Abstract
Four electronic systems with origin bands at 759.5, 559.3, 476.3, and 385.5 nm are detected in a 6 K neon matrix following deposition of mass-selected protonated fluoranthene C16H11+ produced from a reaction of neutral vapor and ethanol in a hot-cathode ion source. Two cationic isomers are identified as the carriers of these band systems. The 559.3, 476.3, and 385.5 nm absorptions are assigned to 4,3,2 1A′ ← X 1A′ transitions of isomer E+ (γ−) and the 2 1A′ ← X 1A′ system at 759.5 nm is of isomer C+ (α−) of protonated fluoranthene on the basis of theoretical predictions. The electronic spectrum of E+ was also recorded in the gas phase using a resonant 1 + 1 two-photon excitation–dissociation technique in an ion trap at vibrational and rotational temperatures of 10 K. The 3,2 1A′ ← X 1A′ transitions have origin band maxima at 558.28 ± 0.01 and 474.92 ± 0.01 nm. Both the 2 1A′ and 3 1A′ excited states have a distinct vibrational pattern with lifetimes on the order of 1 ps.
