The He(Iα) photoelectron (PE) spectra of tris(perfluorocyclobuta)benzene 4(F)3,3,4,4,7,7,8,8,11,11,12,12-Dodecafluorotetracyclo[8.2.0.02,5.06,9]dodeca-1,5,9-triene, tris(perfluorocyclopenta)benzene 5(F)1,1,2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,9,9-Octadecafluoro-2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9-octahydro-1H-trindene., tetrakis(perfluorocyclobuta)cyclooctatetraene 6(F)3,3,4,4,7,7,8,8,11,1l,l2,l2,l5,15,16,16-Hexadecafluoropentacyclo[12.2.0.02,5.06,9.010,13]hexadeca-1,5,9,13-tetraene., and of tetrakis(perfluorocyclopenta)cyclooctatetraene 7(F)1,1,2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,9,9,10,10,11,11,12,12-Tetracosafluoro-1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12-dodeca-hydrotetracyclopenta[a,c,e,g]cyclooctene. are reported. A tentative assignment of the PE spectra is derived by empirical correlation with those of relevant reference compounds. The results suggest that 6(F) retains the D4h-conformation in the gas phase, i.e. A conformation with a planar cyclooctatetraene ring, as observed in the crystal. All four compounds exhibit a sharp increase of their first ionization energies, relative to the corresponding parent hydrocarbons, due to the perfluoro effect.
