Radiation detection (dosimetry) most commonly uses scintillating materials in a wide array of fields, ranging from energy to medicine. Scintillators must be able to not only fluoresce owing to the presence of a suitable chromophore but also withstand damage from radiation over prolonged periods of time. While it is inevitable that radiation will cause damage to the physical and chemical properties of materials, there is limited understanding of features within solid-state scintillators that afford increased structural integrity upon exposure to gamma (γ) radiation.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focuses on the reactivity of two mononuclear Cu(II) chlorodiketonate complexes regarding their carbon-carbon bond cleavage when interacting with oxygen and their dependence on anions and water.
  • The bpy-ligated complex shows higher reactivity with O, requiring added chloride to enhance its reaction, while the 6-PhTPA complex does not need additional chloride.
  • Computational analysis reveals that water significantly lowers the activation barrier for oxygen interaction more than changing the anion from perchlorate to chloride, indicating distinct ligand effects on the C-C cleavage pathways in these complexes.

The mol-ecular structure of tricarbon-yl[η-6--(tri-phenyl-phosphino)cyclo-hepta-2,4-dien-1-one]iron(0) tetra-fluoro-borate di-chloro-methane hemisolvate, [Fe(CHO)(CO)]BF·0.5CHCl, as determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction is reported. The two independent tricarbon-yl[η-6--(tri-phenyl-phosphino)cyclo-hepta-2,4-dien-1-one] iron(0) cations and their corresponding anions form dimers, which constitute the asymmetric unit of the structure parallel to the (100) plane.
