 | Miller, Joel Steven | [MeNC5H5]2[TCNE]2 (TCNE = tetracyanoethylene). Single crystal X-ray and neutron diffraction characterization of an exceptionally long 2.8 Å C-C bond | The reaction of N-methylpyridinium iodide, Mepy+I-, and tetracyanoethylene (TCNE) forms [Mepy]2[TCNE]2, which possesses [TCNE]2 2' with an intradimer C-C bond distance of 2.806(1)Å at 50 K from X-ray diffraction, and 2.801(4)Å at 50 K from neutron diffraction. In the IR it exhibits nChN absorption... | C-C bond; Tetracyanoethylene; Neutron diffraction; X-ray diffraction; Multicenter C-C bonding | 2009 |

 | Armentrout, Peter B. | Methane activation by cobalt cluster cations, Con+ (n=2-16): reaction mechanisms and thermochemistry of cluster-CHx (x=0-3) complexes | The kinetic energy dependences of the reactions of Con + (n=2-16) with CD4 are studied in a guided ion beam tandem mass spectrometer over the energy range of 0-10 eV. The main products are hydride formation, ConD+, dehydrogenation to form ConCD2 +, and double dehydrogenation yielding ConC+. | Cobalt ions; Transition metal ions; Bond energies; Endothermic reactions; Dehydrogenation; Deuterated methane | 2009 |

 | Miller, Joel Steven; Epstein, Arthur J. | Direct evidence of electron spin polarization from an organic-based magnet: [FeII(TCNE)(NCMe)2][FeIII Cl4] | Direct evidence of an organic-based magnet with a finite electron spin polarization at the Fermi edge is shown from spin-resolved photoemission of the [FeII(TCNE)(NCMe)2][FeIIICl4] organic-based magnet. The 23% majority-based spin polarization at the Fermi edge is observed at 80 K in zero applied fi... | Organic-based magnets; Electron spin polarization | 2009-05 |
