On the basis of Raman spectroscopic experiments and the computational assignment of the SN vibrations to small wavenumbers (640 ± 920 cm À1 ), the bonding in sulfur triimides is interpreted to be mainly electrostatic (b S + ÀN 7 À) rather than covalent (S(NR) 3 ).
Cu+ and Cu0 centers are found in the mixed valent compounds [Cu32As30(dppm)8] (structure shown in the picture) and [Cu26Te12(PEt2Ph)12] which formally contain a Cu3230+ or a Cu2624+ cluster core, respectively. Calculations of the electronic band structure show that a localization of the formal oxidation states is impossible. Both compounds contain a central Cu6 octahedron. The short Cu−Cu bonds do not result from d10–d10 interactions. dppm=methylene[(diphenyl)phosphine].
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
