The preparation of multiple-decker sandwich clusters V n (C6H6) n+ 1 and their large size
dependence of the ionization energies have recently been reported by Kaya and his co …

Vanadium-arene complex anions, V1 (arene) m−(m= 1, 2; arene= benzene, fluorobenzene,
and toluene) were synthesized by the gas phase reaction of laser vaporized metal atoms …

Ti–and V–bz 2 (bz= C 6 H 6) sandwich complexes have been prepared in a laser-ablation
cluster beam source and studied by pulsed field ionization–zero electron kinetic energy …

Recent advances on substituent effects in transition metal bisarene complexes studied with
high-resolution threshold ionization spectroscopy are reviewed to demonstrate new aspects …

Vanadium, niobium, and tantalum metal atoms, produced by laser ablation, are reacted with
benzene vapor diluted in argon and codeposited onto a 7 K CsI window. The resulting …

For over 25 years zero kinetic energy (ZEKE) spectroscopy has yielded a rich foundation of
high-resolution results of molecular ions. This was based on the discovery in the late 60's of …

The electronic absorption spectra of Cp 2 M (M= V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni; Cp= η 5-C 5 H 5),
Cp′ 2 Fe (Cp′= η 5-C 5 H 4 Me) and Cp* 2 Mn (Cp*= η 5-C 5 Me 5) in the vapor phase …

To investigate the elementary events of the decomposition of transition metal complexes, a
density functional study of the systems Cr (C6H6) 2 and Cr (C6H6) as well as their …

Efficient multiphoton ionization of nickelocene, ferrocene and bis (η6-benzene) chromium
was achieved on excitation of jet-cooled sandwich molecules with nanosecond pulses of …

Gas-phase electronic absorption spectra of (η 6-C 6 H 6) 2 Cr 1 and (η 6-C 6 D 6) 2 Cr 2
have been measured with 30 cm-1 resolution. Both spectra show 3d (a 1g)→ Rnp (e 1u)(n …
