Isolated So(4)-2 and PO(4)-3 Anions Do Not Exist
Abstract
Ab initio theoretical methods that incorporate effects of orbital relaxation and electron correlation are used to examine the possibility that doubly or triply charged oxy-anions of the class S04-2, SeO4-2, TeO4-2, or P04- 3, AsO4-3, SbO4-3 are stable relative to electron detachment in the absence of any surrounding medium. In all of these cases, our findings indicate quite clearly that these multiply charged oxyanions are not stable.
