AbstractThe photoelectron (PE) spectra of bis(dialkylamino) acetylenes R2N-C≡C-NR2 and of tetrakis(dialkylamino) allenes (R2N)2C=C=C(NR2)2 with R = CH3, C2H5 exhibit characteristic ionization patterns which are assigned to π radical cation states of the two molecular halves twisted against each other. The low first ionization potentials between 7.0 eV and 7.7 eV stimu­lated attempts to oxidize using AlCl3 in H2CCl2 or D2CCl2. The hyperfine structured ESR spectra observed can be unequivocally assigned to the ethylene radical cations R2N-HC=CH -NR2˙⊕ which are formed from the obviously non-persistent species R2N-C≡C-NR2˙⊕ via a hydrogen transfer. During the oxidation of the dialkylamino-substituted allenes no paramagnetic intermedi­ates could be detected, presumably due to a rapid dimerisation of the allene radical cation (R2N)2C=C=C(NR2)2˙⊕.

The vertical ionization potentials of the β- and γ-methyl substituted allyl radicals as measured by electron impact are 8.03 ± 0.05 v. and 7.71 ± 0.05 v, respectively. From appearance potential data the following bond dissociation energies can be derived, assuming the dissociation processes to be free from complications:[Formula: see text]With assumptions about the structure of the ions produced by electron impact from the corresponding butenes the dissociation energies of the C4H7—H bonds in these latter compounds can be estimated, and the heats of formation of the corresponding radicals derived, namely:[Formula: see text]From data on the allyl halides we evaluate the heat of formation of the allyl radical to be:[Formula: see text]

The ionization potentials of ethyl, isopropyl, and propargyl radicals have been measured by electron impact on radicals produced by thermal decomposition of appropriate compounds. The values are:ethyl 8.78±0.05 ev., isopropyl 7.90±0.05 ev., and propargyl 8.25±0.08 ev. From the appearance potentials of these ions in various compounds, the following values of bond dissociation energies were obtained:[Formula: see text][Formula: see text] assuming no kinetic energy of the products.

The ionization potentials of a number of methyl-substituted benzenes and cyclopentadienes have been measured by electron impact. The experimental results are compared to calculations based on a group orbital method.

The constitutions of the cyclopolyarsines (AsR)n (R = methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, and phenyl) have been investigated by nuclear magnetic resonance and mass spectrometric techniques. A systematic study of their fragmentation under electron impact at different ionization potentials has confirmed the presence of pentameric alkyl and hexameric phenyl cyclic arsines. Variable temperature N.M.R. spectra obtained for pentamethylcyclopentaarsine have been interpreted in terms of a rapid pseudorotation process. Some mixed methylphenyl cyclic arsines have been identified.
