Two color resonant mass analyzed threshold ionization (MATI) spectroscopy was applied in order to investigate the ionic properties of the structural isomers of trichlorobenzene (TCB) above the ionization threshold. For the first time, vibrational spectra of the Cl-35(3) and (Cl2Cl)-Cl-35-Cl-37 isotopomers of 1,2,3-, 1,2,4- and 1,3,5-trichlorobenzene cations in their electronic ground state have been measured via different S-1 intermediate states by mass analyzed threshold ionization (MATI) spectroscopy. Additionally ab initio calculations at DFT (density functional theory) and TDDFT (time-dependent density functional theory) have been performed to compare experimental findings with theory. From the MATI spectra the adiabatic ionization energies of the three isomers 1,2,3-TCB, 1,2,4-TCB and 1,3,5-TCB could be determined to 74289 +/- 6 cm(-1), 72779 +/- 6 cm(-1) and 74900 +/- 100 cm(-1), respectively. Several vibrational modes of the isotopomers have been assigned by comparison of the experimental and theoretical results.
