The microwave spectrum and structure of krypton--phosphorus trifluoride
The rotational spectrum of the weak complex between krypton and phosphorus trifluoride has been observed using a Fourier transform microwave spectrometer with a pulsed supersonic nozzle molecular beam source. The complex is an asymmetric top. The distance rcm between the krypton atom and the center of mass of the PF3 molecule is 4.0722 A and the angle between the rcm vector and the C3 axis of the PF3 is 68.25[deg]. Based on the centrifugal distortion constant DJ and a pseudodiatomic model, the binding energy of the complex is estimated to be 218 cm-1.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/27096/1/0000087.pd
Molecular structures of gas‐phase polyatomic molecules determined by spectroscopic methods
Spectroscopic data related to the structures of polyatomic molecules in the gas phase have been reviewed, critically evaluated, and compiled. All reported bond distances and angles have been classified as equilibrium (re), average (rz), substitution (rs), or effective (ro) parameters, and have been given a quality rating which is a measure of the parameter uncertainty. The surveyed literature includes work from all of the areas of gas‐phase spectroscopy from which precise quantitative structural information can be derived. Introductory material includes definitions of the various types of parameters and a description of the evaluation procedure.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/87746/2/619_1.pd
The chlorine nuclear quadrupole coupling tensor in chlorotrifluoroethylene
The 273 hyperfine components from 56 rotational transitions of chlorotrifluoroethylene were measured with a Fourier transform microwave spectrometer. A global least-squares fit was made to the rotational constants, quartic distortion constants, and 35Cl quadrupole coupling constants; the RMS deviation of the fit was 1.6 kHz. It is shown that such high-resolution measurements enable [chi]ab to be determined without the near degeneracies usually necessary with less precise data. The principle tensor quadrupole coupling constants are x[chi]zz = -77.46(10), xxx = 38.85(10), and [chi]yy = xcc = 38.614(3) MHz. The values are comparable to other vinyl chlorides, removing some anomalies from previous studies.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/27550/1/0000594.pd
The microwave spectrum, structure and dipole moment of 1,4-pentadiyne
The microwave spectra of 1,4-pentadiyne and 1,4-pentadiyne-1,5-d2 are assigned and rotational and centrifugal distortion constants obtained. A unique structure could not be determined. However, analysis of the moments of inertia indicates that the bond distances in C5H4 are close to typical values found in other related compounds. An interaction involving the acetylene moieties is evidenced by the derived bond angles. The data are consistent with either the central CCC angle being close to the tetrahedral value with the acetylene groups pushed away from linearity by approximately 3-4[deg] or opening of the central CCC angle to about 113[deg] along with linear acetylene groups. A range of structures between these two is also possible. The dipole moment is determined to be 0.516(5) D.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/24440/1/0000713.pd
Tandem application of C-C bond-forming reactions with reductive ozonolysis
Several variants of reductive ozonolysis, defined here as the in situ generation of aldehydes or ketones during ozonolytic cleavage of alkenes, are demonstrated to work effectively in tandem with a number of C-C bond-forming reactions. For reactions involving basic nucleophiles (1,2- addition of Grignard reagents, Wittig or Horner-Emmons olefinations, and directed Aldol reactions of lithium enolates) the one-pot process offers a rapid and high-yielding alternative to traditional two-step protocols
