Abstract

Several fluorobenzene radical cations were generated by vacuum UV photolysis of the parent fluorobenzenes in solid Ar matrix, and their laser fluorescence excitation spectra were studied. Their spectra show a well-resolved vibronic structure, which appears to be essentially unperturbed by the solid. Vibrational analysis provides strong evidence for the occurrence of a Jahn-Teiler distortion in the degenerate 2E1g ground slate of C6F6+.
