N2 - Adiabatic ionization energies and vibrational frequencies were measured for the yttrium complexes with one and two dimethyl ether ligands. Compared to the metal atom, the ionization energies of the 1:1/1:2 complexes shift to red by 12 147/20 212 cm-1 with O(CH3)2 and 12 172/20 269 cm-1 with O(CD3)2. The energy shifts indicate a large charge effect on the metal-ligand binding and a differential binding for the first and second ligand coordinations. The measurements of the Y+-O, C-O, and C-O-C vibrations show that the complexes are formed through the yttrium binding to the oxygen and that the ether remains unbroken upon coordination.
