Abstract
An ab initio SCF theoretical study has been carried out on the optimiz ed geometries, atomic populations, electron densities, and infrared/el ectronic spectra of the M2O72- anions (M = Cr, Mo, W) using various ba sis sets of different quality. The results concerning geometrical arra ngements and electron densities are analyzed and rationalized, and the most important bands of infrared and electronic spectra are assigned and compared with experiment. Theoretical results are in fair agreemen t with experimental data, when available, and serve as predictions oth erwise.
