✦ Synopsis

The 384 d photoelectron spectrum of borazine is given. and the ionization potentials compared nith previously cnlculntcd vnlues and \vith those found by an IhFDO calculation_ The purpose of this letter is to present the 584 A (21.22 ev) photoelectron spectrum of borazine B3N3H6, and to compare the experimental ionization potentials with previously calculated values and with ones we have calculated using the INDO method. Boyd et al. [l] have reported the orbital energies and charge densities in borazine calculated by the Hiickel MO. the BEEM-n and the SAVE-CNDO methods, and Davies [2] has carried out calculations by the CNDO-2 method on all the valence electrons of borazine, in which a minimum energy was obtained as a function of the B-N, B-H and N-H distances.
