摘要
We report our joint computational and anion photoelectron spectroscopic study of indole-water cluster anions, indole(H2O)(1,2)(-). The photoelectron spectra of both cluster anions show the characteristics of dipole-bound anions, and this is confirmed by our theoretical computations. The experimentally determined vertical electron detachment (VDE) energies for indole(H2O)(1)(-) and indole(H2O)(2)(-) are 144 meV and 251 meV, respectively. The corresponding theoretically determined VDE values for indole(H2O)(1)(-) and indole(H2O)(2)(-) are 124 meV and 255 meV, respectively. The vibrational features in the photoelectron spectra of these cluster anions are assigned as the vibrations of the water molecule. Published by AIP Publishing.
