Ultravoilet photoelectron spectroscopy has been employed to exmamin the valence electronic structure of 5‐fluorouracil, 5‐chlorouracil, 5‐bromouracil, and 5‐iodouracil. Photoelectron bands associted with the three highest π orbitals and the two oxygen atom lone‐pair orbitals were assigned by a comparison to similar bands observed in the photoelectron spectrum of uraciul. Bands arising from the halogen atom lone‐pair orbitals were assigned by comparing the present results with photoelectron spectra measured for halobenzenes, and by considering the linear dependence of halogen atom lone‐pair ionization potentials upon halogen atom electronegativities. The present spectroscopic results have been compared with results from studies of association constants of 5‐halouracil–adenine complexes. This examination in dicates that the complex association constants incresase as the ionization potentials of the highest occupied π orbital and the halogen atom lone‐pair orbitals of th halouracils decrease.

Ultraviolet photoelectron spectra of CT6, one of the fullerene family of compounds, have been measured with a synchroton radiation light source. The photoemission spectral onset is 1.3 eV below the Fermi level, which is equal to that of Cs4 but is about 0.5 eV smaller than that of C6c or CrO. The re
Ultraviolet photoelectron spectra of higher fullerenes CT8 and Cgg are measured with a synchrotron radiation light source. The spectral intensity oscillates and the peak positions shift, when the incident photon energy is changed. The hv=20 eV spectrum of CT8 resembles that of CT6, which suggests th
