| 英文摘要 | Both B and Al have high oxygen affinity and their oxidation processes are highly exothermic, hinting at intriguing physical chemistry in ternary Al-B-O clusters. We report a combined photoelectron spectroscopy and density-functional study on the structural, electronic, and bonding properties of AlnBO2- and AlnBO2 (n = 2, 3) clusters. Ground-state vertical detachment energies (VDEs) are measured to be 2.83 and 2.24 eV for Al2BO2 and Al3BO2 , respectively. A weak isomer is also observed for Al3BO2- with a VDE of 1.31 eV. Coalescence-kick global searches allow the identification of candidate structures, confirmed via comparisons with experiment. The Al2BO2- anion is V-shaped in geometry, C-s ((1)A'), with an Al center connecting to OB and OAl terminals. It can be viewed alternatively as the fusion of BOAl and AlOAl by sharing an Al atom. Al3BO2- has a C-s ((2)A") global minimum in which an Al-2 dimer interacts with bridging boronyl (BO) and an OAl unit, as well as a low-lying C-2v (B-2(2)) isomer consisting of boronyl and OAl that are doubly bridged by two Al atoms. The BO2 block (linear O-B-O chain) is nonexistent in any of the anion and neutral species. Chemical bonding in these Al-B-O clusters is elucidated via canonical molecular orbitals and adaptive natural density partitioning. The cluster structures are also rationalized using the concept of sequential and competitive oxidation of B versus Al centers in AlnB. The first O atom prefers to oxidize B and form BO, whereas the second O atom has options to interact with a fresh Al/Al-n/AlnB unit or a BO group. The former route wins thermodynamically, leading to the observed geometries. |
