Notes:
The ionization energies of four [1,2,4,5]tetrazinodi(heteroarenes) of C2h Symmetry have been measured by PE spectroscopy. It is found that the first ionization energy is very low (6.2 eV to 6.4 eV) and rather independent of the size and/or topology of the molecules. This is explained, by comparison with the results of a simple MO treatment, as being due to strong localization of the HOMO (of Au symmetry) on the [1,2,4,5]tetrazino moiety of the molecules. The PE-spectroscopic data are shown to be in agreement with the UV/VIS-and electrochemical-oxidation data published previously.
