Photoelectron Spectra and Molecular Properties. 132. Trifluoromethylsulfane and Derivatives F₃CSX (X ? CF₃, Cl, Br, I) The He(I) photoelectron spectra of trifluoromethylsulfane F₃CSH and its derivatives F₃CSX (X ? CF₃, Cl, Br, I) are assigned by Koopmans' correlations, IE = ?ε, with MNDO eigenvalues, by radical cation state comparison and based on resolved vibrational fine structures, which can' be discussed by MNDO FORCE calculations. The spin/orbit splitting in F₃CSI can be approximated by additional ITEREX-85 calculations. Gasphase thermolysis of the trifluoromethylhalogensulfanes F₃CSX at 10^?4 mbar yields decomposition temperatures, which decrease from X ? Cl to I, and as fragmentation products of presumably radical intermediates, in addition to the respective halogens X₂ and F₂C?S, also F₃CX as well as S₂ and CS₂ (X ?Cl, Br) are PE spectroscopically detected.
