Abstract
- Excitation spectra of the 1H-naphthalene (1-C10H9) and 1D-naphthalene (1-C10H8D) radicals, and their cations, are obtained by laser spectroscopy and mass spectrometry of a skimmed free-jet expansion following an electrical discharge. The spectra are assigned on the basis of density functional theory calculations. Isotopic shifts in origin transitions, vibrational frequencies and ionization energies were found to be well reproduced by (time-dependent) density functional theory. Absolute bond dissociation energies, ionization energies and proton affinities were calculated using high-level quantum chemical methods.
