The resonance Raman effect of uranyl chloride in dimethyl sulfoxide

A study was carried out of the resonance Raman scattering spectra of uranyl chloride (UO2Cl2) in dimethyl sulfoxide ((CH3)2SO) (DMSO) under laser excitation of the UO2(2+) ion in resonance with the 1sigma(g)+ --> 1phi(g) Laport-forbidden f-f electronic transitions span from 530 to 450 nm by using ten output lines of the argon-ion laser at room temperature. The resonance Raman excitation profile of the totally symmetric stretching vibrational mode of uranyl observed at 832 cm(-1) is presented and analyzed in terms of transform theory within the non-Condon model to give relatively good agreement with experimental results. The disagreement between the experimental data and the calculated resonance Raman excitation profile, at the long-wave part of the the 1sigma(g)+ --> 1phi(g) electronic transitions, may be referred to interference between the weak scattering from the neighboring forbidden electronic states (1delta(g)) and strong preresonance scattering from allowed electronic states at higher levels. An amount of change in the experimental resonance Raman excitation profile of the uranyl-DMSO system depends considerably upon the ligands (L) bound to the uranyl group. Elongation of the U-O equilibrium bond length resulting from the 1sigma(g)+ --> 1phi(g) electronic transitions is related to the magnitude of the change in the excitation profile of UO2L2 (L = NO3, CH3COO, Cl) type uranyl compounds in (DMSO).     

The resonance Raman effect of dicaesium uranyl tetrachloride in dimethyl sulfoxide

The resonance Raman scattering spectra of dicaesium uranyl tetrachloride (Cs2UO2Cl4) in dimethyl sulfoxide ((CH3)2SO) have been measured under laser excitation of the uranyl ion in resonance with the 1sigma(g)+ --> 1phi(g) Laport-forbidden f-f electronic transitions (520-450 nm) by using 10 output lines of the argon-ion laser at room temperature. The excitation profile of the totally symmetric stretching vibrational mode of uranyl observed at 830 cm(-1) is presented and analyzed in terms of the transform methods which are able to formally bypass multimode complexities. The non-Condon model (generalized B, C-terms of scattering) gives a relatively good agreement with the resonance excitation profile of experiment. Reliable value of the nuclear displacement on going the 1sigma(g)+ --> 1phi(g) electronic transition and the amount of charge transferred from the ligand to uranium of uranyl ion both in the ground and excited states are obtained. It is found that the average number of ligands coordinated equatorically to the central uranium atom affects on the amount of charge transferred from the ligand to uranium, especially in the electronic excited state. As increasing the average number of ligands, the amount of charge transferred from the ligand to uranium increases in the ground state, while in the electronic excited state, the charge transferred decreases.     

Charge transfer vibronic transitions in uranyl tetrachloride compounds

The electronic and vibronic interactions of uranyl (UO(2))(2+) in three tetrachloride crystals have been investigated with spectroscopic experiments and theoretical modeling. Analysis and simulation of the absorption and photoluminescence spectra have resulted in a quantitative understanding of the charge transfer vibronic transitions of uranyl in the crystals. The spectra obtained at liquid helium temperature consist of extremely narrow zero-phonon lines (ZPL) and vibronic bands. The observed ZPLs are assigned to the first group of the excited states formed by electronic excitation from the 3σ ground state into the f(δ,?) orbitals of uranyl. The Huang-Rhys theory of vibronic coupling is modified successfully for simulating both the absorption and luminescence spectra. It is shown that only vibronic coupling to the axially symmetric stretching mode is Franck-Condon allowed, whereas other modes are involved through coupling with the symmetric stretching mode. The energies of electronic transitions, vibration frequencies of various local modes, and changes in the O═U═O bond length of uranyl in different electronic states and in different coordination geometries are evaluated in empirical simulations of the optical spectra. Multiple uranyl sites derived from the resolution of a superlattice at low temperature are resolved by crystallographic characterization and time- and energy-resolved spectroscopic studies. The present empirical simulation provides insights into fundamental understanding of uranyl electronic interactions and is useful for quantitative characterization of uranyl coordination.     

