Abstract

The MCD (magnetic circular dichroism) of CH3l, CH3Br and CH3Cl has been studied in the spectral region of the n → σ* continuum (3500-1700 Å). The MCD spectrum of CH3I makes it possible to resolve the three excited states contributing to the continuum. The peak energies and the oscillator strengths of the components are obtained.
