RT info:eu-repo/semantics/article T1 Metallic Cyanoacetylides of Copper, Silver and Gold: Generation and Structural Characterization A1 Cabezas, Carlos A1 Barrientos Benito, María Carmen A1 Largo Cabrerizo, Antonio A1 Guillemin, Jean-Claude A1 Alonso Hernández, José Luis K1 Química física AB The metallic cyanoacetylides CuCCCN, AgCCCN, and AuCCCN have been synthesized in the throat of a pulsed supersonic expansion by reaction of metal vapors, produced by laser ablation, and BrCCCN. Their pure rotational spectra in the (X1Σ+) electronic ground state were observed by Fourier transform microwave spectroscopy in the 2-10 GHz frequency region. Importantly, the rotational spectroscopy constants determined from the analysis of the rotational spectra clearly established the existence of metal-CCCN arrangements for all the mentioned cyanoacetylides. A study of the chemical bonding by means of a topological analysis of the electron density helps to understand the preference for metal-C bonding over metal-N bonding.
