Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental and theoretical infrared spectra of Co2CO
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used density functional theory with generalized gradient approximation (DFT-GGA) for the exchange-correlation potential predict the lowest energy state of Co2CO to be 5A″ with the angle Co−Co−C of 116°.
Journal ArticleDOI
Infrared spectra and quantum chemical calculations of the uranium-carbon molecules UC, CUC, UCH, and U(CC)2.
Xuefeng Wang,Lester Andrews,Dongxia Ma,Laura Gagliardi,António Pereira Gonçalves,Cláudia C. L. Pereira,Joaquim Marçalo,Claude Godart,Benjamin Villeroy +8 more
TL;DR: This work shows that U and C atoms react spontaneously to form the uranium carbide U≡C and C≡U⩽C molecules with uranium-carbon triple bonds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Formation and characterization of the photochemically interconvertible side-on and end-on bonded dioxygen-iron dioxide complexes in solid argon.
TL;DR: Two interconvertible iron dioxide-dioxygen complexes were prepared and characterized by matrix isolation infrared absorption spectroscopy as well as theoretical calculations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metal Dihydride (MH2) and Dimer (M2H4) Structures in Solid Argon, Neon, and Hydrogen (M = Ca, Sr, and Ba): Infrared Spectra and Theoretical Calculations
Xuefeng Wang,Lester Andrews +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, laser-ablated Ca, Sr, and Ba atoms were co-deposited with H2 in excess argon, neon, and hydrogen to form alkaline-earth metal hydrides.
