Abstract
Vibrational spectrum of 2-C3H5Br cation in the ground electronic state was obtained by one-photon mass-analyzed threshold ionization (MATI) spectroscopy using coherent vacuum ultraviolet radiation generated by four-wave difference frequency mixing in Kr. From the MATI spectra, ionization energy of 2-C3H5Br to the ionic ground state has been determined to be 9.4377±0.0006 eV. Vibrational assignments have been made by comparing with the vibrational frequencies and Franck-Condon factors calculated at the B3LYP and BP86 levels with the 6-311++G(3df,3pd) basis set. Several low-frequency bands have been assigned to the torsional motion of the methyl group in the cation. Energies of the torsional states and relative transition intensities to these states have been reproduced well by a one-dimensional rotor model. The torsional barrier and internal rotational constant have been determined to be 80.0 and 5.13 cm−1, respectively.
