The He I and He II spectra obtained for chlorodimethylamine (CH3)2NCl, and bromodimethylamine (CH3)2NBr, complete the study of the N-chloro and N-bromo derivatives of the small amines. The valence photoelectron spectra are interpreted with the aid of SPINDO molecular orbital calculations. Trends in the observed ionization energies for both series of small halo amines are described in terms of variations in inductive and resonance effects, the latter particularly concerning the nN/nx lone-pair interactions observed in the low ionization energy range.

The He I photoelectron spectrum of 1-bromotricyclo[2.2.1.02.6] heptane (1- bromonortricyclene ) is compared with that of the parent alkane . Extensive conjugation between bromine and alkane orbitals in the low ionization-energy range produces a complex band pattern which is adequately described by ab initio valence-electron molecular orbital calculations. Consequently 1-bromo-nortricyclene presents a rare example of an alkyl halide in which the halogen character is neither highly localized nor smeared over a high density of states.

The Gelius intensity model has been adapted in the semiempirical HAM/3 method to calculate the valence ionization energies and intensities in XPS. Both semiempirical and àb initio Hartree–Fock–Slater atomic photoionization cross-sections can be used. Results presented for C2H2, C2H4, N2, H2O, CH3OH, and CH2F2 demonstrate that the present method can facilitate the interpretation of experimental XPS.

The photoelectron spectra of the tautomeric 1,2,3,- and 1,2,4-triazole and 1,2,3,4-tetrazole systems have been compared with the corresponding N-methyl derivatives. The dominant tautomers in the gas phase have been identified as 2 H-1,2,3-triazole, 1 H-1,2,4-triazole and 2H-tetrazole.Full optimisation of the equilibrium geometry by ab initio molecular orbital methods leads to the same conclusions, for relative stability of the tautomers in each of the triazoles, but the calculations wrongly predict the tetrazole tautomerism.

The photoelectron spectra of cis- and trans-2-aminocyclopentanol and cis- and trans-2-(N,N,-dimethylamino)cyclopentanol have been recorded and interpreted. The cis isomers exhibit N lone pair ionizations at higher ionization energy, and O lone pair ionizations at lower ionization energy than their trans isomers.The results are most consistent with the existence and observation of intramolecular hydrogen-bonding in the cis isomers. Infrared data on these systems also show that the cis isomers exist in the intramolecularly hydrogen-bonded state.

The electronic structure of tetrathiofulvalene (TTF) has been determined from its photoelectron spectrum and the photoelectron data for the tetrahydro derivative of TTF and 1,3-dithiolane. Correlations of the ionization potentials (i.p.) and several molecular orbital calculations are used in the assignment of the photoelectron spectra of these three compounds. The first five i.p. of TTF and their assignment are as follows: 6.92 (3b1u), 8.67 (2b2g), 9.73 (2b1u), 10.16 (au) and 10.49 eV (b3g). The sixth i.p. at 11.00 eV is tentatively assigned to the 1b2g level. The electronic structure of TTF is important in understanding the crystal packing and band structure of the highly conducting salt, TTF•TCNQ.
