Raman Spectra of the Products of Na and K Atom Argon Matrix Reactions with O2 Molecules
TL;DR: In this article, the Raman spectra of samples of sodium and potassium atoms codeposited at 16°K with oxygen molecules at high dilution in argon showed strong bands at 1094 and 1108 cm−1, respectively, which are assigned to the superoxide fundamentals in the Na+O2− and K+O 2− molecules.
Journal ArticleDOI
Matrix Infrared Spectra and Density Functional Calculations of Ni(CO)x-, x = 1−3
Mingfei Zhou and,Lester Andrews +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the infrared spectra of Ni(CO)1-4 complexes with 12C16O, 13C 16O, and 12C18O substitution were analyzed and shown to be isotopic.
Journal ArticleDOI
Infrared spectra and structures of isotopically enriched sulfur (S3 and S4) in solid argon
TL;DR: In this paper, a microwave-powered argon discharge and condensed at 12 K was used to reveal strong bands at 680.0, 676.2, 661.6, and 642.4 cm{sup {minus}1}, which were also observed by thermal dissociation of S{sub 8} flowing in a quartz tube heated to 400-900{degree}C.
Journal ArticleDOI
Infrared Spectra and Structures of the Stable CuH2-, AgH2-, AuH2-, and AuH4- Anions and the AuH2 Molecule
Lester Andrews,Xuefeng Wang +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors identified new molecular anions from matrix infrared spectra with isotopic substitution (HD, D(2), and H(2) + D (2)) and comparison to frequencies calculated by density functional theory.
Journal ArticleDOI
Infrared spectra of OC–HX hydrogen‐bonded complexes in solid argon
TL;DR: The hydrogen-bonded OC-HX (X=F, Cl, Br) has been prepared by condensing Ar/HX and Ar/CO reagent mixtures at 12 K.
