    Interatomic and Intermolecular Coulombic Decay
    (Washington, DC : ACS Publ., 2020) Jahnke, Till; Hergenhahn, Uwe; Winter, Bernd; Dörner, Reinhard; Frühling, Ulrike; Demekhin, Philipp V.; Gokhberg, Kirill; Cederbaum, Lorenz S.; Ehresmann, Arno; Knie, André; Dreuw, Andreas
    Interatomic or intermolecular Coulombic decay (ICD) is a nonlocal electronic decay mechanism occurring in weakly bound matter. In an ICD process, energy released by electronic relaxation of an excited atom or molecule leads to ionization of a neighboring one via Coulombic electron interactions. ICD has been predicted theoretically in the mid nineties of the last century, and its existence has been confirmed experimentally approximately ten years later. Since then, a number of fundamental and applied aspects have been studied in this quickly growing field of research. This review provides an introduction to ICD and draws the connection to related energy transfer and ionization processes. The theoretical approaches for the description of ICD as well as the experimental techniques developed and employed for its investigation are described. The existing body of literature on experimental and theoretical studies of ICD processes in different atomic and molecular systems is reviewed. © 2020 American Chemical Society

    A selective route to aryl-triphosphiranes and their titanocene-induced fragmentation
    (Cambridge : RSC, 2019) Schumann, André; Reiß, Fabian; Jiao, Haijun; Rabeah, Jabor; Siewert, Jan-Erik; Krummenacher, Ivo; Braunschweig, Holger; Hering-Junghans, Christian
    Triphosphiranes are three-membered phosphorus cycles and their fundamental reactivity has been studied in recent decades. We recently developed a high-yielding, selective synthesis for various aryl-substituted triphosphiranes. Variation of the reaction conditions in combination with theoretical studies helped to rationalize the formation of these homoleptic phosphorus ring systems and highly reactive intermediates could be isolated. In addition we showed that a titanocene synthon [Cp2Ti(btmsa)] facilitates the selective conversion of these triphosphiranes into titanocene diphosphene complexes. This unexpected reactivity mode was further studied theoretically and experimental evidence is presented for the proposed reaction mechanism. This journal is © The Royal Society of Chemistry.

    Endohedral metal-nitride cluster ordering in metallofullerene-NiII(OEP) complexes and crystals : A theoretical study
    (Cambridge : RSC Publ., 2019) Dubrovin, Vasilii; Gan, Li-Hua; Büchner, Bernd; Popov, Alexey A.; Avdoshenko, Stanislav M.
    The ordering of endohedral clusterfullerenes Sc3N@C80 and YSc2N@C80 co-crystallized with Ni(OEP) and isolated complexes with Ni(OEP) have been investigated theoretically. Having used multiple orientations of M3N clusters inside the cages with Fibonacci sampling, we describe the effect of intermolecular interactions on the orientation of the endohedral cluster. © the Owner Societies.
