Photoelectron spectra of F3SiC2H4Si(CH3)3 molecule using monochromatized synchrotron radiation

A variety of photoelectron spectra for gas phase F₃SiC₂H₄Si(CH₃)₃ molecule have been measured using monochromatized undulator radiation and a hemispherical electrostatic analyzer. Valence photoelectron spectrum shows many peaks for ionization from shallow and deep molecular orbitals in the binding energy region of 9–40 eV. A calculation of ionization energies using the outer valence Green's function method indicates energies in agreement with experimental results below 17.5 eV. Spectra for Si L-shell electron emission show chemical shifts of Si atoms induced from different chemical environments around two Si atoms and also exhibit spin–orbit splitting for 2p photoelectrons. Further photoelectron spectra for C K-shell and F K-shell are discussed in comparison with those of related molecules.     

Single orbital relaxations accompanying core ionization in the isoelectronic series CH4, NH3, H2O,HF and Ne

Single orbital contributions to the total relaxation energy accompanying core ionization are computed by means of non-empirical LCAO MO SCF calculations within the ΔSCF formalism for the isoelectronic series CH₄, NH₃, H₂O, HF and Ne. Individual contributions to the total relaxation energy associated with the valence levels of essentially core-like 2s character are also presented.     

A study on the GVFF of CHF3, CH2F2, and CH3F

The complete GVFF of CHF₃, CH₂F₂, and CH₃F has been calculated from self-consistent-field ab initio energies, using a 4–31 G basis set. The larger part of the interaction force constants is close to those of the best available force fields from experimental data. Only one interaction term in CH₃F and the interaction force constants of the A₁ species in CH₂F₂ differ appreciably from the experimental ones. Using constraints from the ab initio studies we have improved the GVFF of CH₃F and CH₂F₂. It is shown that all comparable stretch-stretch interaction terms are of the same order of magnitude in the three molecules. The sign of all stretch/bend force constants are in accordance with those predicted by the hybrid orbital force field.     

Photoelectron and electronic absorption spectra of SCl2, S2Cl2, S2Br2 and (CH3)2S2

Photoelectron and electronic absorption spectra of SCl₂, S₂Cl₂, S₂Br₂, and (CH₃)₂S₂ have been measured and analyzed. Quantum chemical calculations (CNDO/ 2 and MWH (Mulliken-Wolfsberg-Helmholtz) have been carried out and the electronic structures have been described in terms of molecular orbital theory. The variation in differential photoionization cross-section as a function of incident photon energy and results of MO computations are used to identify ionization bands and assign ground state MO configurations. Suggested ground state electronic structures coupled with computed virtual MO's are used to interpret the visible and near-ultraviolet electronic absorption spectra. The low energy excited states are described as molecular states followed by the initial members of Rydberg series. Calculated oscillator strengths for molecular transitions are in good agreement with those observed experimentally. Quantum defects, δ, for the Rydberg states have been calculated from the Rydberg equation using the adiabatic first ionization potential.     

PMR spin lattice relaxation by reorientational motions of NH3 and CH3 groups in some organic compounds

The spin-lattice relaxation times, T₁, of protons in o, m, p-phenylene-diamine dihydrochlorides C₆H₄(NH₂)₂·2HCl, phenylhydrazinium chloride C₆H₅NHNH₃Cl, hexaethylbenzene C₆(CH₂CH₃)₆, tetrabutylammonium bromide [CH₃(CH₂)₃]₄NBr, iodide [CH₃(CH₂)₃]₄NI, tetraheptylammonium bromide [CH₃(CH₂)₆]₄NBr and iodide [CH₃(CH₂)₆]₄NI powders have been measured between 400 and 100 K at 60MHz. The experimental results have been explained by considering the reorientational motions of ?NH₃⁺ and ?CH₃ groups about C₃ axes and their role of behaving as sinks to rapid spin diffusion of the ring protons of the phenylene and the methylene protons. The observed T₁, minima in all these substances turn out to be the measures of the ratios between the total number of protons and the number of reorienting ?NH₃⁺ or ?CH₃ protons. Therefore it has been concluded that the T₁, minima of ?NH₃⁺ and ?CH₃ groups, when obtainable can indicate their number present in a solid sample.     

Absolute Raman intensities of CH4, CH3D,CH2D2, CHD3, and CD4

Measurements of the absolute vibrational Raman intensities and depolarization ratios for the fundamental and some overtone and combination bands of CH₄, CH₃D, CH₂D₂, CHD₃, and CD₄ are reported. Experimental aspects of these measurements are discussed. The experimental data conform satisfactorily to all isotope intensity sum rules. The measured intensities and depolarization ratios, together with the vibrational potential function for CH₄, make possible the calculation of the four independent parameters of the isotopic invariant quantities $\text{α}{}^{\mathrm{S}}\text{= |}\text{?α}\text{?S}\text{|}$. The results deduced from these agree with all 36 experimentally observed values. Values of electro-optical parameters for the CH bond are calculated and discussed.     

