UV Spectroscopic Studies of Cold Alkali Metal Ion–Crown Ether Complexes in the Gas Phase

Thomas Rizzo, Oleg Boyarkine, Yoshiya Inokuchi

We report UV photodissociation (UVPD) spectra of dibenzo-18-crown-6 (DB18C6) complexes with alkali metal ions (Li+, Na+, K+, Rb+, and Cs+) in a cold, 22-pole ion trap. All the complexes show a number of vibronically resolved bands, but the vibronic structu ...
