High-resolution UV photoelectron spectroscopy of diatomic halogens

Diatomic halogens are studied with UV photoelectron spectroscopy using new techniques to preserve high resolution even for reactive species. For the first time vibrational structure is observed on the ²Π_u,i (i = ^1/2,^3/2) states (F₂⁺, Cl₂⁺), the ²Σ_g⁺ states (F₂⁺, Cl₂⁺) and the Br₂⁺ (²Π_{u,$\text{3}\text{2}$}) state. On the ²Π_u,i states (F₂⁺, Cl₂⁺, Br₂⁺) spin-orbit splitting is resolved. Indications for a small potential barrier on the F₂⁺ (²Π_u,i) state for large internuclear distances are found. A new value for the spin-orbit splitting of the Cl₂⁺(²Π_g) state is presented (= ?725 cm^?1). The complementary nature of optical emission and photoelectron spectroscopy for small ions is demonstrated leading to a more complete picture of the F₂⁺ (²Π_u,i) and Cl₂⁺ (²Π_u,i) ionic states.

Interactions of Eu3+(aq) 7F, 5D1 and 5D0 levels with nitrate and inner-sphere (EuNO2+3)* exciplex formation

Steady-state and transient photokinetic and spectroscopic measurements on aqueous Eu(NO₃)₃ show different affinities of ⁷F, ⁵D₁ and ⁵D₀ Eu³⁺_aq towards nitrate ion. This may be rationalised by differences in the inner- and outer-shell hydration structures between ⁵D_O, ⁵D₁ Eu³⁺(_aq) and ⁷F Eu³⁺_(aq). Nitrate penetration into the inner-shell of Eu³⁺_(aq), and inner-coordination (EuNO²⁺₃)^* exciplex formation, occur solely in the long-lived ⁵D_O level of Eu³⁺_(aq).     

Ternäre Thallium-Indium-Sulfide: Eine Zusammenfassung

Ternary Thallium Indium Sulfides: A Summary Combined thermal and X-Ray analyses in the ternary system Thallium—Indium—Sulfur show, that the two binary sections Tl₂S? In₂S₃ and TlS? InS contain ternary compounds with unique crystal structures. The chemical formulas of these ternary solids are TlIn₅S₈, TlIn₃S₅, TlInS₂ and Tl₃InS₃ for the section Tl₂S? In₂S₃ and TlIn₅S₆ as well as Tl₃In₅S₈ (metastable high temperature phase) for the section TlS? InS respectively. With TlIn₅S₇ an additional ternary solid could be detected, which is located outside the two sections. It is derived from the binary mixed valence compound In₆S₇ by complete substitution of In⁺ by Tl⁺. The following ionic formulations make the mixed valence character of the ternary Thallium—Indium-Sulfides reasonable: TlIn₅S₈ = Tl⁺(In³⁺)₅(S^2?)₈, TlIn₃S₅ = Tl⁺ (In³⁺)₃(S^2?)₅, TlInS₂ = Tl⁺In³⁺(S^2?)₂, Tl₃InS₃ = (Tl⁺)₃In³⁺ · (S^2?)₃, TlIn₅S₆ = Tl⁺([In₂]⁴⁺)₂In³⁺ (S^2?)₆, Tl₃In₅S₈ = 4 × [(Tl⁺)_0,75 · (In⁺)_0,25In³⁺(S^2?)₂], TlIn₅S₇ = Tl⁺[In₂]⁴⁺ (In³⁺)₃(S^2?)₇. All compounds contain Tl⁺-ions in a characteristic “lone pair coordination” of S^2? ions. Indium atoms however occur with the oxidation numbers +2 (formal, In₂ dumb bells with covalent In? In bonding) and +3 (with In³⁺ in tetrahedral and octahedral coordination of S^2?). Chemical preparation, crystal chemistry and general properties of the ternary solids are discussed, summarized and compared to each other.

