Organo-Zintl-based superatoms: [Ge₉(CHO)₃] and [Ge₉(CHO)]

Journal Article Reddy, G. Naaresh ; Jena, Puru ; Giri, Santanab - Chemical Physics Letters

A systematic study, based on density functional theory and different hybrid functionals for exchange-correlation potential, shows that the electron affinities of organo-zintl clusters [Ge₉(R)_n] [R = CHO;n = 1, 3] are close to that of chlorine (3.6 eV) and iodine (3.0 eV). A detailed study of the molecular orbitals of these complexes, when compared to those of Al₁₃^-,Cl^- and I^-, confirm that they behave as super atoms, mimicking the chemistry of halogens. This study expands the scope of superatoms by including a new class of pseudo-halogens based on ligated organo-Zintl ions.

Competition between proton transfer and elimination in the reactions of strong bases with fluoroethanes in the gas phase. Influence of base strength on reactivity.

Journal Article Sullivan, S A ; Beauchamp, J L - J. Am. Chem. Soc.; (United States)

Fluoroethanes react with strong bases in the gas phase by proton transfer, elimination of HF, and production of F/sup -/. Ion cyclotron resonance spectroscopy has been used to examine the relative importance of these processes for a series of bases of varying strength, including NH/sub 2//sup -/, OH/sup -/, CH/sub 3/O/sup -/, CH/sub 3/CH/sub 2/O/sup -/, (CH/sub 3/)/sub 2/CHO/sup -/, (CH/sub 3/)/sub 3/CO/sup -/, F/sup -/, and CN/sup -/. Reactant base strength is the principal factor determining product distributions. With decreasing base strength, the amount of proton transfer decreases relative to elimination. Observed proton transfer reactions establish limits for themore »« less

Unique reactivity of B in B[Ge₉Y₃]₃ (Y = H, CH₃, BO, CN): formation of a Lewis base

Journal Article Reddy, G. Naaresh ; Parida, Rakesh ; Inostroza-Rivera, R. ; ... - Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics. PCCP

Boron compounds usually exhibit Lewis acidity at the boron center due to the presence of vacant p-orbitals. We show that this chemistry can be altered by an appropriate choice of ligands to decorate the boron center. To elucidate this effect, we studied the interactions of boron with two classes of ligands, one based on penta-substituted phenyl species (C₆X₅, X = F, BO, CN) and the other based on Zintl-ion-based groups (Ge₉Y₃, Y = H, CH₃, BO, CN). An in-depth analysis of the charges and Fukui function values at the local atomic sites of the substituted boron derivatives B(C₆X₅)₃ and B[Ge₉Y₃]₃more »« less