Magnetic susceptibility studies of (CH2)3(NH3)2FeCl2Br2 and (CH2)6(NH3)2FeCl2Br2

The magnetic susceptibility of the layered compounds (CH₂)₃(NH₃)₂FeCl₂Br₂ and (CH₂)₆(NH₃)₂FeCl₂Br₂ has been measured in the range 80 < T < 300 K. The results follow a Curie-Weiss behavior in the range 120 < T < 300 K but are field dependent for T < 120 K. The results are interpreted in terms of a two-dimensional antiferromagnetic interaction which is canted. A comparison with the corresponding pure chloride compounds is given.     

Infrared-microwave double resonance as an aid in assignment of optically pumped submillimetre laser lines: CH2CF2, CH2F2, and CH3OH

Infrared-microwave double resonance has been used to confirm recent assignments of optically pumped submillimeter wave laser lines in CH₂CF₂ and CH₃OH, as well as a tentative assignment of a line in CF₂H₂. Intracavity double resonance signals have also been obtained in CF₂CH₂ using a circular copper waveguide laser.     

The heat capacity of the layer compounds (CH3CH2CH2NH3)2MnCl4 and (CH3CH2CH2NH3)2CdCl4 from 10 K TO 300 K

The heat capacity of the layer compounds tetrachlorobis (n-propylammonium) manganese II and tetrachlorobis (n-propylammonium) cadmium II, (CH₃CH₂CH₂NH₃)₂MnCl₄ and (CH₃CH₂CH₂NH₃)₂CdCl₄ respectively, has been measured over the temperature range 10 K ?T ? 300 K.Two known structural phase transitions were observed for the Mn compound in this temperature region: at T = 112.8 ± 0.1 K (ΔH_t= 586 ± 2 J mol^?1; ΔS_t = 5.47 ± 0.02 J K^?1mol^?1) and at T =164.3 ± (ΔH_t = 496 ± 7 J mol^?1; ΔS_t =3.29 ± 0.05 J K^?1mol^?1). The lower transition is known to be from a monoclinic structure to a tetragonal structure, while the upper is from the tetragonal phase to an orthorhombic one. From comparison with the results for the corresponding methyl Mn compound it is deduced that the lower transition primarily involves changes in H-bonding while the upper transition involves motion in the propyl chain.A new structural phase transition was observed in the Cd compound at T= 105.5 ± 0.1 K (ΔH_t= 1472.3 ± 0.1 J mol^?1; ΔS_t = 13.956 ± 0.001 J K^?1mol^?1), in addition to two transitions that have been observed previously by other techniques. The higher of these transitions(T = 178.7 ± 0.3 K; ΔH_t = 982 ± 4 J mol^?1 ΔS_t = 6.16 ± 0.02 J K^? mol^?1) is known to be between two orthorhombic structures, while the structural changes at the lower transition (T= 156.8 ± 0.2 K; ΔH_t = 598 ± 5 J mol^?1, ΔS_t = 3.85 ± 0.03 J K^?1 mol^?1) and at the new transition are not known. It is proposed that these two transitions correspond respectively to the tetragonal to orthorhombic and monoclinic to tetragonal transitions in the propyl Mn compounds.In addition to the structural phase transitions (CH₃CH₂CH₂NH₃)₂MnCl₄ magnetically orders at t? 130 K. The magnetic contribution to the heat capacity is deduced from the heat capacity of the corresponding diamagnetic Cd compound and is of the form expected for a quasi 2-dimensional Heisenberg antiferromagnet.     

The vacuum ultraviolet spectra of HCN,C2N2, and CH3CN

Quantitative vacuum ultraviolet absorption spectra for HCN, C₂N₂, and CH₃CN have been obtained over the wavelength range 60 nm ? λ ? 160 nm. Where comparison is possible, our measurements of the absorption coefficients for HCN and C₂N₂ are consistent with previous studies. Because of the superior resolution of this work (0.05 nm), vibrational assignments in the valence and Rydberg transitions of HCN have been extended while higher members of the Rydberg series in CH₃CN have been identified.     

Structural characterization,thermal, vibrational properties and molecular motions in perovskite-type diaminopropanetetrachlorocadmate NH3(CH2)3NH3CdCl4 crystal

The work presents a detailed analysis of the sequencing of the structural phase transitions in NH₃(CH₂)₃NH₃CdCl₄ crystal by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray, infrared, far infrared and Raman spectroscopy. DSC studies have shown that in analyzed crystal occurring one reversible continuous phase transition at 375/374 K (on heating/cooling). Observed in Nujol and Fluorolube mulls in the wide temperature range between 296 K and 413 K spectral changes through the structural phase transition can be attributed to an onset of motion of cations. An assignment of some bands due to internal modes has been also proposed.     

Cl35 NQR study of the structural phase transition in (CH3NH3)HgCl3

The Cl³⁵ nuclear quadrupole resonance spectra of (CH₃NH₃)HgCl₃ have been measured between -150°C and + 100°C. The spectra clearly show that a structural phase transition of first order takes place around T_c? 60°C. The transition may be related to a disordering of the CH₃NH₃ groups which are reorienting both above and below T_c. The positive temperature coefficient of the Cl NQR frequency, dv/dT may be also explained by the CH₃NH₃ motion.     

