Matrix infrared spectra and electronic structure calculations of the first actinideborylene: FB[double bond, length as m-dash]ThF2

Abstract

Laser-ablated Th atoms react with BF3 during condensation in excess argon at 6 K to form the first actinide borylene (FB[double bond, length as m-dash]ThF2) and actinideboron multiple bond. Three new product absorptions in the B–F and Th–F stretching regions of matrix infrared spectra are assigned to FB[double bond, length as m-dash]ThF2 from comparison to theoretically predicted vibrational frequencies.