Quadrupole mass spectrometric study of positive ions from RF plasmas of pure CH4, CH4/H2, and CH4/Ar systems

Quadrupole mass spectrometry has been employed to characterize the ionic species in the discharges of pure CH₄, CH₄/H₂, and CH₄/Ar systems. For pure methane, the major positive ions in the discharge at low pressure (e.g., 0.15 torr) are CH ₃ ⁺ , C₂H ₃ ⁺ , CH ₂ ⁺ , C₂H ₂ ⁺ , CH ₄ ⁺ , C₂H ₄ ⁺ , and C₂H ₅ ⁺ at high pressure (e.g., 0.5 torr) the major ions are CH ₃ ⁺ , C₂H ₃ ⁺ , C₂H ₅ ⁺ , C₃H ₃ ⁺ , C H₃H ₇ ⁺ , C₄H ₇ ⁺ , C₅H ₇ ⁺ , C₆H ₅ ⁺ , and C₇H ₇ ⁺ . The relative abundances of C₁ ions decrease with increasing pressure, whereas those of higher-order ions increase with pressure. For 5% CH₄ + 95% H₂ mixture, in addition to those sampling from the pure methane plasma at the lower pressure, H _n ⁺ ions have also been detected. For 5% CH₄ +95% Ar mixture, the principal ions are CH ₃ ⁺ , CH ₂ ⁺ , CH⁺, CH ₅ ⁺ , Ar⁺, and ArH⁺; the ions containing more than two carbon atoms are negligible. In these discharges, the CH ₃ ⁺ and C₂H ₃ ⁺ are the most important positive ions in C₁ and C₂ ions, respectively. The ions detected are believed to come from the sheath between the electrode and the luminous plasma, and have high kinetic energy. An ion-molecule reaction mechanism is proposed which can well explain the observed main features of ionic products.Died June 1, 1991.     

Spin-adducts of radicals ·P(O)(OPri)2 and ·CMe3 with pyrrolidino[60]fullerenes studied by ESR spectroscopy

The addition of the ^·Bu^t (R¹) and ^·P(O)(OPrⁱ)₂ (R²) radicals to pyrrolidino[60]fullerenes C₆₀CH₂NMeCHX (X = C₆H₄N(CH₂CH₂Cl)₂, 2,6-(Bu^t)₂C₆H₂OH, PhC₆H₄, and indol-3-yl) was studied by ESR spectroscopy. The rate constants of R¹ radical addition to these compounds and dimerization of spin-adducts of the R¹ radicals with pyrrolidino[60]fullerenes were determined. Pyrrolidino[60]fullerenes manifest considerably higher reactivity toward the R¹ radicals than fullerene C₆₀ and methanofullerenes C₆₀CX¹X² (X¹ = X² = CO₂Et; X¹ = CO₂Me, X² = OP(OMe)₂, X¹ = X² = OP(OEt)₂).     

[Co(g5‐Me5C5)(g3‐tBu2PPCH–CH3)] aus [Co(g5‐Me5C5)(g2‐C2H4)2] und tBu2P–P=P(Me)tBu2

Coordination Chemistry of P‐rich Phosphanes and Silylphosphanes. XVII [1] [Co(g⁵‐Me₅C₅)(g³‐^tBu₂PPCH–CH₃)] from [Co(g⁵‐Me₅C₅)(g²‐C₂H₄)₂] and ^tBu₂P–P=P(Me)^tBu₂ [Co(η⁵‐Me₅C₅)(η³‐^tBu₂PPCH–CH₃)] 1 is formed in the reaction of [Co(η⁵‐Me₅C₅)(η²‐C₂H₄)₂] 2 with ^tBu₂P–P 4 (generated from ^tBu₂P–P=P(Me)^tBu₂ 3 ) by elimination of one C₂H₄ ligand and coupling of the phosphinophosphinidene with the second one. The structure of 1 is proven by ³¹P, ¹³C, ¹H NMR spectra and the X‐ray structure analysis. Within the ligand ^tBu₂P¹P²C¹H–CH₃ in 1 , the angle P1–P2–C1 amounts to 90°. The Co, P1, P2, C1 atoms in 1 look like a „butterfly”︁. The reaction of 2 with a mixture of ^tBu₂P–P=P(Me)^tBu₂ 3 and ^tBu–C?P 5 yields [Co(η⁵‐Me₅C₅){η⁴‐(^tBuCP)₂}] 6 and 1 . While 6 is spontaneously formed, 1 appears only after complete consumption of 5 .     