Multiphoton ion pair spectroscopy (MPIPS) with ultrashort laser pulses for the H2 molecule

Time-dependent Schr?dinger equation, TDSE, simulations have been performed in order to prepare and study via MPIPS the evolution of vibrational wave packets on the ion pair electronic state potentials B'B1Sigma(u)(+) and Hh1Sigma(g)(+) of the H2 molecule. Using ab initio potential surfaces and transition moments, we present two- and three-photon excitation schemes with ultrashort pulses (tau 相似文献   

Structure and hydrolysis of the U(IV), U(V), and U(VI) aqua ions from ab initio molecular simulations

Ab initio molecular dynamics simulations at 300 K, based on density functional theory, are performed to study the hydration shell geometries, solvent dipole, and first hydrolysis reaction of the uranium(IV) (U(4+)) and uranyl(V) (UO(2)(+)) ions in aqueous solution. The solvent dipole and first hydrolysis reaction of aqueous uranyl(VI) (UO(2)(2+)) are also probed. The first shell of U(4+) is coordinated by 8-9 water ligands, with an average U-O distance of 2.42 ?. The average first shell coordination number and distance are in agreement with experimental estimates of 8-11 and 2.40-2.44 ?, respectively. The simulated EXAFS of U(4+) matches well with recent experimental data. The first shell of UO(2)(+) is coordinated by five water ligands in the equatorial plane, with the average U═O(ax) and U-O distances being 1.85 ? and 2.54 ?, respectively. Overall, the hydration shell structure of UO(2)(+) closely matches that of UO(2)(2+), except for small expansions in the average U═O(ax) and U-O distances. Each ion strongly polarizes their respective first-shell water ligands. The computed acidity constants (pK(a)) of U(4+) and UO(2)(2+) are 0.93 and 4.95, in good agreement with the experimental values of 0.54 and 5.24, respectively. The predicted pK(a) value of UO(2)(+) is 8.5.     

Electronic spectroscopy and ionization potential of UO2 in the gas phase

The electronic spectroscopy of UO(2) has been examined using multiphoton ionization with mass-selected detection of the UO(2) (+) ions. Supersonic jet cooling was used to reduce the spectral congestion. Twenty-two vibronic bands of neutral UO(2) were observed in the range from 17,400 to 32,000 cm(-1). These bands originated from the U(5fphi(u)7ssigma(g))O(2) X (3)Phi(2u) and (3)Phi(3u) states. The stronger band systems are attributed to metal-centered 7p<--7s transitions. Threshold ionization measurements were used to determine the ionization potentials of UO and UO(2). These were found to be higher than the values obtained previously from electron impact measurements but in agreement with the results of recent theoretical calculations.     

Electronic transitions and vibronic coupling in neptunyl compounds

The low-lying electronic transitions of the neptunyl (NpO(2)(2+)) ion are characterized as either charge transfer (CT) or intra- 5f. Comparison of these classes of electronic transitions reveals significantly different photophysical properties, especially in vibronic coupling. An empirical model developed for analyses of uranyl CT vibronic transitions is used here to simulate the absorption (excitation) spectra of neptunyl in two compounds of different chemical compositions and structural symmetries. Analyses reveal that CT vibronic coupling in neptunyl has the same characteristics as that in typical uranyl analogues. The primary profile of the CT spectra is similar for neptunyl respectively with respect to chloride- and oxide-neptunium bonding interactions. On the other hand, vibronic coupling to the CT transitions is significantly different from that of f-f transitions, even within a given neptunyl compound. Electronic energy levels, vibronic coupling strength, and frequencies of various vibration modes were evaluated for transitions to the excited states of different origins in the region from 8000 cm(-1) to 21000 cm(-1) for two neptunyl compounds.     

