氮气笼型水合物的激光拉曼光谱

在253K和16MPa的压力下,于实验室内合成了氮气水合物,用显微共焦拉曼光谱对其N-N和O-H键伸缩振动的光谱特征进行了研究．结果表明,氮气水合物中的N-N和O—H键的拉曼峰分别为2322．4和3092．1cm^-1,与天然的空气水合物中的数据十分接近．另外,还测定了液氮和溶解于水中的氮分子中N—N键的拉曼峰值,分别为2326．6和2325．0cm^-1．氮气笼型水合物分解的拉曼谱图表明,氮分子同时进入水合物的大笼和小笼中,但由于氮分子在大、小笼中的环境氛围十分接近,其拉曼位移相差不大,故拉曼谱图只能显示N—N键伸缩振动一个峰．

Geometric and electronic structures of NO dimer layers on Rh(111) studied with near edge x-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy: experiment and theory

Adsorption of NO on the Rh(111) surface has been studied in the monolayer, bilayer, and multilayer regimes with near edge x-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectroscopy. NO dimer layers are formed on a chemisorbed monomer layer. The polarization dependence in the NEXAFS spectra of the dimer components has contradicted the previous assignments. To determine the structure of the NO dimer layers from the polarization analysis of the NEXAFS spectra, ab initio configuration interaction calculations have been carried out for some low-lying core excited states of the weakly bound NO dimer with cis-ONNO planar geometry. It is revealed that the NO dimers in the multilayer are standing with the N-N bond perpendicular to the surface, while in the second layer they are rather lying on the first monomer layer.     

Dialkylaluminum hydrazides derived from free hydrazine N2H4. Molecular Structures of [(MeC)2AlN2H3]2 and [(MeC)2Al]4(N2H2)2

The reaction of di(tert-butyl)aluminum hydride with hydrazine N2H4 afforded the hydrazide (Me3C)2AlN2H3, 1, by the release of elemental hydrogen. Compound 1 is a dimer in solution and in the solid state and possesses a six-membered Al2N4 heterocycle in a twist conformation with two intact N-N bonds. Further reaction of 1 with an excess of HAl(CMe3)2 yielded the tricyclic aluminum and nitrogen rich Al4N4 compound [(Me3C)2AlN2H2]2[Al(CMe3)2]2, 2, in which each N-N bond of a central six-membered Al2N4 ring similar to that of 1 is side-on-coordinated to an Al(CMe3)2 group. The structure of 2 may be interpreted as a dimer of the dialuminum hydrazide (Me3C)2Al-NH-NH-Al(CMe3)2.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">Ab initio</Emphasis> calculation of nitrogen oxide dimer structure and its anion-radical

A comparative quantum chemical analysis has been made for the most stable dimer of nitrogen oxide with the structure cis-ONNO in a singlet state ¹A₁ by ab initio method of SCF MO LCAO, allowing for electron correlation according to Meller-Plesset perturbation theory of the second order (MP2), and density functional technique (DFT). The computations by MP2 method show anion-radical (ONNO)^? to have a strong bond between nitrogen atoms (N-N 1.44 Å) in contrast to molecular weakly bound cis-dimer with equilibrium distance N-N 2.23 Å. Molecular orbital structure of the dimer and its anions was examined that made it possible to suggest a reason of preferable stabilization of nitrogen oxide dimer in the cis-form. Calculated high affinity to electron (E_a = ?1.55-?1.69 eV) for the molecular dimer ONNO (¹A₁) explains an intense strengthening of N-N bond in anion-radical and confirms the experimental data on a possibility of surface anion-π-radical formation on electron donor centers. The DFT computations indicate that this technique poorly reproduces the experimental geometry and electron structure of the cis-dimer ONNO having predicted a triplet ground state with the equilibrium distance N-N ≈2 Å instead of a singlet one with N-N 2.26 Å. The comparison between MP2 and DFT calculations for complex dimer ONNO with copper cation reveals the energy state of the complex (Cu-O₂N₂)⁺ corresponding to stabilization of anion-π-radical (N₂O₂)^? {term-³A₂, Cu(d)⁹-(ONNO)^?1} to be highly overestimated by DFT.     

Atomic properties of N(2)O(4) based on its experimental charge density

Nitrogen dioxide, being known to exist as a dimer N2O4 in the crystal with a very long N-N bond length of 1.76 A, was crystallized at low-temperature conditions on a diffractometer. High-resolution X-ray data (sin(theta/lambda) = 1.249 A-1) were recorded with a CCD area detector to allow the generation of an experimental charge density distribution. By making use of Bader's AIM theory, zero-flux surfaces were calculated, and we examined atomic volumes and atomic charges obtained from this experiment and various theoretical calculations. Four commonly used methods of computing atomic charges (Mulliken, AIM, NPA, and CHELP) were considered. The AIM charges are rather independent from the used basis set. Interestingly, the evaluated atomic volumes are very similar between experiment and theory, although in theory isolated molecules are considered. For the long N-N bond a bond order n of approximately 0.5 was derived from a comparison with appropriate model compounds.     

