Abstract
The Ag+-furan complex was generated using laser vaporization combined with a supersonic molecular beam. A photo-induced charge transfer with an exclus ive furan cation formation was observed via the photodissociation technique . The photofragment spectrum of Ag+-furan was measured and the threshold of the photodissociative charge transfer determined. The upper limit on the A g+-furan bond strength was derived to be 28.1 kcal/mol. (C) 2000 Elsevier S cience B.V. All rights reserved.