Study on the photodissociation spectra of CS2+ via B2Sigma u+ and C2Sigma g+ electronic states

The photodissociation spectra of CS(2)(+) ions via B(2)Sigma(u)(+) and C(2)Sigma(g)(+) electronic states have been studied by using two-photon excitation, where the parent CS(2)(+) ions were prepared by [3 + 1] REMPI (resonance-enhanced multiphoton ionization) at 483.2 nm from the jet-cooled CS(2) molecules. The [1 + 1] photodissociation spectrum of CS(2)(+) via the B(2)Sigma(u)(+)(upsilon(1)upsilon(2)0) <-- X(2)Pi(g,3/2)(000) transition was obtained by scanning the dissociation laser in the wavelength range of 270-285 nm and detecting the signal of both S(+) and CS(+). The [1 + 1'] photodissociation spectra of CS(2)(+) were obtained by fixing the first dissociation laser at 281.94 or 277.15 nm to excite the B(2)Sigma(u)(+) (000 or 100) <-- X(2)Pi(g,3/2)(000) transitions and scanning the second dissociation laser in the range of 606-763 nm to excite C(2)Sigma(g)(+)(upsilon(1)upsilon(2)0) <-- B(2)Sigma(u)(+)(000,100) transitions. New spectroscopic constants of nu(1) = 666.2 +/- 2.5 cm(-1), nu(2) = 363.2 +/- 1.9 cm(-1), chi(11) = -5.5 +/- 0.1 cm(-1), chi(22) = 1.6 +/- 0.1 cm(-1), chi(12) = -8.6 +/- 0.2 cm(-1), and k(122) = 44.9 +/- 2.5 cm(-1) (Fermi resonance constant) for the C(2)Sigma(g)(+) state are deduced from the [1 + 1'] photodissociation spectra. On the basis of the [1 + 1] and [1 + 1'] photodissociation spectra, the wavelength and level dependence of the product branching ratios CS(+)/S(+) has been found and the dissociation dynamics of CS(2)(+) ions via B(2)Sigma(u)(+) and C(2)Sigma(g)(+) electronic states are discussed.     

Ab initio study of the mechanism for photoinduced Yl-oxygen exchange in uranyl(VI) in acidic aqueous solution

The mechanism for the photochemically induced isotope-exchange reaction U(17/18)O2(2+)(aq) + H2(16)O <==> U(16)O2(2+)(aq) + H2(17/18)O has been studied using quantum-chemical methods. There is a dense manifold of states between 22,000 and 54,000 cm(-1) that results from excitations from the sigma(u) and pi(u) bonding orbitals in the (1)Sigma(g)(+) ground state to the nonbonding f(delta) and f(phi) orbitals localized on uranium. On the basis of investigations of the reaction profile in the (1)Sigma(g)(+) ground state and the excited states (3)Delta(g) (the lowest triplet state) and (3)Gamma(g) (one of the several higher triplet states), the latter two of which have the electron configurations sigma(u)f(delta) and pi(u)f(phi), respectively, we suggest that the isotope exchange takes place in one of the higher triplet states, of which the (3)Gamma(g) state was used as a representative. The geometries of the luminescent (3)Delta(g) state, the lowest in the sigma(u)f(delta,phi) manifold (the "sigma" states), and the (1)Sigma(g)(+) ground state are very similar, except that the bond distances are slightly longer in the former. This is presumably a result of transfer of a bonding electron to a nonbonding f orbital, which makes the excited state in some respects similar to uranyl(V). As is the case for all of the states of the pi(u)f(delta,phi) manifold (the "pi" states), the geometry of the (3)Gamma(g) state is very different from that of the (3)Delta(g) "sigma" state and has nonequivalent U-O(yl) distances of 1.982 and 1.763 A; in the (3)Gamma(g) state, the yl-exchange takes place by transfer of a proton or hydrogen from water to the more distant yl-oxygen. The activation barriers for proton/hydrogen transfer in the ground state and the (3)Delta(g) and (3)Gamma(g) states are 186, 219, and 84 kJ/mol, respectively. The relaxation energy for the (3)Gamma(g) state in the solvent after photoexcitation is -86 kJ/mol, indicating that the energy barrier can be overcome; the "pi" states are therefore the most probable route for proton/hydrogen transfer. They can be populated after UV irradiation but are too high in energy (approximately 36,000-40,000 cm(-1)) to be reached by a single-photon absorption at 436 nm (22,900 cm(-1)), where experimental data have demonstrated that exchange can take place. Okuyama et al. [Bull. Res. Lab. Nucl. React. (Tokyo Inst. Technol.) 1978, 3, 39-50] have demonstrated that an intermediate is formed when an acidic solution of UO2(2+)(aq) is flash-photolyzed in the UV range. The absorption spectrum of this short-lived intermediate (which has a maximum at 560 nm) indicates that this species arises from 436 nm excitation of the luminescent (3)Delta(g) state (which has a lifetime of approximately 2 x 10(-6) s); this is sufficient to reach the reactive "pi" states. It has been speculated that the primary reaction in acidic solutions of UO2(2+)(aq) is the formation of a uranyl(V) species; our results indicate that the structure in the luminescent state has some similarity to that of UO2(+) but that the reactive species in the "pi" states is a cation radical with a distinctly different structure.     

