Ethenedithione (S=C=C=S): Does It Obey Hund's Rule?

Significantly higher in energy (24 kJ mol⁻¹) than the triplet ground state (³Σ_g⁻) is the ¹Δ_g state of ethenedithione (S=C=C=S), in agreement with Hund's rule. This result was obtained from high-level ab initio calculations. Thus, ethenedithione cannot, as had been proposed, be considered as the first example for the violation of Hund's rule in an equilibrium structure.     

Fluorescence lifetime studies of no a 2Σ+(ν = 5, N = 9), B2Π32(ν = 8, J = 8.5), CwΠ32(ν = 1, J = 8.5), D2Σ+ (ν = 0, N = 5) and D2Σ+(ν = 1, N = 9)

Fluorescence decay profiles of NO excited levels slightly above the dissociation limit have been measured by a single-photon counting technique with nanosecond pulse excitation using an iodine flash lamp. Three iodine atomic lines in the vicinity of 180 nm are found to bring NO molecules into the levels A²Σ⁺(ν = 5, N = 9), B²²Π_{$\text{3}\text{2}$}(ν = 8, J = 8.5), C²Π_{$\text{3}\text{2}$}(ν = 1, J = 8.5), D²Σ⁺(ν = 0, N = 5) and D²Σ⁺(ν = 1, N = 9). Extrapolated zero-pressure lifetimes for single rotational levels are obtained, except for the C state where only a lifetime of ⩽0.4 ns was obtained. Self-quenching rate constants are also determined under higher-pressure conditions. Helium was found to quench the NO A²Σ⁺(ν′ = 5) fluorescence very efficiently.

Synthesis of molecular ferromagnetics [R3R′X]MCr(C2O4)3 (X = N,R = Bun,R′ = Prn,Et, Me; X = P,R = Ph,R′ = Bun; M = Mn,Fe, Co,Ni, Cu)

The synthesis, IR spectra, and the temperatures of the transition into a ferromagnetic state (T _c) of layered ferromagnetics [R₃RX[MCr(C₂O₄)₃ (M = Mn, Fe, Co, Cu, and Ni) with the [Ph₃BuP]⁺, [Bu₃RN]⁺ (R = Pr, Et, and Me) cations capable of subsequently changing the distances between metallooxalate layers have been considered. The temperatureT _c has been found to be independent of the size of the organic cation. It is believed that the determining factors in the transition to a ferromagnetic state are exchange interactions inside the metallooxalate layer.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Cyano-bridged Ln^3＋-Cr^3＋ Binuclear Complexes [Ln（L）x（H2O）y^- Cr（CN）6]·mL·nH2O （Ln=La-Nd,x=5, y=2, m=1 or 2, n=2 or 2.5; Ln-Sm-Dy,Er, x=4, y=3, m=0, n=1.5 or 2.0; L= 2-pyrrolidinone）： Structure,Magnetism and Spin Density Map

In order to shed light upon the nature and mechanism of 4f-3d magnetic exchange interactions, a series of binuclear complexes of lanthanide（3＋） and chromium（3＋） with the general formula [Ln（L）5（H2O）2Cr（CN）6]·mL· nH2O （Ln=La （1）, Ce （2）, Pr （3）, Nd （4）; x=5, y=2, m=1 or 2, n=2 or 2.5; L=2-pyrrolidinone） and [Ln（L）4（H2O）3Cr（CN）6] ·nH2O （Ln=Sm （5）, Eu （6）, Gd （7）, Tb （8）, Dy （9）, Er （10）; x=4, y=3, m=0, n= 1.5 or 2.0; L=2-pyrrolidinone） were prepared and the X-ray crystal structures of complexes 2, 6 and 7 were determined. All the compounds consist of a Ln-CN-Cr unit, in which Ln^3＋ in a square antiprism environment is bridged to an octahedral coordinated Cr^3＋ ion through a cyano group. The magnetic properties of the complexes 3 and 6-10 show an overall antiferromagnetic behavior. The fitting to the experimental magnetic susceptibilities of 7 give g= 1.98, J=0.40 cm^-1, zJ＇= -0.21 cm^-1 on the basis of a binuclear spin system （Scd=7/2, Scr=3/2）, revealing an intra-molecular Gd^3＋-Cr^3＋ ferromagnetic interaction and an inter-molecular antiferromagnetic interaction. For 7 the calculation of quantum chemical density functional theory （DFT）, combined with the broken symmetry approach, showed that the calculated spin coupling constant was 20.3 cm^-1, supporting the observation of weak ferromagnetic intra-molecular interaction in 7. The spin density distributions of 7 in both the high spin ground state and the broken symmetry state were obtained, and the spin coupling mechanism between Gd^3＋ and Cr^3＋ was discussed.

On the Double Salt Formation in the Systems Rb2SeO4=ZnSeO4=H2O andCs2SeO4=ZnSeO4=H2O at 25°C

Summary.  The solubilities in the systems Rb₂SeO₄=ZnSeO₄=H₂O and Cs₂SeO₄=ZnSeO₄=H₂O at 25°C were studied by the method of isothermal decrease of supersaturation. Comparatively wide crystallization fields of the double salts Rb₂Zn(SeO₄)₂ċ6H₂O and Cs₂Zn(SeO₄)₂ċ6H₂O are observed in the solubility diagrams. The double salts form monoclinic crystals which are isostructural with those of the corresponding rubidium and cesium zinc sulfate hexahydrates. TG and TDA measurements indicate that the double salts lose their crystallization water in one step in the temperature intervals of 50–160°C (rubidium salt) and 70–150°C (cesium salt).

Nickel(II) hydride and fluoride pincer complexes and their reactivity with Lewis acids BX3·L (X = H, L = thf; X = F, L = Et2O)

Reaction of the pincer hydride complex ((tBu)PCP)Ni(H) [(tBu)PCP = 2,6-C(6)H(3)(CH(2)P(t)Bu(2))(2)] with BH(3)·thf in THF at 190 K generates the corresponding borohydride complex ((tBu)PCP)Ni(BH(4)). The kinetically stable (but thermodynamically unstable) species undergoes reversible borane loss. The related fluoride complex ((tBu)PCP)Ni(F) shows the same reactivity towards BF(3)·Et(2)O, producing ((tBu)PCP)Ni(BF(4)) as the main final product. The processes were followed through multinuclear NMR spectroscopy and DFT calculations, at the M06//6-31+G(d,p) level of theory.     

Amide‐Directed Tandem C?C/C?N Bond Formation through C?H Activation

The transformation of C? H bonds into other chemical bonds is of great significance in synthetic chemistry. C? H bond‐activation processes provide a straightforward and atom‐economic strategy for the construction of complex structures; as such, they have attracted widespread interest over the past decade. As a prevalent directing group in the field of C? H activation, the amide group not only offers excellent regiodirecting ability, but is also a potential C? N bond precursor. As a consequence, a variety of nitrogen‐containing heterocycles have been obtained by using these reactions. This Focus Review addresses the recent research into the amide‐directed tandem C? C/C? N bond‐formation process through C? H activation. The large body of research in this field over the past three years has established it as one of the most‐important topics in organic chemistry.
