Slow electron velocity-map imaging photoelectron spectra of the methoxide anion.

High resolution anion photodetachment spectra are presented for the methoxide anion and its fully deuterated counterpart. The spectra were obtained with slow electron velocity-map imaging. Improved electron affinities are determined for CH3O as 1.5690+/-0.0019 eV and for CD3O as 1.5546+/-0.0019 eV. The spectra resolve many features associated with spin-orbit and vibronic coupling that were not seen in previous photodetachment studies. Photoelectron angular distributions taken as a function of detachment wavelength for the ground vibronic state transitions are recorded and are consistent with the removal of a nonbonding, p-type electron localized on the oxygen atom. Several hot bands and sequence bands are observed for the first time, providing insight into the vibrational structure of the methoxide anion. The results are compared to recent calculations of the anion photoelectron spectra that incorporate bilinear coupling terms among the methoxy vibrational modes and are found to be in reasonable agreement.