SiH+5 and the proton affinity of monosilane

Tandem mass spectrometric studies show that SiH⁺₅ is formed in bimolecular reactions of SiH₄ and NH⁺₂, C₂H⁺₃, C₂H⁺₆ and C₃H⁺₈ ions. The dependence of the reaction cross sections on ion energy indicates the formation of SiH⁺₅ from NH⁺₂, C₂H⁺₃, and C₂H⁺₆ to be exothermic reactions, while formation from C₃H⁺₈ is endothermic. Using known thermochemical data, these facts permit the assignment of 150 and 156 kcal/mole to the lower and upper limits of the proton affinity of monosilane.     

Effect of inorganic anions on the titanium dioxide-based photocatalytic oxidation of aqueous ammonia and nitrite

In this study, we investigated the effects of four inorganic anions (Cl⁻, SO₄²⁻, H₂PO₄⁻/HPO₄²⁻, and HCO₃⁻/CO₃²⁻) on titanium dioxide (TiO₂)-based photocatalytic oxidation of aqueous ammonia (NH₄⁺/NH₃) at pH ∼ 9 and ∼10 and nitrite (NO₂⁻) over the pH range of 4–11. The initial rates of NH₄⁺/NH₃ and NO₂⁻ photocatalytic oxidation are dependent on both the pH and the anion species. Our results indicate that, except for CO₃²⁻, which decreased the homogeneous oxidation rate of NH₄⁺/NH₃ by UV-illuminated hydrogen peroxide, OH scavenging by anions and/or direct oxidation of NH₄⁺/NH₃ and NO₂⁻ by anion radicals did not affect rates of TiO₂ photocatalytic oxidation. While HPO₄²⁻ enhanced NH₄⁺/NH₃ photocatalytic oxidation at pH ∼ 9 and ∼10, H₂PO₄⁻/HPO₄²⁻ inhibited NO₂⁻ oxidation at low to neutral pH values. The presence of Cl⁻, SO₄²⁻, and HCO₃⁻ had no effect on NH₄⁺/NH₃ and NO₂⁻ photocatalytic oxidation at pH ∼ 9 and ∼10, whereas CO₃²⁻ slowed NH₄⁺/NH₃ but not NO₂⁻ photocatalytic oxidation at pH ∼ 11. Photocatalytic oxidation of NH₄⁺/NH₃ to NO₂⁻ is the rate-limiting step in the complete oxidation of NH₄⁺/NH₃ to NO₃⁻ in the presence of common wastewater anions. Therefore, in photocatalytic oxidation treatment, we should choose conditions such as alkaline pH that will maximize the NH₄⁺/NH₃ oxidation rate.     

The kinetics of free radicals generated by IR laser photolysis. II. Reactions of C2(X 1Σ+g), C2(a 3Πu), C3(X̄ 1Σ+g) and CN(X 2Σ+) with O2

The 300 K reactions of O₂ with C₂(X ¹Σ⁺_g), C₂(a ³ Π_u), C₃(X? ¹Σ⁺_g) and CN(X ²Σ⁺), which are generated via IR multiple photon dissociation (MPD), are reported. From the spectrally resolved chemiluminescence produced via the IR MPD of C₂H₃CN in the presence of O₂, CO molecules in the a ³Σ⁺, d ³Δ_i, and e ³Σ^? states were identified, as well as CH(A ²Δ) and CN(B ²Σ⁺) radicals. Observation of time resolved chemiluminescence reveals that the electronically excited CO molecules are formed via the single-step reactions C₂(X ¹Σ⁺_g, a ³Π_u) + O₂ → CO(X ¹Σ⁺ + CO(T), where T denotes are electronically excited triplet state of CO. The rate coefficients for the removal of C₂(X ¹Σ⁺_g) and C₂(a ³Π_u) by O₂ were determined both from laser induced fluorescence of C₂(X ¹Σ⁺_g) and C₂(a ³Π_u), and from the time resolved chemiluminescence from excited CO molecules, and are both (3.0 ± 0.2)10^?12 cm³ molec^?1 s^?1. The rate coefficient of the reaction of C₃ with O₂, which was determined using the IR MPD of allene as the source of C₃ molecules, is <2 × 10^?14 cm³ molec^?1 s^?1. In addition, we find that rate coefficients for C₃ reactions with N₂, NO, CH₄, and C₃H₆ are all < × 10^?14 cm³ molec^?1 s^?1. Excited CH molecules are produced in a reaction which proceeds with a rate coefficient of (2.6 ± 0.2)10^?11 cm³ molec^?1 s^?1. Possible reactions which may be the source of these radicals are discussed. The reaction of CN with O₂ produces NCO in vibrationally excited states. Radiative lifetime of the ā ²Σ state of NCo and the ā ¹Π_u(000) state of C₃ are reported.     

