چکیده

The ligand (tBu2PCH2SiMe2)2N1- (PNP) in [PNP]RuCl leads to an intermediate spin ground state, S = 1, which has been characterized by NMR and X-ray diffraction as having a planar structure. This spin state is attributed in part to N --> Ru pi donation. DFT calculations confirm that the singlet state lies higher in energy and is nonplanar. The molecule is converted to a diamagnetic product by addition of 2 mol of PhCN. The half-filled orbitals of the S = 1 state are suggested to be the reason agostic interactions do not compensate for the 14-valence electron count.

Effect of Temperature and Pressure on Correlation Energy in a Triplet State of a Two Electron Spherical Quantum Dot

The combined effect of hydrostatic pressure and temperature on correlation energy in a triplet state of two electron spherical quantum dot with square well potential is computed. The result is presented taking GaAs dot as an example. Our result shows the correlation energies are i)negative in the triplet state contrast to the singlet state ii) it increases with increase in pressure  iii)further...

Plasma Wave Acceleration of Electron in Bubble Regime in Presence of a Planar Wiggler

The plasma wave acceleration of electron in the bubble regime is investigated in a new configuration containing a planar wiggler. The space-charge field of the laser-created ion channel can focuse and stabilize the electron trajectory to guide it toward the acceleration region. The high-gradient plasma wave field can resonantly accelerate the trapped electron to higher energies in the presence ...

Electronic excitation and ionization spectra of azabenzenes: Pyridine revisited by the symmetry-adapted cluster configuration interaction method

Electronic excited and ionized states of pyridine were reinvestigated by the symmetry-adapted cluster configuration interaction ~SAC-CI! method using an extended basis set and a wide active space. The present SAC-CI results for the singlet and triplet excited states are greatly improved and agree well with the experimental observations, providing a firm assignment of all low-lying n→p* and p→p*...

Electronic States of Aminonitrene ( 1 , l - Diazine ) . A Study of the Endwise Bonding of Dinitrogenla

The ground and excited states of aminonitrene (1 ,I-diazine), H2NN, were studied using generalized valence bond (GVB) and configuration interaction (GVB-CI) wave functions. We find that the ground state is a singlet state ( 'Ai) with the triplet (3A2) lying 15 kcal/mol higher. ( In the Hartree-Fock description, the triplet state is 5 kcal below the singlet, indicating the necessity of including...

Theoretical study of the singlet and triplet vertical electronic transitions of styrene by the symmetry adapted cluster-configuration interaction method

The ground state, singlet! singlet and singlet! triplet vertical excited states of styrene have been studied by using the symmetry adapted cluster-configuration interaction (SAC-CI) method with aug-cc-pVDZ basis sets supplemented with molecule-centered Rydberg functions. The characteristic structures of the bands observed in the vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) and electron energy loss (EEL) spectra ha...
