The 1B1, 1B2, 1A1, 1A2, 3A′(2B2), and 2A1 states of the 1,1-difluoromethane ion studied using multiconfiguration second-order perturbation theory

The 1²B₁(X²B₁), 1²B₂, 1²A₁, 1²A₂, 2²B₂, and 2²A₁ states of the ion were studied using CASPT2 and CASSCF methods. Calculations suggest that one should consider the 3²A′ state instead of 2²B₂. The CASPT2 T₀ calculations predict the energy ordering of 1²B₁(X²B₁), 1²B₂, 1²A₁, 1²A₂, 3²A′, and 2²A₁, which is in line with the experimental results by Pradeep and Shirley. The CASPT2 T₀ values for the 1²B₂, 1²A₂, 3²A′, and 2²A₁ states are close to the experimental values. The F-loss and H-loss dissociation processes were studied at the CASPT2//CASSCF level. The energy levels of low-lying states of are compared.     

Dibenzo[b, e]-7,7,8,8-tetraneopentyl- and dibenzo[b, e]-7,7,8,8-tetraisopropyl-7,8-disilabicyclo[2.2.2]octa-2,5-dienes: interaction with tetracyanoethylene and transition metal chlorides

Dibenzo[b,e]-7,7,8,8-tetraalkyl-7,8-disilabicyclo[2.2.2]octa-2,5-dienes (1: R = ^tBuCH₂; 2: R = ⁱPr) were prepared by the reaction of ClR₂SiSiR₂Cl with lithium anthracenide in 1,2-dimethoxyethane (DME) at room temperature. The structure of 1 was determined by X-ray crystallography. Crystal data for 1: monoclinic, rC2/c, A = 12.941(2), B = 14.601(1), C = 35.109(6) Å, β = 94.957(7)°, V = 6609(2) ų, Z= 8, R = 0.048, R_w = 0.053 for 4037 reflections. Compounds 1 and 2 show the bathochromic shift of ¹L_a and ¹L_b bands in UV spectra and exhibit considerably low oxidation potentials due to effective σ-π conjugation. Compounds 1 and 2 form charge-transfer complexes with tetracyanoethylene (TCNE). In the case of 1, the charge-transfer complex (1: TCNE = 2: 1) could be isolated as crystals and the structure was determined by X-ray crystallography. Crystal data for the 1-TCNE complex: monoclinic, C2/c, A= 10.267(2), b = 36.077(4), C = 20.022(4) Å, β = 100.680(8)°, V = 7288(2) ų, Z = 4, R = 0.045, R_w = 0.077 for 4120 reflections. The action of transition metal chlorides on 2 resulted in [4+2] cycloreversion to form ClⁱPr₂SiSiⁱPr₂Cl and anthracene.

A single-crystal X-ray diffraction study on the complex [{C₆H₄(CH₂NMe₂)-2}A H(COMe)}] reveals similar structural features to related metallalactam complexes of platinum(II) and palladium(II). When a CDCl₃ solution of the complex [{C₆H₃(CH₂NMe₂)-2-(OMe)-5}A HCN}] is allowed to stand for 18 h, a novel dimerisation reaction occurs, giving the insoluble product [{C₆H₃(CH₂NMe₂)-2-(OMe)-5}Au{N(CO₂Et)C(O)CHCN}]₂·2CDCl₃, characterised by an X-ray structure determination. The dimer contains an eight-membered A

The geometry, vibrational frequencies, thermochemistry, quadrupole moments and electronic structure of C2Na2: Comparison with C2Li2, C2H2, C2F2 and C2Cl2

The electronic structure of Na₂C₂ is studied using ab initio electronic structure methods and is compared to the companion molecule Li₂C₂. Both the linear D_∞h and planar structures are minima on the ground state potential surface with the planar D_2h conformation being the lowest energy form, similar to Li₂C₂. At the CCSD(t) level the planar form is more stable that the linear by 11.2 kcal/mol as compared with 7.34 kcal/mol for Li₂C₂. Both molecules are significantly ionic. The vibrational frequencies, atomization energy at 0 K, D₀, and the standard enthalpy of formation, are calculated and compared to those of Li₂C₂ as well as HCCH, FCCF and ClCCCl. We find D₀ and to be 331.1 and 84.92 kcal/mol for Li₂C₂ and 298.3 and 93.25 kcal/mol for Na₂C₂. We calibrate these by calculating the same quantities for HCCH, FCCF and ClCCCl.

Below the phase transition temperature, the structure is fully ordered.

