Abstract
High resolution photoelectron spectra of the 1-propynyl and 1-propynyl-d(3) anions acquired with slow electron velocity-map imaging are presented. The electron affinity is determined to be 2.7355+/-0.0010 eV for the 1-propynyl radical and 2.7300+/-0.0010 eV for 1-propynyl-d(3). Several vibronic transitions are observed and assigned using the isotopic shifts and results from ab initio calculations. Good agreement between experimental spectra and calculations suggests a C(3v) geometry for the 1-propynyl radical. No evidence is found for strong vibronic coupling between the ground electronic state and the low-lying first excited state.
