Cm. Barnes et Bj. Kennedy, AN X-RAY PHOTOELECTRON SPECTROSCOPIC STUDY OF ARENE CHROMIUM TRICARBONYL COMPLEXES AT 170 K, Journal of molecular structure, 344(3), 1995, pp. 233-240
Core and valence region XPS spectra of methyl-substituted benzene chro
mium tricarbonyl complexes have been measured at low (170 K) temperatu
re. The core levels were found to be unchanged by the addition of the
electron-donating groups on the ring, whilst the shifts in the valence
bands have been related to the bonding mechanisms within these compou
nds.
