Journal Article
Mensa-Bonsu, G., Wilson, M. R., Tozer, D. J., & Verlet, J. R. (2019). Photoelectron spectroscopy of para-benzoquinone cluster anions. The Journal of Chemical Physics, 151(20), Article 204302. https://doi.org/10.1063/1.5132391

The photoelectron spectra of para-benzoquinone radical cluster anions, (pBQ)n− (n = 2–4), taken at hv = 4.00 eV are presented and compared with the photoelectron spectrum of the monomer (n = 1). For all clusters, a direct detachment peak can be ident... Read More about Photoelectron spectroscopy of para-benzoquinone cluster anions.

Photoelectron spectroscopic study of I−·ICF3: a frontside attack SN2 pre-reaction complex (2018)
Journal Article
Mensa-Bonsu, G., Tozer, D. J., & Verlet, J. R. (2019). Photoelectron spectroscopic study of I−·ICF3: a frontside attack SN2 pre-reaction complex. Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics, 21(26), 13977-13985. https://doi.org/10.1039/c8cp06593d

Photodetachment and 2D photoelectron spectra of the mass-selected I−·CF3I complex are presented together with electronic structure calculations. Calculations show that the I− is located at the iodine side of CF3I. Vertical and adiabatic detachment en...
