Spectroscopic investigation of para-dichlorobenzene-water cluster cations by IR and VIS photodissociationShamik Chakraborty, •Alexander Patzer, Anita Lagutschenkov, Judith Langer, and Otto Dopfer — Institut für Optik und Atomare Physik, Technische Universität Berlin, Hardenbergstrasse 36, 10623 Berlin, Germany

Spectroscopy utilizing the process of photodissociation is a powerful approach to record infrared and visible spectra of molecular ions and cluster ions.

This contribution presents the infrared spectra of para-dichlorbenzene-water cluster cations [pDCB+-(H2O)n; n=1,2] in the wavenumber range 2800 cm−1 - 3900 cm−1 and the visible spectra ranging from 19000 cm−1 to 21000 cm−1. The experimentally observed IR spectra are compared to quantum chemical calculations carried out at the B3LYP/6-311++G** level of theory. The IR spectrum of pDCB+-(H2O)2, produced in an electron ionization source, suggests the existence of two types of isomers under the conditions employed in this experiment. In the first type, a water dimer is bound to the pDCB+ ion, whereas in the second type the water is attached as two individual H2O molecules. The visible spectrum of the pDCB+-H2O B←X transition provides support for the conclusion that the examined ionic clusters are unreactive with respect to nucleophilic substitution [1].
