Chlorocarbonyl trifiuoromethanesulfonate, CF3SO3C(O)Cl was prepared by heterogeneous reaction of gaseous CIC(O)SCl with CF3SO3Ag. The electronic structure and photoionization dissociation were investigated by Hel photoelectron spectroscopy (PES) and photoionization mass spectroscopy (PIMS). The assignments of the bands in the PES were reasonably supported by previous studies on analogous molecules, as well as the outer-valence Green's function (OVGF) calculations. The experimental first vertical ionization potential of CF3SO3C(O)Cl was determined to be 12.36 eV, which was assigned to the ionization mainly from the oxygen lone pair orbital. It shows three peaks: CICO+ (63, 65), CF3+(69) and CF3SO2+ (133) in the spectrum of PIMS, with the dominant features being the CICO+ and CF3+ peaks. According to the calculated bond dissociation energies, the dissociation process was also discussed. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
