The ionization energy is a fundamental property that is relevant to charge transport in organic semiconductors. We report adiabatic ionization energies (AIEs) of heptacene at 6.21 and 7.20 eV for the X̃+B2g and Ã+Au states, respectively, as the next larger member of the acene series using mass- and isomer-selective double imaging photoelectron photoion coincidence spectroscopy. The X̃+ state energy decreases monotonically with an increase in size within the homologous series of acenes and approaches an asymptotic limit [AIE(polyacene) = 5.94 ± 0.06 eV] based on a fit with an exponential decay function. As byproducts of heptacene formation from cycloreversion of diheptacenes, 5,18-, 7,16-, and 6,17-dihydroheptacene can be detected, and their AIE is similar to that of their largest acene subunit (anthracene and tetracene, respectively), in very good agreement with computational treatments.
