Homoleptic Noble Gas Complexes of Rhombic Be 2 X 2 Clusters: Stability and Nature of the Ng⋯Be Interaction

ABSTRACT Rhombic Be 2 X 2 clusters (X = O, S, Se, and Te) provide electron‐deficient Be centers capable of coordinating noble gas (Ng) atoms. Here, the structures, energetic stability, and bonding of Be 2 X 2 and their homoleptic Ng 2 Be 2 X 2 complexes (Ng = He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe,...

Resonance-Structure Collapse Enables Aromaticity-Controlled Design of Small Singlet-Fission Chromophore Candidates

Abstract Precise control of singlet and triplet excited-state energies is essential for identifying singlet-fission chromophore candidates, particularly in compact heteroarenes with competing resonance structures. Here, we show that heteroatom-controlled resonance-structure selec...
