13. N2 reaction (eq 3) must involve an unprecedented intramolecular rearrangement. It is possible that the wrong isomer was synthesized. This hypothesis, however, is not consistent with the NMR. Nevertheless, the 2-methylcyclohexanone enolate anion and the 6-methylcyclohexanone enolate anion have very similar principal moments of inertia. Therefore, if the photodetachment spectrum were indeed measured for the 2-methylcyclohexanone enolate anion instead of the 6-methylcyclohexanone enolate anion, the arguments that have been made regarding the shortened lifetimes of the dipole-bound state would remain the same.

24. Previously obtained results from our research group show a dipolebound state at 817 nm. Although that spectrum does not match up perfectly with the data presented here, the presence of the resonance at 817 nm gives us additional confidence that we are correct in our assignment of the electron affinity. The absence of a dipole-bound state resonance in the spectrum reported here may be due to the low signal-to-noise ratio in this experiment.
