The Ã(1)A1 ← X̃(1)A1 band system of the propargyl cation (H2C3H(+)) is measured over the 230-270 nm range by photodissociation of mass-selected H2C3H(+)-Ne and H2C3H(+)-N2 complexes in a tandem mass spectrometer. The band origin occurs at 37 618 cm(-1) for H2C3H(+)-Ne and 37 703 cm(-1) for H2C3H(+)-N2. Ground and excited state ab initio calculations for H2C3H(+) using the MCSCF and coupled-cluster (CC) response methods show that the ion has C2v symmetry in the ground X̃(1)A1 and excited Ã(1)A1 states and that the strong vibronic progression with a spacing of 630 cm(-1) is due to the C-C stretch vibrational mode, ν 5.Restricted Access: Metadata Onl
