The reversible one-electron insertion into mono- and 1,4-di-substituted benzene derivatives is favored by dialkoxyboron and especially by dialkylboron groups. The assumption that it should be the symmetric e2u benzene molecular orbital which is occupied in the resulting radical anions can be supported by comparison of ESR coupling constants.
The photoelectron (PE) spectra of dicyano methane and of its dimethyl derivative are tentatively assigned on the basis of a simple MO model. The interactions defined therein between the two cyano groups as well as with the R2C-framework can be parametrized using the PE data. Thus the hyperconjugation πCN/πCR₂ is estimated to amount to 1.7 eV in both compounds. Hyperconjugative effects in methane derivatives H3CX and H2CX2 with X = Br, Cl and CN are compared.
Photoelectron (PE) spectra of ethylene and vinylene carbonates and thiocarbonates as well as of methylene trithiocarbonate and some open-chain derivatives are reported.
The low energy bands, well separated in the unsaturated compounds, are assigned to lone pair and π type ionizations. The assignment is based on comparison of PE spectra, modified CNDO calculations, and sulfur Κβ emission spectra. The pronounced substituent effects due to which the first ionization potential varies from 8.4 eV to 11.1 eV are discussed.
The well-resolved helium(I) photoelectron spectrum of H3C-Se—Se-CH3 exhibits distinct bands corresponding to 11 of the total 13 valence electron ionizations. The unequivocal assignment is supported by EHMO calculations including spin/orbit coupling. The two selenium lone pair ionizations differ by 0.23 eV; a split observed also for dimethyl disulfide and discussed within a general model for interactions between adjacent lone pairs.
The photoelectron spectrum of H5C6-Te-CH3 displays in its low energy region overlapping bands of gas-phase conformers. Depending on the dihedral angle between the plane of the phenyl ring and the tellurium lone pair, the π conjugation amounts to only 0.1 eV and 0.3 eV, respectively. These values are compared to the considerably larger ones found for the analogous phenyl derivatives H5C6-X-CH3 with X = O, S and Se.
The He(I) photoelectron spectra of the following molecules with S·̱·̱̱·̱·̱·̱̱·̱N multiple bonds ... are assigned by radical cation state comparison between the chemically related compounds as well as by MO models based on CNDO calculations. From the ionisation energies of the O=S=O/HN=S=O pair a parameter απSN can be deduced, which proves to be useful in the discussion of other SN compounds like R3C-N=S=O and RN=S=NR.
Novel radical anions of trimethylstannyl substituted naphthalenes and their ESR spectra are reported. Both 119 Sn and 117 Sn coupling can be assigned unequivocally. The perturbation of π systems by R3X substituents of group IV b elements X = C, Si, Ge, Sn and Pb is discussed with respect to photoelectron ionization potentials, charge transfer excitations, half-wave reduction potentials and ESR spin distribution.
Triphenylphosphane 1, its oxide 2 and sulfide 3 undergo one-electron reduction at a mercury cathode in DMF to yield the corresponding radical anions. ESE analysis of the paramagnetic species is facilitated by deuteration and suggests a pyramidal geometry of the radicals. Reduction with potassium metal in DME at low temperature yields also radical anions for 2 and 3. The phosphane 1, however, reacts under phenyl cleavage and potassiumphenyl-assisted ring closure to the dianion of 5H-dibenzophosphole 4. This radical 4· ⊖⊖ is also obtainod by alkali metal reduction of P-phenyldibenzophosphole o, and its spin distribution is compared to iso-.-π-electronic radicals containing CH, N, O, S, or Se links instead of the phosphorus atom.
In the pyrolysis of 1,2,3-benzoselenodiazole using a short-distance furnace, a short-lived intermediate is detected photoelectron spectroscopically. Mass spectra recorded under similar conditions suggest an isomer C6H4Se rearranging to the more stable final product 6-fulveneselone. The ionization pattern obtained by computerized spectra stripping is assigned to benzselenirene by molecular radical cation state comparison based on MNDO calculations.
