The He I photoelectron spectra of certain MeEHal2 and Me2EHal compounds (E = (N), P, As, Sb; Hal = (F), Cl, Br, J; Me = CH3) are interpreted in terms of a “composite molecule” approach derived for C3vCs systems. Although an “internal standard” is missing here, substituent group-orbitals (nHal, C—H) may be classified with respect to their orientations in space (R, V, T). Ionisation energies are assigned according to this assumption.
PE data of the isoelectronic EMe3/EHal3 compounds and of related molecules (Me2EH, MePH2, CF3PBr2) as well as EHMO calculations with partial inclusion of spin orbit coupling are used to confirm the assignments given for Me2EHal/MeEHal2 series.
Correlations between PE ionisation energies (e.g. nE (IE)) and molecular or atomic properties are critically revised and discussed.
The thermal decomposition of 1,2-diadamantyldioxetane was studied by kinetic and spectroscopic methods. Spectra of the chemiluminescence emitted during the thermally induced decomposition of 1,2-diadamantyldioxetane, tetramethyldioxetane and trimethyldioxetane were obtained and the influence of quenchers and radical-scavengers, and the presence of "heavy atoms" in the surrounding of the emitting species was investigated. The kinetics of the decay mechanism was followed by measuring the time dependence of the chemiluminescence. The influence of radical-scavengers, quenchers and "external heavy atoms" on the kinetics was assessed. Experimental results were discussed in terms of a biradical decay mechanism.
