Ir. Beattie et al., INTERATOMIC DISTANCES FOR SOME FIRST ROW TRANSITION ELEMENT DICHLORIDES ISOLATED IN CRYOGENIC MATRICES USING X-RAY-ABSORPTION FINE-STRUCTURE SPECTROSCOPY, The Journal of chemical physics, 100(12), 1994, pp. 8700-8705
X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) data for several 3d transition
metal dichlorides isolated in nitrogen, argon, or methane matrices hav
e been collected and analyzed. The bond lengths obtained are in reason
able agreement with those from vapor phase electron diffraction. The r
esults are briefly discussed with reference to Badger's rule extended
to triatomics.
