Rotational coherence spectroscopy ~RCS!, via time-correlated single photon counting, and two-color resonant two-photon ionization ~R2PI! time-of-flight mass spectrometry, have been used to characterize fluorene–(water)1,2[FL– (H2O)1,2] van der Waals clusters generated in supersonic jets. Rotational coherence traces have been obtained at excitation energies corresponding to several resonant features in the S1<-S0 R2PI spectra of FL– (H2O)1,2 . RCS simulations and diagonalization of the moment of inertia tensor have been used to obtain S1 excited state rotational constants and structures of FL– (H2O)1,2 that are consistent with …-s
