Magnetic exchange interaction in clusters of orbitally degenerate ions. I. Effective Hamiltonian
2001
Abstract A new effective Hamiltonian is reported for the kinetic exchange between two arbitrary terms 2S A +1 Λ A and 2S B +1 Λ B that can be ground or excited in octahedrally coordinated transition metal ions. This Hamiltonian is applicable to both homo- and heterometallic clusters. For the homonuclear cluster the resonance part of the effective Hamiltonian is also presented for the case when one of the ions is excited. The operator part of the exchange Hamiltonian contains symmetry adapted products of the cubic irreducible tensors acting in orbital spaces ΛA and ΛB and scalar product of site spin operators. The parameters of the Hamiltonian are defined by the relevant intercenter transfer…
Studies on supramolecular gel formation using DOSY NMR
2015
Herein, we present the results obtained from our studies on supramolecular self-assembly and molecular mobility of low-molecular-weight gelators (LMWGs) in organic solvents using pulsed field gradient (PFG) diffusion ordered spectroscopy (DOSY) NMR. A series of concentration-dependent DOSY NMR experiments were performed on selected LMWGs to determine the critical gelation concentration (CGC) as well as to understand the behaviour of the gelator molecules in the gel state. In addition, variable-temperature DOSY NMR experiments were performed to determine the gel-to-sol transition. The PFG NMR experiments performed as a function of gradient strength were further analyzed using monoexponential…
Dimeric resorcinarene salt capsules with very tight encapsulation of anions and guest molecules
2015
Crystallization of N-cyclohexyl ammonium resorcinarene triflate from methanol results in a dimeric capsule capable of trapping two triflate anions and two methanol molecules within a 341 A3 cavity while with 1,4-dioxane as a guest it forms a new larger dimeric capsule with volume of 679 A3 encapsulating four 1,4-dioxane and four water molecules, resulting in packing coefficients of 0.75 and 0.67, respectively.
Theoretical spectroscopic parameters of the alkali monofluorides LiF, NaF and KF
1992
Abstract Multireference configuration interaction and second-order perturbation theory are used to determine accurate spectroscopic parameters for the ground state of the alkali monofluorides from LiF to KF. Systematic saturation of the spdf subspaces of the atomic basis sets for the electron affinity of fluorine and the ionization potential of the metals have been shown to be more efficient than for the approximate dissociation energies in the molecule. the calculated rotational and vibrational constants and transitions for the three systems show excellent agreement with the expeirmental data.
Detailed Analysis of Packing Efficiency Allows Rationalization of Solvate Formation Propensity for Selected Structurally Similar Organic Molecules
2018
In structural study of seven bile acids it was identified that their propensity for solvate formation is directly related to the packing efficiency of the unsolvated phases: low packing index, voids, and unsatisfied hydrogen bonding lead to extensive solvate formation, whereas efficient packing leads to the opposite. This was determined to be caused by the presence of OH group attached to carbon C12. Solvate formation was determined to provide a noticeable improvement in the packing efficiency for compounds having ansolvates with inefficient packing.
As(III)/Sb(III)/Bi(III)–halide distances and stretching vibrations. An application of the Varshni relationship upon hypervalent group 15 compounds
1998
Abstract A Varshni treatment between stretching frequencies and bond lengths is given for 16 heterocycles of the types Hal–M(SCH 2 CH 2 ) 2 X and Hal–M(CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 ) 2 X (M=As/Sb/Bi, Hal=Cl/Br/I, X=O, S, NR). The intensities of the Raman emissions for the M–Hal bonds increase in the following order: Cl≪Br −1/2 , decrease in the following order: Cl>Br≫I. Practically, the Varshni constants are used to estimate the complementary quantity, stretching frequency or bond length, in 35 cases.
MCSCF determination of the KO molecule ground state.
1992
Abstract Ab initio calculations at the MC/CASSCF level are used to determine in an accurate way the nature and position of the ground state of the KO molecule. The characteristic 2 Π and 2 Σ + alkali monoxide ionic states show a theoretical energy separation of about 0.04 eV, which produces opposite results by authors in favour of one or the other symmetry. We test the basis set dependence and active space dependence of the calculated energetical ordering of both states, with an extensive study of the active orbitais selection; the results show a ground state of 2 Σ + symmetry.
Electrodes for REMPI spectroscopy in static gases and calculation of REMPI intensities: Application to molecular oxygen
1994
Resonance-enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI) of 16 O 2 X 3 Σ g − (ν = 0) through (3sσ g ) d'Π g (ν = 0) by using (2 + 1) one-colour photons is reported. This REMPI process, already observed and analysed by other authors at low pressure and low rotational temperature with mass spectrometry detection, is used to test our first detector of ionizations. Experimental difficulties have led to the design of an original arrangement of electrodes to collect electrons at room temperature and 1 Torr pressure of static molecular oxygen. A calculated spectrum is compared with the observed REMPI spectrum. The calculation uses the polarizability tensor and takes into account the competition between i…
Hypervalent tin-organic compounds: Vibrational spectroscopy in the solid as a tool for structure determination
1997
Abstract A full set of IR- and Raman spectra down from 600 cm1 has been determined and assigned for 60 penta- or hexacoordinated tin-compounds in the groups RSn(CH2CH2CH2)3N (R = Cl, Br, I, Me), RR'Sn(MCH2CH2)2X (R,R′ = Cl, Br, I, Me, Ph, M = CH2 S; X = NMe, O, S), RPh2SnCH2CH2CH2NMe2 (R = Cl, Br, I) and RMe2Sn—CHD—COOMe (R = F, Cl, Br, I, Me). In these hypervalent compounds an approach of the donor atom X to the central atom tin outlines a ‘path’ of nucleophilic attack from a tetrahedron to a trigonal bipyramid. Along this ‘reaction path’ the bond lengths of the axial ligand increase continuously while the bond lengths of the equatorial ligands slightly decrease. The number of similar hype…
Rational linkage of magnetic molecules using click chemistry
2015
Established CuAAC click reactions are used for the first time to assemble magnetic molecules to an extended molecular arrangement. This novel synthetic approach is expected to be a general approach to link SMMs as an important precondition to realize quantum computing.
