Journal ArticleDOI
Group 4 Transition Metal CH2MF2, CHFMF2, and HC÷MF3 Complexes Formed by C−F Activation and α-Fluorine Transfer
Jonathan T. Lyon,Lester Andrews +1 more
TL;DR: Calculations indicate that the CH2=MF2 complexes have near C2v symmetry and are considerably more stable than other possible products (CH2(mu-F)MF and CHF=MHF).
Journal ArticleDOI
Reactions of Beryllium Species with N2: Infrared Spectra and Quantum Chemical Calculations of Beryllium Dinitrogen Complexes in Solid Argon and Nitrogen
Journal ArticleDOI
Infrared Spectrum of the H3N−HI Complex in Solid Ne, Ar, Ne/Ar, Kr, and N2. Comparisons of Matrix Effects on Hydrogen-Bonded Complexes
Lester Andrews,Xuefeng Wang +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the 1:1 complex was investigated in a range of matrix environments and to compare with previous work using the reagent gases, including argon, neon/argon mixtures, krypton, and nitrogen.
Journal ArticleDOI
Infrared spectra of M-η2-C2H2, HM-C≡CH, and HM-C≡CH- prepared in reactions of laser-ablated group 3 metal atoms with acetylene.
Han-Gook Cho,Lester Andrews +1 more
TL;DR: Results reveal that coordination of group 3 metal atoms to the acetylene π-bond and H-migration from C to M readily occur during codeposition and photolysis afterward.
Journal ArticleDOI
Emission and excitation spectra of benzyl radicals in solid argon
J. Houston Miller,Lester Andrews +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, Dye laser excited emission spectra are qualitatively similar to spectra of the radicals in glassy hosts and demonstrate the differences between absorption and emission for the 12A2 ↔ 12B2 transition of the benzyl radical.