Synthesis and structures of the η5-C5H5Cl(CO)2W-η1,η5-(PPh2)C5H4(CO)2Fe-η1,η5-C5H4Mn(CO)3 and MeSi[C5H4(CO)2Fe-η1,η5-C5H4Mn(CO)2PPh3]3 complexes

The metallation of the η⁵-C₅H₅(CO)₂Fe-η¹,η⁵-C₅H₄Mn(CO)₃ complex with BuⁿLi (THF, ?78 °C) followed by the treatment of the lithium derivative with Ph₂PCl afforded the η⁵-Ph₂PC₅H₄(CO)₂Fe-η¹,η⁵-C₅H₄Mn(CO)₃ complex. The reaction of the latter with η⁵-C₅H₅(CO)₃WCl in the presence of Me₃NO produced the trinuclear complex η⁵-C₅H₅Cl(CO)₂W-η¹,η⁵-(Ph₂P)C₅H₄(CO)₂Fe-η¹,η⁵-C₅H₄Mn(CO)₃. The structure of the latter complex was established by IR, UV, and 1H and ³¹P NMR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. The reaction of MeSiCl₃ with three equivalents of LiC₅H₄(CO)₂Fe-η¹,η⁵-C₅H₄Mn(CO)₂PPh₃ gave the hexanuclear complex MeSi[C₅H₄(CO)₂Fe-η¹,η⁵-C₅H₄Mn(CO)₂PPh₃]₃.     

Constructing novel red-emitting Ba2Y0.8Eu0.2NbO6:Mn4+ phosphors for multi-type luminescent thermometers and high-security anti-counterfeiting films

To date, luminescent materials have been preferably used for non-contact optical thermometers. In this manner, novel red-emitting Ba₂Y_0.8Eu_0.2NbO₆:Mn⁴⁺ (BYEN:Mn⁴⁺) phosphors were designed for multi-type non-contact luminescent thermometers based on the dual-emission states and temperature-dependent lifetime (TDL) models. In the temperature range of 303–483 K, the sensing sensitivities based on the dual-emission states of (⁵D₀→⁷F₂, ²E_g→⁴A_2g) and (⁵D₀→⁷F₁, ²E_g→⁴A_2g) were estimated. Especially, the maximum absolute sensing sensitivity (S_a) was found to be about 0.1558 K^-1 for the BYEN:0.007Mn⁴⁺ phosphor based on the ⁵D₀→⁷F₁ and ²E_g→⁴A_2g positions. This phosphor also exhibited good relative sensing sensitivity (S_r) (0.0186 K^-1) based on the ⁵D₀→⁷F₂ and ²E_g→⁴A_2g states. Besides, the relative sensing sensitivities (S_R) at ⁵D₀→⁷F₁ and ²E_g→⁴A_2g transitions were estimated to be 0.0034 and 0.0194 K^-1, respectively with the help of the TDL technique. In the light of these results, novel red-emitting Ba₂Y_0.8Eu_0.2NbO₆:Mn⁴⁺ phosphors are expected to be a potentially attractive candidate for applications in multi-type luminescent thermometers. Finally, a novel unique polydimethylsiloxane film exhibiting tricolor-luminescent emissions was introduced and further suggested for high-security anti-counterfeiting.     

Transition-metal mediated heteroatom removal by reactions of FeL+ [L=O,C4H6, c-C5H6, c-C5H5, C6H6, C5H4(=CH2)] with furan,thiophene, and pyrrole in the gas phase

