A new synthetic route for the preparation of [Os3(CO)10(μ-OH)(μ-H)] and its reaction with bis(diphenylphosphino)methane (dppm): syntheses and X-ray structures of two isomers of [Os3(CO)8(μ-OH)(μ-H)(μ-dppm)] and [Os3(CO)7(μ3-CO)(μ3-O)(μ-dppm)] (open access)

A new synthetic route for the preparation of [Os3(CO)10(μ-OH)(μ-H)] and its reaction with bis(diphenylphosphino)methane (dppm): syntheses and X-ray structures of two isomers of [Os3(CO)8(μ-OH)(μ-H)(μ-dppm)] and [Os3(CO)7(μ3-CO)(μ3-O)(μ-dppm)]

Article describes a convenient synthetic method for the preparation of the hydroxy-bridged triosmium cluster [Os₃(CO)₁₀(μ-OH)(μ-H)] along with the re-evaluation of the reaction of this cluster with dppm that has led to the isolation of a new isomer for [Os₃(CO)₈(μ-OH)(μ-H)(μ-dppm)].

Generalized molecular solvation in non-aqueous solutions by a single parameter implicit solvation scheme (open access)

Generalized molecular solvation in non-aqueous solutions by a single parameter implicit solvation scheme

Article presenting a systematic parametrization protocol for the Self-Consistent Continuum Solvation (SCCS) model resulting in optimized parameters for 67 non-aqueous solvents. The parametrization is based on a collection of ≈6000 experimentally measured partition coefficients, which were collected in the Solv@TUM database presented here. The accuracy of the optimized SCCS model is comparable to the well-known universal continuum solvation model (SMx) family of methods, while relying on only a single fit parameter and thereby largely reducing statistical noise.

Cluster embedding of ionic systems: Point charges and extended ions (open access)

Cluster embedding of ionic systems: Point charges and extended ions

This article presents a detailed analysis of the orbital energies of a representative cluster model of a high spin metal oxide, FeO, that has been made to determine the importance of different embedding schemes to represent the extended oxide crystal. The embedding of cluster models of oxides with point charges and with extensions of the embedding which take into account the spatial extent of the cations is examined with an emphasis on the consequences of this embedding for the relative ionization and excitation energies that are measured in core-level spectroscopies.

Correlation consistent basis sets designed for density functional theory: Second-row (Al-Ar) (open access)

Correlation consistent basis sets designed for density functional theory: Second-row (Al-Ar)

Article presenting cc-pV(n+d)Z correlation consistent basis sets of double- through quintuple-ζ quality for the atoms Al-Ar that have been modified for use with density functional theory (DFT). These basis set modifications include truncation of high-angular momentum basis functions, recontraction of the s- and p-functions, and reoptimization of basis function exponents with generalized gradient approximation and hybrid-DFT functionals. The effects of basis set truncation, recontraction, and reoptimization are shown to improve convergence behavior in atomic energies as well as dissociation energies and enthalpies of formation.

Revisiting surface core-level shifts for ionic compounds (open access)

Revisiting surface core-level shifts for ionic compounds

Article establishing a theoretical method which is able to relate the binding energy shifts to the electronic structure of a material. In order to establish such a methodology, the CaO(100) surface to bulk core-level binding energy shifts are studied with Hartree-Fock and density-functional theory methods using both cluster and periodic slab models.
