Spectroscopy

Ultraviolet photoelectron spectra (UPS) of tetrasubstituted diphosphine disulfides RR'P(S)- P(S)RR' exhibit peculiar 1:2:1 splitting patterns in the region 7.5-9.5 eV for which a throughbond coupling mechanism between the sulfur lone pairs lying in the PPS planes is proposed. Further bond orbitals are related to bands at higher I. E. in the UP spectra

The gas phase X-ray photoelectron spectra, XPS, were observed for the series C6F5X (X = F, Cl, I, Br, H). Binding energies were determined from the spectra using the ESCAPLOT Program. Charge calculations were carried out using Equalization of Electronegativity, CNDO/2, and ACHARGE approaches on each molecule. The more sophisticated analysis leads to the following equation correlating the (C 1s) binding energies and the atomic charges qi[Formula: see text]

Vanadium Monoxide

Recent developments in the use of photoelectron spectroscopy to study reactive intermediates in the gas phase are reviewed. The information to be derived on low-lying cationic states from such studies is illustrated by considering two diatomic molecules, NCI and PF, and one triatomic molecule, HNO. Also, the use of a transition-metal photoelectron spectrum to interpret the photoelectron spectrum of the corresponding transition-metal oxide is discussed by using the spectra of vanadium and vanadium monoxide as examples. The value of super-heating in high-temperature photoelectron spectroscopy is demonstrated by considering the vapour-phase photoelectron spectra of the monomers and dimers of sodium hydroxide.

<div>Core level photoelectron spectroscopy is a widely used technique to study amino acids. Interpretation of the individual contributions from functional groups and their local chemical environments to overall spectra requires both high-resolution reference spectra and theoretical insights, for example from density functional theory calculations. This is a particular challenge for crystalline amino acids due to the lack of experimental data and the limitation of previous calculations to gas phase molecules. </div><div>Here, a state of the art multiresolution approach is used for high precision gas phase calculations and to validate core hole pseudopotentials for plane-wave calculations. This powerful combination of complementary numerical techniques provides a framework for accurate ΔSCF calculations for molecules and solids in systematic basis sets. It is used to successfully predict C and O 1<i>s</i> core level spectra of glycine, alanine and serine and identify chemical state contributions to experimental spectra of crystalline amino acids.</div>

Gas-phase pyrolysis of 2-methoxy-2-methylsulfanyl-5,5-dimethyl-2,5-dihydro[1,3,4]oxadiazole (1) (also known as 2-methoxy-5,5-dimethyl-2-methylthio-2,5-dihydro[1,3,4]oxadiazole and 2-methoxy-2-methylthio-5,5-dimethyl-Δ3-l,3,4-oxadiazoline) in the source of an UV photoelectron spectrometer, by means of a CW CO2 laser as directed heat source, gave a photoelectron (PE) spectrum that included ionization bands belonging to acetone and methoxy(methylthio)carbene (3). Photoelectron spectra of authentic samples of (E)-1,2-dimethoxy-1,2-dimethyl thioethene (4), (Z)-1,2-dimethoxy-1,2-dimethylthioethene (5), S-methyl thioethanoate (6), and O-methyl ethanethioate (7), which can be derived by dimerization and rearrangement of the carbene, established that these compounds are not present in the pyrolysate. DFT calculations at the B3PW91/6-31+G(d,p) level and simulation of PE spectra at the B3LYP/6-31+G(d,p) level were instrumental in the interpretation of the experimental results. From the available experimental and calculated data, 3 is formed in a Sickle conformation upon pyrolysis of 1. Transition states for the rearrangement of 3 were examined with QTAIM.
