Popis: | To help understand the anomalously low basicity of arsabenzene and phosphabenzene we have investigated the cor- relation between the core-ionization energies and proton affinities for arsabenzene, phosphabenzene, arsine, trimethylarsine, phosphine, and the methylphosphines. The results support the view that the low basicity is due to the inability of the aromatic compounds to undergo geometric rearrangement on protonation. Comparison of the Auger kinetic energies with core-ioniza- tion energies gives an estimate of 0.45 eV for the stabilization energy due to the resonance delocalization of the charge on phos- phine following core ionization. Further comparison of these quantities indicates that a methyl group and an aromatic ring are both electron donating compared to hydrogen. |