Formation and characterization of the tetranuclear scandium nitride: Sc4N4

The scandium dimer reacts with dinitrogen in solid argon to form the previously characterized planar cyclic Sc(mu-N)2Sc molecule, with the N-N bond being completely cleaved. The cyclic Sc(mu-N)2Sc molecules dimerize on annealing to form a cubic Sc4N4 cluster with tetrahedral symmetry, which is a fundamental building block for ScN nanoparticles and crystals.     

Spin-spin coupling across intramolecular N-H(+)-N hydrogen bonds in models for proton sponges: an ab initio investigation

Ab initio calculations have been performed to obtain structures and coupling constants (1)J(N-H), (1h)J(H-N), and (2h)J(N-N) for models of proton sponges with symmetric and asymmetric N-H(+)-N intramolecular hydrogen bonds (IMHBs). For a given model, the asymmetric structure has a lower energy, a longer N-N distance, and a hydrogen bond which has a greater deviation from linearity. The computed values of (2h)J(N-N) for the models are significantly less than predicted values based on the distance dependence of (2h)J(N-N) for complexes with intermolecular N-H(+)-N hydrogen bonds. However, the reduced values of (2h)J(N-N) cannot be attributed solely to the distortion of the hydrogen bond in the models, but also reflect differences in s electron populations at the nitrogens in both the ground state and the excited states which couple to it through the Fermi-contact (FC) operator. Values of (2h)J(N-N) for IMHBs can be related quadratically to the N-N distances in the models, and demonstrate that there is no discrepancy between computed values of (2h)J(N-N) at the short N-N distances found in these systems and experimental data for proton sponges.     

Reduction pathway of end-on terminally coordinated dinitrogen. IV. Geometric, electronic, and vibrational structure of a W(IV) dialkylhydrazido complex and its two-electron-reduced derivative undergoing N-N cleavage upon protonation

The molybdenum and tungsten dialkylhydrazido complexes [M(dppe)2 (NNC5H10)]2+ (M = Mo, W; compounds A(Mo) and A(W)) and their two-electron-reduced counterparts [M(dppe)2 (NNC5H10)] (compounds B(Mo) and B(W)) are characterized structurally and spectroscopically. The crystal structure of B(W) indicates a geometry between square pyramidal and trigonal bipyramidal with the NNC5H10 group in the apical position and in the trigonal plane of the complex, respectively. Temperature-dependent 31P NMR spectra of B(Mo) show that this geometry is present in solution as well. At room temperature, rapid Berry pseudorotation between the "axial" and "equatorial" ligand positions gives rise to a singlet in the 31P NMR spectrum. This exchange process is slowed at low temperature, leading to a doublet. The N-N distance of B(W) is 1.388 A, and the W-N distance is 1.781 A. Infrared and Raman spectroscopy applied to A(W), B(W), and their 15N isotopomers reveals extensive mixing between the N-N and W-N vibrations of the metal-N-N core with the modes of the piperidine ring. The N-N force constant of A(W) is determined to be 6.95 mdyn/A, which is close to the values of the Mo and W NNH2 complexes. In B(W), the N-N force constant decreases to 6.4 mdyn/A, which is between the values found for the Mo/W NNH3 and NNH2 complexes. This allows us to attribute N-N double bond character to A(W) and intermediate character between the double and single bonds for the N-N bond of B(W). These findings are supported by DFT calculations. More importantly, the HOMO of B(W) corresponds to a linear combination of the metal d(sigma) orbital with a ligand orbital having N-N sigma* character, inducing a weakening of the N-N bond. This contributes to the cleavage of the N-N bond taking place upon protonation of B(W) at the Nbeta atom of the NNC5H10 group.

Investigations in the field of pyrazolidine chemistry

Symmetrical and unsymmetrical di-, tri-, and tetrasubstituted 2,4,6,8-tetraoxo-1,5-diazabicyclo[3.3.0]octanes were synthesized, and their IR and UV spectra were examined. The N-N bond undergoes hydrogenolysis and the C-N bond is cleaved when ethanol solutions are refluxed in the presence of a Raney nickel catalyst. The N-N bond is more resistant to hydrogenolysis than is the case for 3,5-dioxopyrazolidines.See [1] for communication XVII.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 8, pp. 1097–1101, August, 1971.
