Abstract
The readily sublimable tert-butoxides of lithium, sodium and potassium have therefore been investigated by photoelectron spectroscopy at 150-180 o C in the gaseous state, in which they are present as oligomeric aggregates. According to MNDO calculations the degeneracy of the HOMO of monomeric LiOC(CH 3 ) 3 is lifted during transition to the dimer and hexamer, as is also demonstrated in the PE spectrum of the lithium tert-butoxide vapor consisting of hexamers
