LiBF4‐Induced Rearrangement and Desymmetrization of a Palladium‐Ligand Assembly

Rosario Scopelliti, Kay Severin, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Sylvain Alexandre Marie Sudan

Thirteen palladium-ligand assemblies with different structures and topologies were investigated for the ability to bind lithium ions. In one case, the addition of LiBF4 resulted in a profound structural rearrangement, converting a dincluclear [Pd2L4]2 comp ...

UV and IR Spectroscopy of Transition Metal–Crown Ether Complexes in the Gas Phase: Mn2+(benzo-15-crown-5)(H2O)0–2

Thomas Rizzo, Yoshiya Inokuchi

Ultraviolet photodissociation (UVPD) and IR–UV double-resonance spectroscopy are performed for bare and microhydrated complexes of Mn2+(benzo-15-crown-5), Mn2+(B15C5)(H2O)n (n = 0–2), under cold (∼10 K) gas-phase conditions. Density functional theory (DFT) ...

Incorporation of rubidium cations into perovskite solar cells improves photovoltaic performance

Michael Graetzel, Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Wolfgang Richard Tress, Ulf Anders Hagfeldt, Michael Saliba, Antonio Abate, Juan-Pablo Correa-Baena, Konrad Domanski, Jiyoun Seo, Amita Ummadisingu

All of the cations currently used in perovskite solar cells abide by the tolerance factor for incorporation into the lattice. We show that the small and oxidation-stable rubidium cation (Rb+) can be embedded into a "cation cascade" to create perovskite mat ...

Laser Spectroscopic Study of Cold Host–Guest Complexes of Crown Ethers in the Gas Phase

Thomas Rizzo, Oleg Boyarkine, Yoshiya Inokuchi

A laser spectroscopic study on the structure and dynamics of cold host–guest inclusion complexes of crown ethers (CEs) with various neutral and ionic species in the gas phase is presented. The complexes with neutral guest species are formed by using supers ...
