X-ray emission study of the electronic structure of binuclear niobium complexes with (S2)2–disulfide bridging ligands

详细

The electronic structure of binuclear niobium complexes [Nb₂S₄(acac)₄] and K₄[Nb₂S₄(ox)4] is studied by X-ray emission fluorescent spectroscopy and quantum chemistry techniques. Data on the partial atomic composition of highest occupied molecular orbitals of the complexes are obtained. The energy positions of bonding and antibonding frontier molecular orbitals observed in the X-ray emission spectra of binuclear [Nb₂((S₂)^2–)₂]⁴⁺ clusters are determined by the analysis of overlap populations.
