Popis: | The kinetics of ammonia ligation to atomic first and second row transition metal cations were measured in an attempt to assess the role of ligand field effects in gas-phase ion-molecule reaction kinetics. Measurements were performed at 295 ± 2 K in helium bath gas at 0.35 Torr using an inductively coupled plasma/selected-ion flow tube tandem mass spectrometer. The atomic cations were produced at ca. 5500 K in an inductively coupled plasma source and were allowed to decay radiatively and to thermalize by collisions with argon and helium atoms prior to reaction. A strong correlation was observed across the periodic table between the measured rate coefficients for ammonia ligation and measured/calculated bond dissociation energies. A similar strong correlation is seen with the ligand field stabilization energy. So ligand field stabilization energies should provide a useful predictor of relative rates of ligation of atomic metal ions. |
