    Abstract:
    The tetraoxo pertechnetate anion (TcO4(-)) is of great interest for nuclear waste management and radiopharmceuticals. To elucidate its electronic structure and to compare with that of its lighter congener MnO4(-), the photoelectron and electronic absorption spectra of MnO4(-) and TcO4(-) are investigated with density functional theory (DFT) and ab initio wave function theory (WFT). The vertical electron detachment energies (VDEs) of MnO4(-) obtained with the CR-EOM-CCSD(T) method are in good agreement with the lowest two experimental VDEs; the differences are less than 0.1 eV, representing a significant improvement over the IP-EOM-CCSD(T) result in the literature. Combining our CCSD(T) and CR-EOM-CCSD(T) results, the first five VDEs of TcO4(-) are estimated between 5 and 10 eV with an estimated accuracy of about ±0.2 eV. The vertical excitation energies are determined by using TD-DFT, CR-EOM-CCSD(T), and RAS-PT2 methods. The excitation energies and the assignments of the spectra are analyzed and partly improved. They are compared with reported SAC-CI results and available experimental data. Both dynamic and nondynamic electron correlations are important in the ground and excited states of MnO4(-) and TcO4(-). Nondynamical correlations are particularly relevant in TcO4(-) for reliable prediction of excitation energies. In TcO4(-) one Rydberg state interlaces but does not mix with the valence excited states, and it disappears in the condensed phase.
