Photoelectron (PE) spectra of ethylene and vinylene carbonates and thiocarbonates as well as of methylene trithiocarbonate and some open-chain derivatives are reported.
The low energy bands, well separated in the unsaturated compounds, are assigned to lone pair and π type ionizations. The assignment is based on comparison of PE spectra, modified CNDO calculations, and sulfur Κβ emission spectra. The pronounced substituent effects due to which the first ionization potential varies from 8.4 eV to 11.1 eV are discussed.
The photoelectron (PE) spectra of dicyano methane and of its dimethyl derivative are tentatively assigned on the basis of a simple MO model. The interactions defined therein between the two cyano groups as well as with the R2C-framework can be parametrized using the PE data. Thus the hyperconjugation πCN/πCR₂ is estimated to amount to 1.7 eV in both compounds. Hyperconjugative effects in methane derivatives H3CX and H2CX2 with X = Br, Cl and CN are compared.
The reversible one-electron insertion into mono- and 1,4-di-substituted benzene derivatives is favored by dialkoxyboron and especially by dialkylboron groups. The assumption that it should be the symmetric e2u benzene molecular orbital which is occupied in the resulting radical anions can be supported by comparison of ESR coupling constants.
