Abstract
Threshold photoelectron spectra of combustion relevant C4H5 isomers, 2-butyn-1-yl and 1-butyn-3-yl, and C4H7 isomers, 1-methylallyl and 2-methylallyl, have been recorded using vacuum ultraviolet synchrotron radiation. Adiabatic ionization energies (IEad) have been determined by assigning spectroscopic transitions in mass-selected threshold photoelectron spectra aided by Franck-Condon simulations. The following values were obtained: (7.97 ± 0.02) eV (1-butyn-3-yl), (7.94 ± 0.02) eV (2-butyn-1-yl), (7.48 ± 0.01) eV (1-E-methylallyl), (7.59 ± 0.01) eV (1-Z-methylallyl), and (7.88 ± 0.01) eV (2-methylallyl). Good agreement with CBS-QB3 calculations and simulations could be achieved.