N-2-(4-picolyl)-N′-2-chlorophenylthiourea, 4PicTu2Cl, monoclinic, P2₁/c, a=10.068(5), b=11.715(2), β=96.88(4)°, and Z=4; N-2-(6-picolyl)-N′-2-chlorophenylthiourea, 6PicTu2Cl, triclinic, P-1, a=7.4250(8), b=7.5690(16), c=12.664(3) Å, =105.706(17), β=103.181(13), γ=90.063(13)°, V=665.6(2) ų and Z=2 and N-2-(6-picolyl)-N′-2-bromophenylthiourea, 6PicTu2Br, triclinic, P-1, a=7.512(4), b=7.535(6), c=12.575(4) Å, a=103.14(3), β=105.67(3), γ=90.28(4)°, V=665.7(2) ų and Z=2. The intramolecular hydrogen bonding between N′H and the pyridine nitrogen and intermolecular hydrogen bonding involving the thione sulfur and the NH hydrogen, as well as the planarity of the molecules, are affected by the position of the methyl substituent on the pyridine ring. The enthalpies of fusion and melting points of these thioureas are also affected. ¹H NMR studies in CDCl₃ show the NH′ hydrogen resonance considerably downfield from other resonances in their spectra.

Hydrothermal synthesis, structural characterisation and magnetic behaviour of hybrid complexes of N-(phosphonomethyl)iminodiacetate

Two new compounds containing multidentate chelating organic residues of N-(phophonomethyl)iminodiacetic acid (H₄pmida), [M(pyr)(H₂O)₄][M₂(Hpmida)₂(pyr)(H₂O)₂]·2(H₂O) (where pyr=pyrazine and M=Co²⁺ or Ni²⁺ for I and II, respectively) have been synthesised and structurally characterised by single-crystal and powder X-ray diffraction, elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy, thermal analysis and solid-state ³¹P MAS NMR. The compounds contain discrete binuclear anionic [M₂(Hpmida)₂(pyr)(H₂O)₂]²⁻ units in which one pyrazine ligand bridges two M²⁺ cations which are completely trapped inside three five-membered chelate rings formed by the Hpmida³⁻ ligands. These moieties close pack in the ac plane via a series of strong and highly directional O–HO hydrogen bonds leading to the formation of anionic layers. One-dimensional cationic coordination polymers are placed in-between and strongly hydrogen-bonded to these layers. The magnetic properties of these two materials are also reported.     

Preferential oxidation of CO in excess H2 over the CeO2/CuO catalyst： Effect of initial support

Three series of CeO2/CuO samples were prepared by impregnation method and characterized by XRD, N2adsorption-desorption, temperatureprogrammed reduction(TPR), XPS and TEM techniques. In comparison with the samples prepared with CuO as initial support, the samples with Cu(OH)2as initial support have higher reducibilities and smaller relative TPR peak areas, and also larger specific surface areas at calcination temperatures of 400℃–600℃. As a result, Cu(OH)2is better than CuO as initial support for preferential oxidation of CO in excess H2(CO-PROX). The best catalytic performance was achieved on the sample calcined at 600℃ and with an atomic ratio of Ce/Cu at 40%. XPS analyses indicate that more interface linkages Ce-O-Cu could be formed when it was calcined at 600℃. And the atomic ratio of Ce/Cu at 40%led to a proper reducibility for the sample as illustrated by the TPR measurements.

Compound 5 is monoclinic. P2₁/n, Z=4, a=9.572(2), b=14.050(3), c=13.556(3) Å, β=90.76(3)°. The primary bonding in the Ph₃Te⁺ cation in each salt is a trigonal AX₃E pyramid with Te---C bond lengths in the range 2.095(8)–2.14(2) Å and the bond angles 94.1(6)–100.9(5)°. The weak TeCl (1–3) and TeO (5) secondary interactions expand the coordination sphere. In 1 and 2 the cation shows a trigonal bipyramidal AX₃YE coordination with one primary Te---C bond and the shortest secondary TeCl contact in axial positions and the two other Te---C bonds and the lone-pair in equatorial positions. The cation in 3 shows a distorted octahedral AX₃Y₃E environment and that in 5 is a more complex AX₃Y₃Y′₂ arrangement. In both latter salts the structure is a complicated three-dimensional network of cations and anions.     

Ion pairing, H-bonding, and π–π interactions in copper(II) complex-organo-networks derived from a proton-transfer compound of the 1,10-phenanthroline-2,9-dicarboxylic acid

The one-pot reaction between the novel proton transfer compound (pydaH₂)²⁺(phendc)²⁻, LH₂, and Cu(II) afforded the compounds (pydaH)₂[Cu(phendc)₂]·10H₂O, 1, and (pydaH)₂[Cu(phendc)(phendcH)]₂·5H₂O, 2, where pyda=2,6-diaminopyridine, and phendcH₂=1,10-phenanthroline-2,9-dicarboxylic acid. The single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis of 1 and 2 revealed that these are two novel self-assembled 3D Cu(II) complex-organo-networks, in which (pydaH)⁺ ions and [Cu(phendc)₂]²⁻ or complex units are held together by ion pairing, H-bonding, and π–π interactions. Magnetic measurements over the temperature range 1.8–310 K revealed no significant magnetic coupling between Cu(II) centers in 1 or 2.

The mechanism for the formation of the species 2 has been investigated initially by ³¹P NMR.
