Franck-Condon matrix elements for bound-continuum vibrational transitions calculated by numerical integration and basis set expansion techniques

Franck-Condon factor distributions for bound-to-continuum transitions of one-dimensional vibrational states are calculated by a) using numerical integration, b) employing a finite number of square integrable harmonic oscillator functions. The methods are generally applicable to any kind of bound or repulsive potential involved. Results are presented and compared to model potential calculations previously reported by Krüger [1].     

Tetrathiafulvalene-acetylene scaffolding: new pi-electron systems for advanced materials

Novel extended tetrathiafulvalenes (TTFs) with hexa-2,4-diyne-1,6-diylidene spacers between the two 1,3-dithiole rings and laterally appended alkynyl moieties for one- and two-dimensional scaffolding were synthesised and investigated for their electronic properties.     

Polyol-Metall-Komplexe. 25. rac-Mannose,rac-Arabit und L-Threit als deprotonierte Liganden in Ferraten(III)

Polyol Metal Complexes. 25. rac-Mannose, rac-Arabitol and L -Threitol as Deprotonated Ligands in Ferrates(III ) Ba₂[Fe₂(β-rac-ManfH_?5)₂] · 12H₂O ( 1 ), Sr₄[Fe₄(rac-Arab1,2,3,5H_?4)₄(OH)₂]CO₃ · 33 H₂O ( 2 ), and Ba₂[Fe₂(L-ThreH_?4)₂(OH)₂] · 12.5 H₂O ( 3 ) (Man = mannose, Arab = arabitol, Thre = threitol) have been crystallized from alkaline aqueous solution. Crystal structure analysis revealed dinuclear ferrate(III ) ions for 1 and 3 , the former being a C_i-symmetrical homoleptic ferric complex with pentadentate pentaanions derived from racemic β-mannofuranose. In 3 , besides tetradentate L -threitolato ligands, there is one terminal hydroxo ligand at each ferric center. Hydroxo ligands are also present in the C_i-symmetrical hexaanions of 2 , which are tetranuclear planar entities built up from four edge-sharing FeO₆ octahedra. However arabitol is a pentitol, the tetraanionic ligands are only tetradentate for steric reasons.     

Geminale Azo- und Heteroelement-Funktionen,II: α-Substituierte 2-(4-Chlorphenylazo)-propan-Derivate

The reaction of acetone-4-chlorophenylhydrazone (6) with bromine in the presence of acetamide yields 2-bromo-2-(4-chlorophenylazo)-propane (7) and 2,2-bis(4-chlorophenylazo)propane (8). The unstable heteroallylic bromide7 was subjected without isolation to nucleophilic displacements with a series of heteronucleophiles thereby affording the corresponding 2-(4-chlorophenylazo)-2-propane derivatives9 with the azo- and heteroelement-functions in a geminal position to each other.
