The dissociative photodetachment dynamics of the oxalate anion, C2O4H− + hν → CO2 + HOCO + e−, were theoretically studied using the on-the-fly path-integral and ring-polymer molecular dynamics methods, which can account for nuclear quantum effects at the density-functional theory level in order to compare with the recent experimental study using photoelectron–photofragment coincidence spectroscopy. To reduce computational time, the force acting on each bead of ring-polymer was approximately calculated from the first and second derivatives of the potential energy at the centroid position of the nuclei beads. We find that the calculated photoelectron spectrum qualitatively reproduces the experimental spectrum and that nuclear quantum effects are playing a role in determining spectral widths. The calculated coincidence spectrum is found to reasonably reproduce the experimental spectrum, indicating that a relatively large energy is partitioned into the relative kinetic energy between the CO2 and HOCO fragments. This is because photodetachment of the parent anion leads to Franck–Condon transition to the repulsive region of the neutral potential energy surface. We also find that the dissociation dynamics are slightly different between the two isomers of the C2O4H− anion with closed- and open-form structures.

We present the unprecedented <i>η</i>3-coordination of the 2-phosphaethynthiolate anion in the complex (PN)<sub>2</sub>La(SCP) (<b>2</b>) [PN = N-(2-(diisopropylphosphanyl)-4-methylphenyl)-2,4,6-trimethylanilide)]. Structural comparison with dinuclear thiocyanate bridged (PN)<sub>2</sub>La(<i>μ</i>-1,3-SCN)<sub>2</sub>La(PN)<sub>2</sub> (<b>3</b>) and azide bridged (PN)<sub>2</sub>La(<i>μ</i>-1,3-N3)<sub>2</sub>La(PN)<sub>2</sub> (<b>4</b>) complexes indicates that the [SCP]<sup>–</sup> coordination mode is mainly governed by electronic, rather than steric factors. Quantum mechanical investigations reveal large contributions of the antibonding π-orbital of the [SCP]<sup>–</sup> ligand to the LUMO of complex <b>2</b>, rendering it the ideal precursor for the first functionalization of the [SCP]<sup>–</sup> anion. Complex <b>2</b> was therefore reacted with CAACs which induced a selective rearrangement of the [SCP]<sup>–</sup> ligand to form the first CAAC stabilized group 15 – group 16 fulminate-type complexes (PN)<sub>2</sub>La{SPC(<sup>R</sup>CAAC)} (<b>5a,b</b>) (R = Ad, Me). A detailed reaction mechanism for the SCP to SPC isomerization is proposed based on DFT calculations.
