  • Coordination Chemistry of Xenon
    Coordination Chemistry of Xenon Paul Griffin Literature Seminar 11/14/19 Situated on the far side of the periodic table, the chemical inertness of the noble gases has led to their widespread applications ranging from gas-discharge lamps and ion engines for space travel to medical applications including as MRI contrast agents and radiotherapy.1 Though all practical applications of the noble gases center around Xe (0), understanding the reactivity and bonding of xenon in higher oxidation states is fundamental to investigating chemistry at the far end of the periodic table. The reactivity of the noble gases, in particular xenon, was first uncovered when Bartlett, who had previously prepared dioxygenyl hexafluoroplatinate (V) (O2PtF6), noted similar ionization energies for molecular oxygen and atomic xenon (a difference of 0.1 eV).2 Mixing of xenon with PtF6 vapor led to the formation of an orange-yellow solid led to the synthesis of the first noble gas compound, xenon hexafluoroplatinate (V) (XePtF6). The chemistry of xenon has evolved significantly since its’ discovery to include an assortment of xenon fluorides, oxides, oxylfluorides, organoxenon3, and metalloxenon compounds such as the tetraxenoaurate (II) cation (Figure 1).4 These species have weak covalent bonding between Xe and the oxygen/fluorine moieties.5 The chemistry of xenon is dominated by the 2+, 4+, and 6+ oxidation states, though Xe (VIII) compounds are known in the form of perxenates and xenon tetroxide. These primarily ionic species, particularly the oxides, oxylfluorides, and fluorides, serve as precursors to noncovalent adducts of xenon. Figure 1. Organoxenon and metalloxenon species Recent work has led to the preparation of xenon adducts with noncovalently interacting ligands such as acetonitrile6a, 6b, ketones6c, sulfoxides6c, and crown ethers6d (Figure 2) capable of weakly coordinating to xenon salts to afford stable species at room temperature.

  • Chapter 5 Molecular Orbitals
    Chapter 5 Molecular Orbitals Molecular orbital theory uses group theory to describe the bonding in molecules ; it comple- ments and extends the introductory bonding models in Chapter 3 . In molecular orbital theory the symmetry properties and relative energies of atomic orbitals determine how these orbitals interact to form molecular orbitals. The molecular orbitals are then occupied by the available electrons according to the same rules used for atomic orbitals as described in Sections 2.2.3 and 2.2.4 . The total energy of the electrons in the molecular orbitals is compared with the initial total energy of electrons in the atomic orbitals. If the total energy of the electrons in the molecular orbitals is less than in the atomic orbitals, the molecule is stable relative to the separate atoms; if not, the molecule is unstable and predicted not to form. We will first describe the bonding, or lack of it, in the first 10 homonuclear diatomic molecules ( H2 through Ne2 ) and then expand the discussion to heteronuclear diatomic molecules and molecules having more than two atoms. A less rigorous pictorial approach is adequate to describe bonding in many small mole- cules and can provide clues to more complete descriptions of bonding in larger ones. A more elaborate approach, based on symmetry and employing group theory, is essential to under- stand orbital interactions in more complex molecular structures. In this chapter, we describe the pictorial approach and develop the symmetry methodology required for complex cases. 5.1 Formation of Molecular Orbitals from Atomic Orbitals As with atomic orbitals, Schrödinger equations can be written for electrons in molecules.

  • "Noble-Gas Chemistry and the Periodic System of Mendeleev" By
    "Noble-Gas Chemistry and The Periodic System of Mendeleev" By Neil Bartlett Materials and Molecular Research Division, Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory and Department of Chemistry, University of California Berkeley, California U.S.A. The Stable Noble-Gas Electron Configuration When, in 1962, chemists were informed that a compound of a noble- gas had been prepared', there was much expression of surprise and ini- tially even disbelief. Faith in the chemical inertness of the noble gases had been fostered in part by previous failures to prepare compounds. The greatest prejudice, however, derived from the electronic theories of the chemical bond, which stressed the noble-gas electron arrangement as the ideal to which all other atoms tended. When the noble gases were discovered2, in the last years of the 19th Century, they were quickly recognized as a new Group of elements of Mende- * leev's Table of The Elements. This new Group of elements fitted naturally into the "Table", each noble-gas being located .between a halogen and an alkali metal. Since the Halogens included the most strongly oxidizing elements, whereas the Alkali Metals were the most strongly reducing ele- ments of the Periodic Table, it was appropriate, for the intervening group of elements, to exhibit neither oxidizing nor reducing properties, i.e. to be chemically unreactive. All efforts to oxidize or reduce helium and argon' (i.e. to bring them into chemical combination with other elements) failed!, perhaps the most significant failure being Moissan's attempt in 1895 to prepare an argon fluoride3. The rarer noble gases were not sub- jected to the same intensive chemical investigation, and no claim for chemical activity of the gases was sustained prior to 1962.
