✦ Synopsis


Ab initio density functional calculations for Na Pb, Li Pb, Na Pb , and n n n 4 Li Pb are reported. The abundance of Na Pb observed in gas-phase experiments is n 4 6 explained as a consequence of evaporative cooling, which stops at Na Pb because of the 6 high evaporation energy of this cluster. Insight is also provided into the clustering in the liquid Li᎐Pb and Na᎐Pb alloys. Anomalies in several electronic, structural, and Ž thermodynamic properties were detected at certain compositions 20% Pb in Li᎐Pb; 20% . Pb and 50% Pb in Na᎐Pb and our calculations support the interpretation of those anomalies in terms of the formation of octet and Zintl clusters.

Novel cation-bound bi-radicals are generated in a chemical ionization source from either the stable free radical, 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxy (TEMPO), or the phenoxyl radical and cations including carbonyl isocyanate, ( [ OCNCO' ] ), and, in one case, the proton. The dimeric cluster ions, m