Spectroscopic investigation of Al2N and its anion via negative ion photoelectron spectroscopy

Negative ion photoelectron spectroscopy was used to elucidate the electronic and geometric structure of the gaseous Al2N/Al2N- molecules, using photodetachment wavelengths of 416 nm (2.977 eV), 355 nm (3.493 eV), and 266 nm (4.661 eV). Three electronic bands are observed and assigned to the X2Sigma(u)+ <-- X1Sigma(g)+, A2Pi(u) <-- X1Sigma(g)+, and B2Sigma(g)+ <-- X1Sigma(g)+ electronic transitions, with the caveat that one or both excited states may be slightly bent. With the aid of density functional theory calculations and Franck-Condon spectral simulations, we determine the adiabatic electron affinity of Al2N, 2.571 +/- 0.008 eV, along with geometry changes upon photodetachment, vibrational frequencies, and excited-state term energies. Observation of excitation of the odd vibrational levels of the antisymmetric stretch (nu3) suggests a breakdown of the Franck-Condon approximation, caused by the vibronic coupling between the X2Sigma(u)+ and B2Sigma(g)+ electronic states through the nu3 mode.     

Parametric investigation of laser-induced fluorescence of solid-state uranyl compounds

The combination of remote/standoff sensing and laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) spectroscopy shows potential for detection of uranyl (UO2(2+)) compounds. Uranyl compounds exhibit characteristic emission in the 450-600 nm (22,200 to 16,700 cm(-1)) spectral region when excited by wavelengths in the ultraviolet or in the short-wavelength portion of the visible spectrum. We report a parametric study of the effects of excitation wavelength [including 532 nm (18,797 cm(-1)), 355 nm (28,169 cm(-1)), and 266 nm (37,594 cm(-1))] and excitation laser power on solid-state uranium compounds. The uranium compounds investigated include uranyl nitrate, uranyl sulfate, uranyl oxalate, uranium dioxide, triuranium octaoxide, uranyl acetate, uranyl formate, zinc uranyl acetate, and uranyl phosphate. We observed the characteristic uranyl fluorescence spectrum from the uranium compounds except for uranium oxide compounds (which do not contain the uranyl moiety) and for uranyl formate, which has a low fluorescence quantum yield. Relative uranyl fluorescence intensity is greatest for 355 nm excitation, and the order of decreasing fluorescence intensity with excitation wavelength (relative intensity/laser output) is 355 nm > 266 nm > 532 nm. For 532 nm excitation, the emission spectrum is produced by two-photon excitation. Uranyl fluorescence intensity increases linearly with increasing laser power, but the rate of fluorescence intensity increase is different for different emission bands.

Vacuum ultraviolet photoionization of C3

Photoionization efficiency (PIE) curves for C(3) molecules produced by laser ablation are measured from 11.0 to 13.5 eV with tunable vacuum ultraviolet undulator radiation. A step in the PIE curve versus photon energy, obtained with N(2) as the carrier gas, supports the conclusion of very effective cooling of C(3) to its linear (1)Sigma(g)(+) ground state. The second step observed in the PIE curve versus photon energy could be the first experimental evidence of the C(3)(+)((2)Sigma(g)(+)) excited state. The experimental results, complemented by ab initio calculations, suggest a state-to-state vertical ionization energy of 11.70 +/- 0.05 eV between the C(3)(X(1)Sigma(g)(+)) and the C(3)(+)(X(2)Sigma(u)(+)) states. An ionization energy of 11.61 +/- 0.07 eV between the neutral and ionic ground states of C(3) is deduced using the data together with our calculations. Accurate ab initio calculations are performed for both linear and bent geometries on the lowest doublet electronic states of C(3)(+) using Configuration Interaction (CI) approaches and large basis sets. These calculations confirm that C(3)(+) is bent in its electronic ground state, which is separated by a small potential barrier from the (2)Sigma(u)(+) minimum. The gradual increase at the onset of the PIE curve suggests a geometry change between the ground neutral and cationic states. The energies between several doublet states of the ion are theoretically determined to be 0.81, 1.49, and 1.98 eV between the (2)Sigma(u)(+) and the (2)Sigma(g)(+),( 2)Pi(u), (2)Pi(g) excited states of C(3)(+), respectively.     

