The Ozonide Anion: A Theoretical Study

Complete active space self-consistent field (CASSCF) and CASSCF second order perturbation theory (CASPT2) methods have been used for the geometry optimization and calculation of harmonic and fundamental frequencies of the ozonide ion O3(-) and the ozonide lithium complex Li(+)O3(-). For O3(-) harmonic frequencies have also been obtained using the coupled-cluster method, CCSD(T). Infrared intensities are computed from dipole moment derivatives at the CASSCF level. The predicted equilibrium geometry for O3(-) is: Roo = 1.361 Angstroms and angle ooo = 115.4 degrees, and the fundamental frequencies are: nu(sub 1) = 989 per centimeter, nu(sub 2) 556 per centimeter, nu(sub 3) = 870 per centimeter (experimental values are: Roo =1.36 plus or minus 0.02 Angstroms, angle (ooo) = 111.8 plus or minus 2.0 degrees, nu(sub 1) = 975(50) per centimeter, nu(sub 2) = 550(50) per centimeter, nu(sub 3) = 880(50) per centimeter). Corresponding data for the lithium ozonide complex have also been obtained. The presented data contradict the previous interpretation of the IR and Raman spectrum obtained after deposition of ozone in N2, argon, or neon matrices with atomic beams of alkali metals. The presence of the lithium cation raises the asymmetric stretch frequency to about 940 per centimeter, which is contradictory to assumptions made in the assignments of the matrix spectra. Calculations made in a dielectric medium strongly suggest that the effect of the matrix on the IR spectrum is small for O3(-) itself. The dissociation and atomization energies of O3(-) are found to be in agreement with experiment.

Chemistry of peroxide compounds

The history of Soviet research from 1866 to 1967 on peroxide compounds is reviewed. This research dealt mainly with peroxide kinetics, reactivity and characteristics, peroxide production processes, and more recently with superoxides and ozonides and emphasis on the higher oxides of group 1 and 2 elements. Solid state fluidized bed synthesis and production of high purity products based on the relative solubilities of the initial, intermediate, and final compounds and elements in liquid ammonia are discussed.

Positive Anharmonicities: The Oxonide Anion as an Example

An accurate ab initio quartic force field for the ozonide anion has been determined at the singles and doubles coupled-cluster level of theory that includes a perturbational estimate of the effects of connected triple excitations, denoted CCSD(T), using the augmented valence triple-zeta correlation consistent one-particle basis set. Convergence of the harmonic frequencies with respect to the one-particle basis set has been demonstrated by computing quadratic force fields at the CCSD(T) level using augmented valence double-zeta and quadruple-zeta basis sets. Fundamental vibrational frequencies have been determined via second-order ro-vibrational perturbation theory and also using exact variational methods. Agreement is very good, and they both show that the antisymmetric O-O stretch, v 3, possesses a positive anharmonic correction (that is, the fundamental frequency is predicted to be higher in energy than the harmonic frequency). Comparison of the O_3 and O3 quartic force fields shows that the positive anharmonic correction is the result of a particularly large F3333 symmetry internal coordinate force constant. The reasonableness of this force constant has been tested by computing both F33 and F3333 at the CCSD, CCSD(T), and CASPT2 levels of theory. A discussion of known positive anharmonicities for stretching modes is presented.
