DATAFILE: (CH3)5C6H_Bolovinos(1982)_298K_140.3-295.0nm.txt
NAME: pentamethylbenzene
FORMULA: (CH3)5C6H
AUTHOR(YEAR): Bolovinos(1982)
T: 298K
λ: 140.3-295.0nm
BIBLIOGRAPHY: A. Bolovinos, J. Philis, E. Pantos, P. Tsekeris, and G. Andritsopoulos, "The methylbenzenes vis-a-vis benzene. Comparison of their spectra in the valence shell transition region", J. Mol. Spectrosc. 94, 55-68 (1982); DOI: 10.1016/0022-2852(82)90293-4
COMMENTS: Absorption measurement using a Rank-Hilger 776 monochromator, a McPherson hydrogen light source, a dual-beam sample chamber, and a detection system (spectral resolution 0.25 nm)

Extinction coefficients (in L mol-1 cm-1) vs. photon energy plotted in Fig. 1i have been digitized and converted to absorption cross sections (conversion factor 3.8235×10-21) vs. wavelength

A preliminary report deals with the Rydberg series observed in the region 7-9 eV (138-177 nm):