Reactions of Fe⁺ and FeL⁺ [L=O, C₄H₆, c-C₅H₆, C₅H₅, C₆H₆, C₅H₄(=CH₂)] with thiophene, furan, and pyrrole in the gas phase by using Fourier transform mass spectrometry are described. Fe⁺, Fe(C₅H₅)⁺, and FeC₆H ₆ ⁺ yield exclusive rapid adduct formation with thiophene, furan, and pyrrole. In addition, the iron-diene complexes [FeC₄H ₆ ⁺ and Fe(c-C₅H₆)⁺], as well as FeC₅H₄(=CH₂)⁺ and FeO⁺, are quite reactive. The most intriguing reaction is the predominant direct extrusion of CO from furan by FeC₄H₆ ⁺, Fe(c-C₅H₆)⁺, and FeC₅H₄(=CH₂)⁺. In addition, FeC₄H ₆ ⁺ and Fe(c-C₅H₆)⁺ cause minor amounts of HCN extrusion from pyrrole. Mechanisms are presented for these CO and HCN extrusion reactions. The absence of CS elimination from thiophene may be due to the higher energy requirements than those for CO extrusion from furan or HCN extrusion from pyrrole. The dominant reaction channel for reaction of Fe(c-C₅H₆)⁺ with pyrrole and thiophene is hydrogen-atom displacement, which implies D^O(Fa(N₅H₅)⁺-C₄H₄X)>D^O(Fe(C₅H₅)⁺-H)=46±5 kcal mol^?1. D^O(Fe⁺-C₄H₄S) and D^O(Fe⁺-C₄H₅N)=D^O(Fe⁺-C₄H₆)=48±5 kcal mol^?1. Finally, 55±5 kcal mol^?1=D^O(Fe⁺-C₆H₆)>D^O(Fe⁺-C₄H₄O)>D^O(Fe⁺-C₂H₄)=39.9±1.4 kcal mol^?1. FeO⁺ reacts rapidly with thiophene, furan, and pyrrole to yield initial loss of CO followed by additional neutral losses. D^O(Fe⁺-CS)>D^O(Fe⁺-C₄H₄S)≈48±5 kcal mol^?1 and D^O(Fe⁺-C₄H₅N)≈48±5 kcal mol^?1>D^O(Fe⁺-HCN)>D^O(Fe⁺-C₂H₄)=39.9±1.4 kcal mil^?1.     

Reactions of Bromine Fluoride Dioxide,BrO2F,for the Generation of the Mixed‐Valent Bromine Oxygen Cations Br3O4+ and Br3O6+

A reliable synthesis of unstable and highly reactive BrO₂F is reported. This compound can be converted into BrO₂⁺SbF₆^?, BrO₂⁺AsF₆^?_, and BrO₂⁺AsF₆^??2 BrO₂F. The latter decomposes into mixed‐valent Br₃O₄?Br₂⁺AsF₆^? with five‐, three‐, one‐, and zero‐valent bromine. BrO₂⁺ H(SO₃CF₃)₂^? is formed with HSO₃CF₃. Excess BrO₂F yields mixed‐valent Br₃O₆⁺OSO₃CF₃^? with five‐ and three‐valent bromine. Reactions of BrO₂F and MoF₅ in SO₂ClF or CH₂ClF result in Cl₂BrO₆⁺Mo₃O₃F₁₃^?. The reaction of BrO₂F with (CF₃CO)₂O and NO₂ produces O₂Br‐O‐CO‐CF₃ and the known NO₂⁺Br(ONO₂)₂^?. All of these compounds are thermodynamically unstable.     

Negative ion formation in compounds relevant to SF6 decomposition in electrical discharges

Dissociative and nondissociative electron attachment in the electron impact energy range 0–14 eV are reported for SOF₂ SOF₄, SO₂F₂, SF₄, SO₂, and SiF₄ compounds which can be formed by electrical discharges in SF₆. The electron energy dependences of the mass-identified negative ions were determined in a time-of-flight mass spectrometer. The ions studied include F^– and SOF ₂ ^–* from SOF₂; SOF ₃ ^– and F^– from SOF₄; SO₂F ₂ ^–* , SO₂F^–, F ₂ ^– , and F^– from SO₂F₂; SF ₄ ^–* and F^– from SF₄; O^–, SO^–, and S^– from SO₂; and SiF ₃ ^– and F^– from SiF₄. Thermochemical data have been determined from the threshold energies of some of the fragment negative ions. Lifetimes of the anions SOF ₂ ^–* , SO₂F ₂ ^–* , and SF ₄ ^–* are also reported.     

