Title: Bonding of Multiple Noble-Gas Atoms to CUO in Solid Neon: CUO(Ng)(n) (Ng= Ar, Kr, Xe; n= 1, 2, 3, 4) Complexes and the Singlet-Triplet Crossover Point

Journal Article · · Chemistry - a European Journal

Laser-ablated U atoms codeposited with CO in excess neon produce the novel CUO molecule, which forms distinct Ng complexes (Ng= Ar, Kr, Xe) with the heavier noble gases. The CUO(Ng) complexes are identified through CO isotopic and Ng reagent substitution and comparison to results of DFT frequency calculations.