Synthesis of a uranium(VI)-carbene: reductive formation of uranyl(V)-methanides, oxidative preparation of a [R2C═U═O]2+ analogue of the [O═U═O]2+ uranyl ion (R = Ph2PNSiMe3), and comparison of the nature of U(IV)═C, U(V)═C, and U(VI)═C double bonds

We report attempts to prepare uranyl(VI)- and uranium(VI) carbenes utilizing deprotonation and oxidation strategies. Treatment of the uranyl(VI)-methanide complex [(BIPMH)UO(2)Cl(THF)] [1, BIPMH = HC(PPh(2)NSiMe(3))(2)] with benzyl-sodium did not afford a uranyl(VI)-carbene via deprotonation. Instead, one-electron reduction and isolation of di- and trinuclear [UO(2)(BIPMH)(μ-Cl)UO(μ-O){BIPMH}] (2) and [UO(μ-O)(BIPMH)(μ(3)-Cl){UO(μ-O)(BIPMH)}(2)] (3), respectively, with concomitant elimination of dibenzyl, was observed. Complexes 2 and 3 represent the first examples of organometallic uranyl(V), and 3 is notable for exhibiting rare cation-cation interactions between uranyl(VI) and uranyl(V) groups. In contrast, two-electron oxidation of the uranium(IV)-carbene [(BIPM)UCl(3)Li(THF)(2)] (4) by 4-morpholine N-oxide afforded the first uranium(VI)-carbene [(BIPM)UOCl(2)] (6). Complex 6 exhibits a trans-CUO linkage that represents a [R(2)C═U═O](2+) analogue of the uranyl ion. Notably, treatment of 4 with other oxidants such as Me(3)NO, C(5)H(5)NO, and TEMPO afforded 1 as the only isolable product. Computational studies of 4, the uranium(V)-carbene [(BIPM)UCl(2)I] (5), and 6 reveal polarized covalent U═C double bonds in each case whose nature is significantly affected by the oxidation state of uranium. Natural Bond Order analyses indicate that upon oxidation from uranium(IV) to (V) to (VI) the uranium contribution to the U═C σ-bond can increase from ca. 18 to 32% and within this component the orbital composition is dominated by 5f character. For the corresponding U═C π-components, the uranium contribution increases from ca. 18 to 26% but then decreases to ca. 24% and is again dominated by 5f contributions. The calculations suggest that as a function of increasing oxidation state of uranium the radial contraction of the valence 5f and 6d orbitals of uranium may outweigh the increased polarizing power of uranium in 6 compared to 5.     

Extending the chemistry of the uranyl ion: Lewis acid coordination to a U=O oxygen

Treatment of the thf adduct UO2(NCN)thf (NCN = [(Me3SiN)CPh(NSiMe3)]) (1) with 2 equiv of B(C6F5)3 provides UO{OB(C6F5)3}(NCN)2 (2) the first example of a neutral uranyl complex exhibiting Lewis basic behavior. The crystal structure of 2 shows a U=O-B interaction with an elongated U=O bond (1.898(3) A). Raman spectroscopy suggests weakening of the O=U=O bonding, giving the lowest reported symmetric stretching frequency for a monomeric uranyl complex, nu1 = 780 cm-1. The borane can be selectively removed using PMe3 to give the coordinatively unsaturated UO2(NCN)2 (3) or using tBuNC to provide UO2(CNBut)(NCN)2 (4), the first example of an isonitrile coordinated to uranium.     

