The equilibrium geometry, adiabatic electron affinity, harmonic vibrational frequencies, and infrared intensities of 1,4,6,9-Tetra chlorinated dibenzo-$\rho$-dioxin anion have been studied using B3LYP method. The local minimum conformation is found to be twisted form with $D_2$ symmetry. The predicted adiabatic electron affinity is 0.54 eV. The predicted inversion barrier between twisted and planar conformers was 0.9 kcal/mol, thus we expect that experimentally observed structure seems to be planar. the characteristic IR band of 1,4,6,9-TCDD anion appears at 1510 $cm^4$, which is a benzene ring skeleton vibration mode related with CaCb and C2C3 bond. this characteristic band could be sued for identication of 1,4,6,9-TCDD anion.
