Electron affinity of radicals

The electron affinity of radicals is considerably greater than the electron affinity of monomers, hence in the presence of monomer" ions, or in the presence of an excess of the primary electron donors, the dimeric radical ions are rapidly converted into dimeric diions,... 

Oxygen Fluorides.—An open-shell CNDO treatment has been employed29 in order to interpret the electronic spectra, ionization potentials, and electron affinities of radicals containing 2, 3, and 4 atoms, including F02 and H02. Raman spectra of 02F2 in CC1F3 have been measured for the first time.30... 

The determination of further electron affinities is not an easy matter it is possible that the electronic equilibrium method could be extended to a few more elements, but at the temperatures involved, molecules and radicals would be decomposed. The only reasonable hope of estimating the electron affinities of radicals would seem to lie in a study of the appearance potential of negative ions, and the determination of their kinetic energies, although it must be borne in mind that a careful search of the mass spectrum of methane has failed to reveal the existence of a CH3(-)ion.

The CURES-EC method was named because it CURES the ELECTRON CORRELATION problem in semi-empirical calculations. This is accomplished by adding multiconfiguration configuration interaction (MCCI) to the wave functions. The acronym CURES-EC stands for configuration interaction or unrestricted orbitals to relate experimental electron affinities to self-consistent field values by estimating electron correlation. Electron affinities of radicals can be obtained from experimental gas phase acidities by calculating C—H bond dissociation...
