The radioactive element astatine exists only in trace amounts nature. Its properties can therefore be explored by study of the minute quantities artificially produced isotopes or performing theoretical calculations. One most important influencing chemical behaviour is energy required to remove one electron from valence shell, referred as ionization potential. Here we use laser spectroscopy probe optical spectrum near threshold. observed series Rydberg states enabled first determination...
The resonance ionization laser ion source (RILIS) produces beams for the majority of experiments at ISOLDE on-line isotope separator. A substantial improvement in RILIS performance has been achieved through a series upgrade steps: replacement copper vapor lasers by Nd:YAG laser; old homemade dye new commercial lasers; installation complementary Ti:Sapphire system. combined and system with harmonics is capable generating any wavelength range 210–950 nm. In total, isotopes 31 different...

Self-assembly of a divinylthiophene-bridged diruthenium complex with 2,5-furandicarboxylate leads to the formation two macrocyclic structures that differ solely regard their respective nuclearities. Both supramolecular isomers were fully characterized and conversion hexa- tetraruthenium macrocycle was followed by NMR monitoring.
We report on five tetranuclear metallamacrocycles with particularly large inner voids of up to 19.4 × 18.9 Å. The macrocyclic complexes were obtained by the self-assembly spatially extended organic dicarboxylate linkers two different dinuclear bis(alkenyl) diruthenium precursors. include one pair constitutional isomers, 2-NB and 2-BN, which differ respect whether incorporated triarylamine functionality is part "conductive" π-conjugated (2-NB) or insulating (2-BN). All characterized NMR...
5-Ethynyl-2-furancarboxylic acid and 3-ethynylbenzoic self-assemble with [HRu(CO)Cl(PiPr3 )2 ] to form macrocyclic C3 -symmetric triangular triruthenium alkenyl complexes [{Ru(CO)(PiPr3 (CH=CHArCOO)}3 (Ar=C6 H4 : 1-B, Ar=C4 H2 O: 1-F), which were characterized by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy, high-resolution ESI mass spectrometry, and, in the case of X-ray crystallography.

Two constitutionally isomeric tetraruthenium macrocycles were constructed from either symmetrically (2-S) or unsymmetrically (2-A) functionalized thiophene-based building blocks. Both compounds fully characterized by NMR spectroscopy and high-resolution ESI MS. Despite their identical composition close structural resemblance, the two isomers exhibit vastly different electrochemical spectroscopic properties as a consequence of extensions π-conjugated subunits. In particular, mixed-valent...
