要旨

Molecular complexes between OCS and ClF, Cl2, Br2, or BrCl have for the first time been isolated in solid matrixes at low temperature, and characterized by their IR spectra. 1 : 1 adducts between OCS and ClF, Cl2, or BrCl were formed by broad-band UV-visible photolysis of matrix-isolated FC(O)SCl, ClC(O)SCl or BrC(O)SCl, respectively. Co-deposition of gaseous mixtures of OCS and ClF or Br2 diluted with Ar on a CsI window cooled to approximately 15 K led to the identification of 1 : 1 complexes, while similar mixtures of OCS and Cl2 gave rise mainly to 1 : 2 species. The differences in the structures and stoichiometries of the molecular complexes may well be responsible for the different reaction channels observed for the photochemical matrix reactions between OCS and Cl2 or Br2. The structures, energy differences, vibrational spectra, and bonding properties of all the possible complexes formed between OCS and XY (XY = ClF, Cl2, Br2, or BrCl) have been studied with different theoretical approximations.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
