Abstract
The resonance energies for electron attachment to the chloromethanes are evaluated by means of bound and continuum multiple scattering Xα calculations. The results closely reproduce the experimental electron transmission spectroscopy data and confirm their previous assignment. Electron transmission and dissociative attachment spectra of monochloroalkanes are also reported, in order to obtain information on the effects of branching at the substituted carbon atom and of alkyl chain length on the resonance and chlorine anion production energies.Keywords
