Zero‐Valent Nickel Stabilized in Surface‐Supported Metal–Organic Chains

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
9,10‐Dicyanoanthracene coordinates Ni atoms on Ag(100) to form metal–organic chains that stabilize zero‐valent Ni(0) (d10) centers with quasi‐one‐dimensional metal–ligand electronic coupling. ABSTRACT The stabilization of zero‐valent nickel Ni(0) centers in extended coordination networks remains a major challenge due to their pronounced reactivity and ...

CO‐Adsorption on MgO Revisited: Polarization‐Resolved Identification of Step Edges as the Dominant Defects on MgO(100) and MgO(110)

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
By combining polarization‐resolved IRRAS with hybrid HSE06 DFT calculations, we establish site‐specific vibrational fingerprints, adsorption geometries, and binding energies for CO on wide‐band‐gap MgO surfaces. Low‐coordinated Mg4c2+ step‐edge sites, rather than terrace Schottky defects, are identified as the dominant binding and reactive sites, with ...
