Nuclides in the vicinity of 94Ag have been studied with the Penning trap mass spectrometer JYFLTRAP at the Ion-Guide Isotope Separator On-Line. The masses of the two-proton-decay daughter 92Rh and the beta-decay daughter 94Pd of the high-spin isomer in 94Ag have been measured, and the masses of 93Pd and 94Ag have been deduced. When combined with the data from the one-proton- or two-proton-decay experiments, the results lead to contradictory mass excess values for the high-spin isomer in 94Ag, -46 370(170) or -44 970(100) keV, corresponding to excitation energies of 6960(400) or 8360(370) keV, respectively.

The temperature dependence of Mössbauer quadrupole splitting values: a quantum chemical analysis.
Chem Commun (Camb)

The two key parameters extracted from Mössbauer spectroscopy, isomer shift and quadrupole splitting, have well-known temperature dependencies. While the behavior of the values following a temperature change has long been known, its microscopic origins are less clear. For quantum chemical calculations - formally representing the situation at 0 K - significant discrepancies with the experiment can arise, especially at elevated temperatures.

In this study, we systematically explored the stability and isomerism of neutral and dehydrogenated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in various charge states, focusing on anthracene, acridine, and phenazine. Our findings highlight key aspects that deepen the understanding of these molecules' reactivity and stability, relevant in both laboratory and astrophysical contexts. Structural symmetry and the presence of nitrogen atoms significantly impact PAH stability and reactivity.

First prepared in the late 70s, the pro-ligand 1,3-bis(3,5-dioxo-1-hexyl)benzene (Hbdhb) contains two acetoacetyl terminations linked to a central 1,3-phenylene unit through dimethylene bridges. Since each termination can be either in diketonic or keto-enolic form, in organic solution it exists as a mixture of three spectroscopically resolvable tautomers. In the presence of pyridine, Co and the bdhb anion form a crystalline dimeric compound with formula [Co(bdhb)(py)] (2) and a Co⋯Co separation of more than 11 Å.

Article Synopsis
- A study using density functional theory examines both pure scandium (Sc) and boron-doped Sc clusters, identifying B@Sc clusters as the smallest doped cages with an octahedral shape.
- The research indicates a size-dependent transition in the clusters at a specific size (N=6), changing the placement of the B atom from outside to inside the Sc cage.
- B doping improves the stability of Sc clusters, promotes high spin states, and reveals energy differences among stable spin states through molecular orbital analysis.
Symmetry Breaking in a Triferrous Extended Metal Atom Chain.

Department of Chemistry, Furman University, Greenville, South Carolina 29613, United States.
Semilocal and random phase approximation (RPA) density functional theory (DFT) and complete active space (CASSCF + NEVPT2) methodologies were applied to investigate a new class of extended metal atom chain (EMAC) complexes. A novel triferrous complex has been synthesized recently that does not utilize the usual 2,2'-dipyridylamine (dpa) ligand framework, which essentially always results in a tetragonal coordination environment and general formula M(dpa)X, where X is an anion. Instead, the triferrous complex utilizes a dianionic, 2,6-bis(trimethylsilylamido)pyridine ligand (L) resulting in the formation of trigonal complexes with general formula .
