Ti+(CO2)(2)Ar and Ti+(CO2)(n) (n=3-7) complexes are produced by laser vaporization in a pulsed supersonic expansion. The ion complexes of interest are each mass-selected in a timeof-flight spectrometer, and studied with infrared photodissociation spectroscopy. For each complex, a sharp band in the CO stretching frequency region is observed, which confirms the formation of the OTi+CO(CO2)(n-1) oxide-carbonyl species. Small OTi+CO(CO2)(n-1) complexes (n <= 5) exhibit CO stretching and antisymmetric CO2 stretching vibrational bands that are blue-shifted from those of free CO and CO2. The experimental observations indicate that the coordination number of CO and CO2 molecules around TiO+ is five. Evidence is also observed for the presence of another electrostatic bonding Ti+(CO2)(2) structural isomer for the Ti+(CO2)(2)Ar complex, which is characterized to have a bent OCO-Ti+-OCO structure stabilized by argon coordination.
