Low to High Spin-State Transition Induced by Charge Ordering in Antiferromagnetic YBaCo 2 O 5

TL;DR: The oxygen-deficient double perovskite YBaCo2O5, containing corner-linked CoO5 square pyramids as principal building units, undergoes a paramagnetic to antiferromagnetic spin ordering at 330 K, the first observation of a spin-state transition induced by long-range orbital and charge ordering.
Journal ArticleDOI

The crystal structure of magnesium dicarbide

TL;DR: The crystal structure of MgC 2 was solved from powder X-ray and neutron diffraction data as discussed by the authors, and the crystal structure contains C 2 groups, with a triple-bond length of 1.215(6) A and a weak interaction between Mg and the triple bond of the crossing chains above and below.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oxidation State, A Long-Standing Issue

TL;DR: A project was initiated “Toward Comprehensive Definition of Oxidation State”, led by the author of this Essay, and its results have recently been published in an extensive Technical Report.
Journal ArticleDOI

Toward a comprehensive definition of oxidation state (IUPAC Technical Report)

TL;DR: In this article, a generic definition of oxidation state (OS) is formulated: "The OS of a bonded atom equals its charge after ionic approximation" and two principal algorithms are outlined for OS determination of an atom in a compound; one based on composition, the other on topology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comprehensive definition of oxidation state (IUPAC Recommendations 2016)

TL;DR: In this paper, two principal algorithms for OS determination in a chemical compound described by a Lewis formula or bond graph are outlined; typical origins of ambiguous OS values are pointed out, and the relationship between OS and the dn electron configuration of transition metals is commented on.
