Dissociative photoionization mass spectrometry has been used to measure the PhCO+ appearance energies for several benzoyl compounds. Based on these threshold measurements, an experimental 298 K heat of formation of 738.8 ± 3.3 kJ mol−1 is obtained for the benzoyl cation. The experimental results are supported by high-level ab initio calculations.

Experimental results and high-level quantum chemical ab initio calculations of the static polarizability α=α(ω=0)) of the cadmium 1S0 state are still in marked disagreement. Here we analyze this discrepancy by using experimentally determined dipole oscillator strength distributions (DOSD). It will be shown that within this procedure the experimentally determined static polarizability α0 will shift from 49.7± 1.6 au to considerably lower values. We now conclude an experimentally determined polarizability of α0 = 47.5 ± 2.0 au in much better agreement with the latest calculations of α0~ 46 au. Keywords: cadmium, polarizability, DOSD

In this study we investigate the dissociative photoionization of molecular hydrogen H2, addressing the influence of autoionizing states and nuclear motion on the photoelectron dynamics. Experimental results are compared with ab initio calculations.

A configurational assignment of the isomeric methylglyoxal bisdimethylhydrazones derived from the 2-ethoxypropenal precursor has been performed based on experimental measurements and high-level ab initio calculations of 1J(C,C) and 1J(C,H) couplings. The results reveal the marked stereochemical dependence upon the orientation of the lone pairs of both nitrogen atoms in different isomers. Methylglyoxal bisdimethylhydrazone is shown to exist in a mixture of the EE and ZE isomers (ca. 75:25), both of which adopt predominant s-trans conformations with minor (up to 8°) out-of-plane deviations.

High level ab initio methods are employed to study the addition of methanol to the simplest Criegee intermediates and its methylated analogue. Kinetic rate constants over a range of temperatures are computed and compared to experimental results.