The D 1Sigma+ state of 7LiH: comparison of observations with vibronic theory

The excited D (1)Sigma(+) electronic state of (7)LiH has been observed up to near its dissociation limit by a pulsed optical-optical double resonance fluorescence depletion spectroscopic technique. An extensive vibronic calculation has been performed with a diabatic approach with purely potential couplings involving a set of eight diabatic states of (1)Sigma(+) symmetry, corresponding to seven neutral states and one ionic state. Twenty-six new vibrational levels have been observed. Both the derived vibrational energy spacings and the vibronic ones are similarly irregular. The observed spectral linewidths and vibronic resonance widths are found to vary similarly with increasing energy. Observed asymmetric spectral lineshapes may be attributed to the strong radial couplings between the discrete levels of the D (1)Sigma(+) electronic state and the continuum states of the C (1)Sigma(+) electronic state. The mutual agreement between the spectral results and the vibronic results demonstrates that the D (1)Sigma(+) electronic state of (7)LiH is better characterized by the vibronic approach.     

Spectroscopy of UO(2)Cl(4)(2)(-) in basic aluminum chloride-1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride

The optical absorption, emission, FT Raman, one-photon excitation, two-photon excitation, and luminescence lifetime measurements are reported for UO(2)Cl(4)(2)(-) in 40:60 AlCl(3)-EMIC (where EMIC identical with 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride), a room-temperature ionic liquid. Comparison of the spectra with previous results from single crystals containing UO(2)Cl(4)(2)(-) allowed the characterization of four ground-state vibrational frequencies, two excited-state vibrational frequencies, and the location of eight electronic excited-state energy levels. The vibrational frequencies and electronic energy levels are found to be consistent with the UO(2)Cl(4)(2)(-) ion. Comparison of the one-photon and two-photon excitation spectra, and the relative intensities of the transitions in the emission spectrum indicate that the center of symmetry is perturbed by an interaction with the solvent.     

Novel dinuclear uranyl complexes with asymmetric schiff base ligands: synthesis, structural characterization, reactivity, and extraction studies

The reaction of uranyl nitrate with asymmetric [3O, N] Schiff base ligands in the presence of base yields dinuclear uranyl complexes, [UO2(HL1)]2.DMF (1), [UO2(HL2)]2.2DMF.H2O (2), and [UO2(HL3)]2.2DMF (3) with 3-(2-hydroxybenzylideneamino)propane-1,2-diol (H3L1), 4-((2,3-dihydroxypropylimino)methyl)benzene-1,3-diol (H3L2), and 3-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-2-hydroxybenzylideneamino)propane-1,2-diol (H3L3), respectively. All complexes exhibit a symmetric U2O2 core featuring a distorted pentagonal bipyramidal geometry around each uranyl center. The hydroxyl groups on the ligands are attached to the uranyl ion in chelating, bridging, and coordinate covalent bonds. Distortion in the backbone is more pronounced in 1, where the phenyl groups are on the same side of the planar U2O2 core. The phenyl groups are present on the opposite side of U2O2 core in 2 and 3 due to electronic and steric effects. A similar hydrogen-bonding pattern is observed in the solid-state structures of 1 and 3 with terminal hydroxyl groups and DMF molecules, resulting in discrete molecules. Free aryl hydroxyl groups and water molecules in 2 give rise to a two-dimensional network with water molecules in the channels of an extended corrugated sheet structure. Compound 1 in the presence of excess Ag(NO3) yields {[(UO2)(NO3)(C6H4OCOO)](NH(CH2CH3)3)}2 (4), where the geometry around the uranyl center is hexagonal bipyrimidal. Two-phase extraction studies of uranium from aqueous media employing H3L3 indicate 99% reduction of uranyl ion at higher pH.     

Infrared spectroscopy of extreme coordination: the carbonyls of U(+) and UO(2)(+)

Uranium and uranium dioxide carbonyl cations produced by laser vaporization are studied with mass-selected ion infrared spectroscopy in the C-O stretching region. Dissociation patterns, spectra, and quantum chemical calculations establish that the fully coordinated ions are U(CO)(8)(+) and UO(2)(CO)(5)(+), with D(4d) square antiprism and D(5h) pentagonal bipyramid structures. Back-bonding in U(CO)(8)(+) causes a red-shifted CO stretch, but back-donation is inefficient for UO(2)(CO)(5)(+), producing a blue-shifted CO stretch characteristic of nonclassical carbonyls.
