Anion ZEKE-spectroscopy of the weakly bound iodine water complex

Zero kinetic electron energy photodetachment spectroscopy of I(-).ovrhdot.H(2)O and I(-).ovrhdot.D(2)O has been performed from 27 660 to 28 500 cm(-1) and from 27 660 to 35 900 cm(-1), respectively. The I(-).ovrhdot.D(2)O spectral data and theoretical studies resulted in a reassignment of earlier anion-ZEKE spectra of iodide water ( Bassmann , C. ; et al. Int. J. Mass Spectrom. Ion Processes 1996 , 159 , 153 ). In opposite to the I(-).ovrhdot.H(2)O, the I(-).ovrhdot.D(2)O spectrum reveals a regular progression of the iodine-water van der Waals stretching mode and a short progression of even quanta of the van der Waals rocking mode. A rough estimation delivers dissociation thresholds of the anionic and of the lower and the upper spin-orbit component of the neutral van der Waals complex. A high resolution ZEKE spectrum of the van der Waals stretching mode (     «
