A matrix isolation study of the C s symmetric OCNO ( X 2 A 00 ) radical Corey

چکیده
Here we report the first experimental detection of the Cs symmetric nitroformyl radical, OCNO(X A00) in a nitrogen–carbon dioxide matrix at 10 K using a Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR). The n1 vibrational frequency was observed at 2113 cm . This assignment was confirmed by follow-up experiments using isotopically labeled reactant molecules (N, O, C). To synthesize this radical, we irradiated solid nitrogen– carbon dioxide ice mixtures with energetic electrons at 10 K. Suprathermal nitrogen atoms in their electronic ground and/or first electronically excited state were generated via the radiation induced degradation of molecular nitrogen; these atoms could then react with carbon dioxide to eventually yield the nitroformyl radical. We also investigated the kinetics of the formation of the nitroformyl radical and support the arguments with computations on the doublet and quartet OCNO potential energy surfaces (PESs).

The (R,S)-symmetric and (R,S)-skew symmetric solutions of the pair of matrix equations A1XB1 = C1 and A2XB2 = C2
Let $Rin textbf{C}^{mtimes m}$ and $Sin textbf{C}^{ntimes n}$ be nontrivial involution matrices; i.e., $R=R^{-1}neq pm~I$ and $S=S^{-1}neq pm~I$. An $mtimes n$ complex matrix $A$ is said to be an $(R, S)$-symmetric ($(R, S)$-skew symmetric) matrix if $RAS =A$ ($ RAS =-A$). The $(R, S)$-symmetric and $(R, S)$-skew symmetric matrices have a number of special properties and widely used in eng...
متن کاملThe exponential functions of central-symmetric $X$-form matrices
It is well known that the matrix exponential function has practical applications in engineering and applied sciences. In this paper, we present some new explicit identities to the exponential functions of a special class of matrices that are known as central-symmetric $X$-form. For instance, $e^{mathbf{A}t}$, $t^{mathbf{A}}$ and $a^{mathbf{A}t}$ will be evaluated by the new formulas in this par...
متن کاملSecond symmetric powers of chain complexes
We investigate Buchbaum and Eisenbud's construction of the second symmetric power $s_R(X)$ of a chain complex $X$ of modules over a commutative ring $R$. We state and prove a number of results from the folklore of the subject for which we know of no good direct references. We also provide several explicit computations and examples. We use this construction to prove the following vers...