The use of ferrocene in organometallic synthesis: A two-step preparation of cyclopentadienyliron acetonitrile and phosphine cations via photolysis of cyclopentadienyliron tricarbonyl or arene cations

UV photolysis of [CpFe^II(CO)₃]⁺ PF6₆^? (I) or [CpFe^II(η⁶-toluene)]⁺ PF₆^?? (II) in CH₃CN in the presence of 1 mole of a ligand L gives the new air sensitive, red complexes [CpFe^II(NCCH₃)₂L]⁺PF₆^? (III, L = PPh₃; IV; L = CO; VIII, L = cyclohexene; IX, L = dimethylthiophene) and the known air stable complex [CpFe^II(PMe₃)₂(NCMe)]⁺ PF₆^? (V). The last product is also obtained by photolysis in the presence of 2 or 3 moles of PMe₃. In the presence of dppe, the known complex [CpFe^II (dppe)(NCCH₃)]⁺ (XI) is obtained. Complex III reacts with CO under mild conditions to give the known complex [CpFe(NCCH₃)(PPh₃)CO]⁺ PF₆^? (X). UV photolysis of I in CH₃CN in the presence of 1-phenyl-3,4-dimethylphosphole (P) gives [CpFe^IIP₃]⁺ PF₆^? (XII); UV photolysis of II in CH₂Cl₂ in the presence of 3 moles of PMe₃ or I mole of tripod (CH₃C(CH₂Ph₂)₃) provides an easy synthesis of the known complexes [CpFe^II(PMe₃)₃]⁺ PF₆^? (VII) or [CpFe^IIη³-tripod]⁺ PF₆^t- (XIII). Since I and II are easily accessible from ferrocene, these photolytic syntheses provide access to a wide range of piano-stool cyclopentadienyliron(II) cations in a 2-step process from ferrocene.     

The Reaction of Ozone with the Hydroxide Ion: Mechanistic Considerations Based on Thermokinetic and Quantum Chemical Calculations and the Role of HO4− in Superoxide Dismutation

The reaction of OH^? with O₃ eventually leads to the formation of ^.OH radicals. In the original mechanistic concept (J. Staehelin, J. Hoigné, Environ. Sci. Technol. 1982 , 16, 676–681), it was suggested that the first step occurred by O transfer: OH^?+O₃→HO₂^?+O₂ and that ^.OH was generated in the subsequent reaction(s) of HO₂^? with O₃ (the peroxone process). This mechanistic concept has now been revised on the basis of thermokinetic and quantum chemical calculations. A one‐step O transfer such as that mentioned above would require the release of O₂ in its excited singlet state (¹O₂, O₂(¹Δ_g)); this state lies 95.5 kJ mol^?1 above the triplet ground state (³O₂, O₂(³Σ_g^?)). The low experimental rate constant of 70 M ^?1 s^?1 is not incompatible with such a reaction. However, according to our calculations, the reaction of OH^? with O₃ to form an adduct (OH^?+O₃→HO₄^?; ΔG=3.5 kJ mol^?1) is a much better candidate for the rate‐determining step as compared with the significantly more endergonic O transfer (ΔG=26.7 kJ mol^?1). Hence, we favor this reaction; all the more so as numerous precedents of similar ozone adduct formation are known in the literature. Three potential decay routes of the adduct HO₄^? have been probed: HO₄^?→HO₂^?+¹O₂ is spin allowed, but markedly endergonic (ΔG=23.2 kJ mol^?1). HO₄^?→HO₂^?+³O₂ is spin forbidden (ΔG=?73.3 kJ mol^?1). The decay into radicals, HO₄^?→HO₂^.+O₂^.?, is spin allowed and less endergonic (ΔG=14.8 kJ mol^?1) than HO₄^?→HO₂^?+¹O₂. It is thus HO₄^?→HO₂^.+O₂^.? by which HO₄^? decays. It is noted that a large contribution of the reverse of this reaction, HO₂^.+O₂^.?→HO₄^?, followed by HO₄^?→HO₂^?+³O₂, now explains why the measured rate of the bimolecular decay of HO₂^. and O₂^.? into HO₂^?+O₂ (k=1×10⁸ M ^?1 s^?1) is below diffusion controlled. Because k for the process HO₄^?→HO₂^.+O₂^.? is much larger than k for the reverse of OH^?+O₃→HO₄^?, the forward reaction OH^?+O₃→HO₄^? is practically irreversible.
