  • Problems for Chapter 17
    Molecular Modeling Problems Chapter 17 1. Argon Compounds? One of the major advantages of calculation over experiment is that “reality does not get in the way”. It is no harder to investigate the properties of labile compounds that may be difficult to isolate and characterize experimentally than it is to investigate those of stable compounds. In fact, it is possible to say whether experimental characterization can ever be achieved, that is, if the molecule of interest is actually an energy minimum. Noble gas compounds illustrate this. While xenon compounds are now numerous and a few compounds of krypton have now been reported, no argon compounds have been isolated or characterized. Do argon analogues of known xenon and krypton compounds actually exist (in the sense that they represent energy minima)? If so, do they exhibit similar geometries and charge distribution as their analogues? Obtain equilibrium geometries for argon difluoride, krypton difluoride and xenon difluoride using the Hartree-Fock 3-21G model. Start from bent structures even though. KrF2 and XeF2 are known to be linear (and ArF2 might very well be assumed to be linear as well). While the geometry optimization is able to move from a non-linear to a linear structure, it cannot do the reverse. Follow each optimization by an infrared spectrum calculation to tell you whether or not the structure is actually an energy minimum. Are KrF2 and XeF2 linear molecules? Is the calculated Kr-F bond distance in reasonable accord with the experimental value of 1.89Ǻ (the bond distance in XeF2 linear is not known)? Is ArF2 an energy minimum? Is it linear? If ArF2 is an energy minimum, is dissociation to Ar and F2 endothermic or exothermic? Are the corresponding dissociations of KrF2 and XeF2 endothermic or exothermic? Obtain electrostatic potential maps for the three compounds and display side by side on screen (and on the same scale).

  • Noble Gas Bonding Interactions Involving Xenon Oxides and Fluorides
    molecules Review Noble Gas Bonding Interactions Involving Xenon Oxides and Fluorides Antonio Frontera Department of Chemistry, Universitat de les Illes Balears, Crta de valldemossa km 7.5, 07122 Palma de Mallorca (Baleares), Spain; [email protected] Academic Editor: Felice Grandinetti Received: 17 July 2020; Accepted: 27 July 2020; Published: 28 July 2020 Abstract: Noble gas (or aerogen) bond (NgB) can be outlined as the attractive interaction between an electron-rich atom or group of atoms and any element of Group-18 acting as an electron acceptor. The IUPAC already recommended systematic nomenclature for the interactions of groups 17 and 16 (halogen and chalcogen bonds, respectively). Investigations dealing with noncovalent interactions involving main group elements (acting as Lewis acids) have rapidly grown in recent years. They are becoming acting players in essential fields such as crystal engineering, supramolecular chemistry, and catalysis. For obvious reasons, the works devoted to the study of noncovalent Ng-bonding interactions are significantly less abundant than halogen, chalcogen, pnictogen, and tetrel bonding. Nevertheless, in this short review, relevant theoretical and experimental investigations on noncovalent interactions involving Xenon are emphasized. Several theoretical works have described the physical nature of NgB and their interplay with other noncovalent interactions, which are discussed herein. Moreover, exploring the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD) and Inorganic Crystal Structure Database (ICSD), it is demonstrated that NgB interactions are crucial in governing the X-ray packing of xenon derivatives. Concretely, special attention is given to xenon fluorides and xenon oxides, since they exhibit a strong tendency to establish NgBs. Keywords: noble gas interactions; noncovalent interactions; crystal packing; xenon 1.

  • Chemistry of Noble Gases
    Prepared by: Dr. Ambika Kumar Asst. Prof. in Chemistry B. N. College Bhagalpur Contact No. 7542811733 e-mail ID: [email protected] Unit VI- Chemistry of Noble Gases The noble gases make up a group of chemical elements with similar properties; under standard conditions, they are all odorless, colorless, monatomic gases with very low chemical reactivity. The six naturally occurring noble gases are helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, and the radioactive radon. Chemistry of Xenon (Xe) Xenon (Xe), chemical element, a heavy and extremely rare gas of Group 18 (noble gases) of the periodic table. It was the first noble gas found to form true chemical compounds. More than 4.5 times heavier than air, xenon is colourless, odourless, and tasteless. Solid xenon belongs to the face-centred cubic crystal system, which implies that its molecules, which consist of single atoms, behave as spheres packed together as closely as possible. The name xenon is derived from the Greek word xenos, “strange” or “foreign.” Compounds of Xenon Not all the noble gases combine with oxygen and fluorine. Only the heavier noble gases like Xe (larger atomic radius) will react with oxygen and fluorine. Noble gas form compounds with oxygen and fluorine only because they are most electronegative elements. So they can ionise Xenon easily. 1.Xenon Fluorides: Xenon forms three fluorides, XeF2, XeF4 and XeF6. These can be obtained by the direct interaction between xenon and fluorine under appropriate experimental conditions, XeF2, XeF4 and XeF6 are colourless crystalline solids and sublime readily at 298 K. They are powerful fluorinating agents.

Academic Editor: Ralf Haiges Received: 29 September 2017; Accepted: 25 October 2017; Published: 28 October 2017 Abstract: Since the synthesis of the first krypton compound, several other Kr-bearing connections have been obtained. However, in all of them krypton adopts the +2 oxidation state, in contrast to xenon which forms numerous compounds with an oxidation state as high as +8. Motivated by the possibility of thermodynamic stabilization of exotic compounds with the use of high pressure (exceeding 1 GPa = 10 kbar), we present here theoretical investigations into the chemistry of krypton and fluorine at such large compression. In particular we focus on krypton tetrafluoride, KrF4, a molecular crystal in which krypton forms short covalent bonds with neighboring fluorine atoms thus adopting the +4 oxidation state. We find that this hitherto unknown compound can be stabilized at pressures below 50 GPa. Our results indicate also that, at larger compressions, a multitude of other KrmFn fluorides should be stable, among them KrF which exhibits covalent Kr–Kr bonds.