Dichroism of (CH3NH3)2CdCl4 in the farinfrared

The dielectric constant of (CH₃NH₃)₂ CdCl₄ has been measured as a function of temperature in the submillimeter range. Freshly grown samples with a wide domain structure at room temperature show a pronounced dichroism in this spectral range which is caused by the orientation of the molecules in the room temperature orthorhombic phase and their response to the electromagnetic wave.     

A theoretical investigation of the core ionized states of the simple carbenes,CH2, CHF and CF2

Non-empirical LCAO MO SCF computations have been carried out on the lowest energy singlet and triplet states and corresponding core hole states of the simple carbenes, CH₂, CHF and CF₂. An analysis is presented of changes in binding and relaxation energies for the core-ionized species and comparisons are drawn with the corresponding data for the dimers (viz. the appropriate substituted ethylenes). Changes in equilibrium geometries on core ionization have also been investigated and these suggest line broadening of the spectra arising from vibrational excitations accompanying core ionization.     

Synthesis and characterization of a new monophosphate [2,5-(CH3)2C6H3NH3]H2PO4

Chemical preparation, calorimetric studies, crystal structure and spectroscopic investigations are given for a new noncentrosymmetric organic cation monophosphate [2,5-(CH₃)₂C₆H₃NH₃]H₂PO₄. This compound is orthorhombic P2₁2₁2₁ with the following unit-cell parameters: a=5.872(4), b=20.984(3), c=8.465(1) Å, Z=4, V=1043.0(5) Å³ and D_x=1.396 g cm⁻³. Crystal structure has been solved and refined to R=0.048 using 2526 independent reflections. Structure can be described as an inorganic layer parallel to (a,b) planes between which organic groups [2,5-(CH₃)₂C₆H₃NH₃]⁺ are located. Multiple hydrogen bonds connecting the different entities of compound thrust upon three-dimensional network a noncentrosymmetric configuration.     

Microwave spectrum of (CH3)3CCN-SO3

Eight rotational transitions of the complex (CH₃)₃CCN-SO₃ have been recorded using pulsed-nozzle Fourier transform microwave spectroscopy and a series of ab initio calculations has been performed. The complex is a symmetric top with free or nearly free internal rotation of the SO₃ and (CH₃)₃CCN subunits. The nitrogen-sulfur bond distance is determined to be 2.394(19) Å. Calculations at the MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ level/basis, which are in excellent agreement with the experimental results, give a binding energy of 11.0 kcal/mol relative to (CH₃)₃CCN and SO₃. Physical properties of the system, including N-S bond length, N-S-O angle, binding energy, and the degree of electron transfer (obtained from Townes and Dailey analysis of the ¹⁴N nuclear quadrupole coupling constant) are compared with those of similar complexes. The proton affinity of the base is a useful parameter for ordering complexes in the series.     

The heat capacity of the layer compound tetrachlorobis (methylammonium) manganese—II (CH3NH3)2MnCl4, from 10 to 300k

The heat capacity of the layer compound, tetrachlorobis (methylammonium) manganese II, (CH₃NH₃)₂MnCl₄, has been measured over the range 10K <T<300K. In this region, two structural phase transitions have been observed previously by other techniques: one transition is from a monoclinic low temperature (MLT) phase to a tetragonal low temperature (TLT) phase, and the other is from TLT to an orthorhombic room temperature (ORT) phase. The present experiments have shown that the lower transition (MLT→TLT) occurs at T = 94.37±0.05K with ΔH_t = 727±5 J mol^?1 and ΔS_t = 7.76±0.05 J K^?1 mol^?1, and the upper transition (TLT→ORT) takes place at T = 257.02±0.07K with ΔH_t = 116±1J mol^?1 and ΔS_t = 0.451±0.004 J K^?1mol^?1. These results are discussed in the light of recent measurements on (CH₃NH₃)₂CdCl₄, and also with regard to a recent theoretical model of the structural phase transitions in compounds of this type.In addition to the structural phase transitions, (CH₃NH₃)₂MnCl₄ also undergoes magnetic ordering at T < 150K. The magnetic component to the heat capacity, as deduced from a corresponding states comparison of the heat capacity of the present compound with that of the Cd compound, is shown to be consistent with the behaviour expected for a quasi 2-dimensional Heisenberg antiferromagnet.

Geometric shielding corrections for total cross section calculations of electron scattering by CH4, C2H6, C2H3F3, C2H4, C2F4, C2Cl4 and C2Cl2F2 from 30–5000?eV

To quantify the changes in the geometric shielding effect in a molecule as the incident electron energy varies, an empirical fraction, which represents the total cross section contributions of shielded atoms in a molecule at different energies, is presented. Using this empirical fraction, the total cross sections for electron scattering by CH₄, C₂H₆, C₂H₃F₃, C₂H₄, C₂F₄, C₂Cl₄ and C₂Cl₂F₂ are calculated over a wide energy range from 30 to 5000 eV by the additivity rule model at the Hartree-Fock level. The quantitative total cross sections are compared with those obtained by experiment and other theories where available. Good agreement is attained above 100 eV.
