International Collaboration in Chemistry: Carbenes as Stabilizing and Activating Agents in Boron, Carbon and Phosphorus Chemistry

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

In this cooperative project, new compounds with unusual bonding situations will be synthesized and they will be calculated with quantum chemical methods. The focus is on molecules where small species such as mono- or diatomic carbon, P4, or low-coordinated boron-nitrogen compounds are stabilized by carbenes. The computational part is important to understand the electronic structure of the molecules and as a guideline for the experimental work. The goal of the combined theoretical/experimental research is the isolation of novel molecules with unusual bonds which are promising compounds for material sciences and hydrogen storage.
