Abstract

The ground and excited electronic states of MnS−/0 clusters were investigated using CASSCF and NEVPT2 methods. The results show that the ground electronic state of MnS− cluster is 7Σ+ with 6 single electrons distributed in the predominantly 3d and 4s of Mn molecular orbitals, while that of MnS cluster is the 6Σ+. The computational results are used to interpret the photoelectron spectrum of MnS−.
