Oxotris(oxalato)niobate(V) as counterion in cobalt(II) spin-crossover systems
2016
Abstract This work is devoted to the investigation of the thermally induced spin-crossover behavior from a high-spin state (HS, S = 3/2) at higher temperatures to a low-spin phase (LS, S = 1/2) at lower temperatures of the six-coordinate cobalt(II) complex in the compound [Co(terpy)2]3[NbO(C2O4)3]2·3CH3OH·4H2O (2). The crystal structure of 2 together with that of its counterion as tetraphenylarsonium(V) salt (AsPh4)3[NbO(C2O4)3]·9H2O (1) are also included. The spin-crossover process was followed by the thermal variation of the χMT product between 2.0 and 400 K under the warming mode, with the LS configuration being achieved at T ⩽ 200 K and the LS → HS interconversion being incomplete at 4…
Revision of Na 2 A1Σ+u state molecular constants by polarization labeling spectroscopy
1997
ABSTRACT. This paper contains the analysis of the A1 of Na2 based on the data obtained from thepolarization labeling spectroscopy experiment on the A' —X' transition. A set of Dunham coefficients is derived, which describes the A state in the wide range of v and J 126) quantum numbers and reproduces the positions of unperturbed rotational lines in the A-X band system towithinO.1 cm'.1. INTRODUCTION.We report' new analysis of the A' state based on the data obtained from polarization labelingspectroscopy (PLS) experiment"2, based on V-type optical—optical double resonance scheme, on the 1 : ' ; band system of sodium dimer. The diatomic alkali molecules, with their simple electronic configurat…
Spin Crossover and Long-Lived Excited States in a Reduced Molecular Ruby.
2020
Abstract The chromium(III) complex [CrIII(ddpd)2]3+ (molecular ruby; ddpd=N,N′‐dimethyl‐N,N′‐dipyridine‐2‐yl‐pyridine‐2,6‐diamine) is reduced to the genuine chromium(II) complex [CrII(ddpd)2]2+ with d4 electron configuration. This reduced molecular ruby represents one of the very few chromium(II) complexes showing spin crossover (SCO). The reversible SCO is gradual with T 1/2 around room temperature. The low‐spin and high‐spin chromium(II) isomers exhibit distinct spectroscopic and structural properties (UV/Vis/NIR, IR, EPR spectroscopies, single‐crystal XRD). Excitation of [CrII(ddpd)2]2+ with UV light at 20 and 290 K generates electronically excited states with microsecond lifetimes. This…
Electronic Structure and Optical Properties of the Intrinsically Chiral 16-Electron Superatom Complex [Au20(PP3)4]4+
2014
The recently solved crystal structure of the [Au20(PP3)4]Cl4 cluster (PP3: tris(2-(diphenylphophino)ethyl)phosphine) is examined using density functional theory (DFT). The Au20 core of the cluster is intrinsically chiral by the arrangement of the Au atoms. This is in contrast to the chirality of thiolate-protected gold clusters, in which the protecting Au-thiolate units are arranged in chiral patterns on achiral cores. We interpret the electronic structure of the [Au20(PP3)4]Cl4 cluster in terms of the superatom complex model. The 16-electron cluster cannot be interpreted as a dimer of 8-electron clusters (which are magic). Instead, a superatomic electron configuration of 1S(2) 1P(6) 1D(6) …
