The He(1) photoelectron spectra of monohalogeno-and paradihalogeno-benzenes are reported. Extensive vibrational structure has been observed for ionization from n and lone-pair orbitals and is analysed by reference to frequencies for the neutral molecule. Bands are associated with particular valence shell orbitals by use of ab initio SCF calculations and a simple semi-empirical model.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
