Matrix Infrared Spectroscopic and Theoretical of the Difluoroamino Metal Fluoride Molecules: F2NMF (M = Cu, Ag, Au)
The difluoroamino coinage metal fluoride molecules F2NMF (M = Cu, Ag, Au) have been made via spontaneous reactions of coinage metals and NF3 in solid argon and neon matrixes during sample annealing without formation of the M(NF3) complexes. Comparisons between the matrix infrared spectra and the density functional frequency calculations provide strong support for identification of the F2NMF molecules, which are found to have doublet ground states with C-2 nu or near C-2 nu geometries. The F2NCuF molecule can isomerize to the less stable FNCuF2 isomer upon UV-visible irradiation, while no similar reactions were observed for the silver and gold species. The M-N bonds in the F2NMF molecules are stronger than those in the FNMF2 isomers with the Ag-N bond being longest and weakest in both cases.
