FC(O)Br has been synthesized, and its IR spectrum in the gas phase and isolated in an Ar matrix, as well as, its Raman spectrum in the solid state at -196 degrees C has been analyzed. Its molecular structure has been determined and its UV has been measured. FC(O)Br and FC(O)Cl has been photodissociated in an argon matrix at 17 K with a 193 nm laser. The photolysis produces CO and XF which recombine to form CO/XF complexes. The formation of complexes are followed by the shift of the normal vibration modes with respect to CO and XF isolated in argon matrix. In the case of FC(O)Br, three isomers are identified, OC...BrF, OC...FBr, and CO...BrF, whereas for FC(O)Cl only one isomer is observed, OC...ClF. High level quantum chemical calculations are used to help the assignment of the different isomers.
