Abstract
The matrix isolation infrared spectroscopic and quantum chemical calculation results indicate that tungsten oxo and mono-superoxide, WO3 and (η2-O2)WO2, coordinate noble gas atoms in forming noble gas-tungsten oxide complexes. The results showed that both WO3 and (η2-O2)WO2 oxides can coordinate one Ar or Xe atom in solid noble gas matrixes; otherwise, tungsten mono- and dioxides cannot. Hence, the WO3 and (η2-O2)WO2 molecules trapped previously in solid argon noble gas matrixes should be regarded as the WO3(Ar) oxide and (η2-O2)WO2(Ar) peroxide complexes. When annealing, the lighter Ar atom can be replaced by a heavier xenon atom to form WO3(Xe) and (η2-O2)WO2(Xe) complexes. What's more, upon UV photolysis, both Ar and Xe atoms can be replaced by oxygen to form a tungsten disuperoxide (η2-O2)2WO2 complex. The binding energies were predicted to be 25.7, 16.6, 9.4, 14.7, and 8.1 kcal/mol for the (η2-O2)2WO2, WO3(Xe), WO3(Ar), (η2-O2)WO2(Xe), and (η2-O2)WO2(Ar) complexes at the CCSD(T)//M06-2X-D3//def2-TZVP/DGDZVP/SDD level. The substitution law, O2 > Xe > Ar, can be interpreted according to the chemical reaction energies calculated to be -6.6 and +11.0 kcal/mol, respectively, for the equation formulas Xe + (η2-O2)WO2(Ar) = (η2-O2)WO2(Xe) + Ar and O2 + (η2-O2)WO2(Xe) = (η2-O2)2WO2 + Xe at the same level.

Abstract
The chemistry of lanthanides (Ln=La-Lu) is dominated by the low-valent +3 or +2 oxidation state because of the chemical inertness of the valence 4f electrons. The highest known oxidation state of the whole lanthanide series is +4 for Ce, Pr, Nd, Tb, and Dy. We report the formation of the lanthanide oxide species PrO4 and PrO2 (+) complexes in the gas phase and in a solid noble-gas matrix. Combined infrared spectroscopic and advanced quantum chemistry studies show that these species have the unprecedented Pr(V) oxidation state, thus demonstrating that the pentavalent state is viable for lanthanide elements in a suitable coordination environment.

Abstract
The photoelectron images of O3 (-) and O3 (-) ⋅ (O2)n (n = 1-4) have been measured using 3.49 eV photon energy. The spectra exhibit several processes, including direct photodetachment and photodissociation with photodetachment of O(-) photofragments. Several spectra also exhibit autodetachment of vibrationally excited O2 (-) photofragments. Comparison of the bare O3 (-) photoelectron spectra to that of the complexes shows that the O3 (-) core is preserved upon clustering with several O2 molecules, though subtle changes in the Franck-Condon profile of the ground state photodetachment transition suggest some charge transfer from O3 (-) to the O2 molecules. The electron affinities of the complexes increase by less than 0.1 eV with each additional O2 molecule, which is comparable to the corresponding binding energy [K. Hiraoka, Chem. Phys. 125, 439-444 (1988)]. The relative intensity of the photofragment O(-) detachment signal to the O3 (-) ⋅ (O2)n direct detachment signal increases with cluster size. O2 (-) autodetachment signal is only observed in the O3 (-), O3 (-) ⋅ (O2)3, and O3 (-) ⋅ (O2)4 spectra, suggesting that the energy of the dissociative state also varies with the number of O2 molecules present in the cluster.

Abstract
The reactions of bismuth atoms and O2 have been investigated using matrix isolation infrared spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations. The ground state bismuth atoms react with dioxygen to form the BiOO and Bi(O2)2 complexes spontaneously on annealing. The BiOO molecule is characterized to be an end-on bonded superoxide complex, while the Bi(O2)2 molecule is characterized to be a superoxo bismuth peroxide complex, [Bi(3+)(O2(-))(O2(2-))]. Under UV-visible light irradiation, the Bi(O2)2 complex rearranges to the more stable OBiOOO isomer, an end-on bonded bismuth monoxide-ozonide complex. The end-on-bonded OBiOOO complex further rearranges to a more stable side-on bonded OBiO3 isomer upon sample annealing. In addition, the bent bismuth dioxide anion is also formed and assigned.

Abstract
The reactions of magnesium atoms with dioxygen and dioxygen/carbon monoxide mixture have been investigated by matrix isolation infrared absorption spectroscopy. Magnesium atoms react with dioxygen in solid argon to form the inserted MgO(2) molecules under UV excitation, which were previously characterized. Annealing allows the dioxygen molecules to diffuse and to react with MgO(2) and form the magnesium bisozonide complex, Mg(O(3))(2), which is proposed to be coordinated by two argon atoms in solid argon matrix. The Mg(O(3))(2)(Ar)(2) complex is characterized to have two equivalent side-on bonded ozonide ligands with a D(2h) symmetry. The coordinated argon atoms can be replaced by carbon monoxide to give the magnesium bisozonide dicarbonyl complex, Mg(O(3))(2)(CO)(2), a neutral magnesium carbonyl complex with CO binding to the Mg(2+) center.

Abstract
Oxygen adsorption on reduced TiO2(110) is investigated using temperature programmed desorption and electron-stimulated desorption. At low temperatures, 2 O(2) molecules can be chemisorbed in each oxygen vacancy. These molecules do not desorb upon annealing to 700 K. Instead, for 200 K<T<400 K, the 2 O(2) convert to another species, which has four oxygen atoms, i.e., tetraoxygen, that decomposes at higher temperatures. In contrast, when only 1 O(2) is adsorbed in an oxygen vacancy, the molecule dissociates upon annealing above ~150 K to heal the vacancy in agreement with previous results.

Abstract
Dichromium oxide clusters, Cr2O2, Cr2O4, and Cr2O6, have been prepared and characterized by matrix isolation infrared spectroscopy and quantum chemical calculations. Laser-evaporated chromium atoms reacted with O2 in solid argon to form the previously characterized CrO2 molecules, which further reacted with chromium atoms to form Cr2O2 spontaneously on annealing. The Cr2O2 cluster is determined to have a chainlike CrOCrO structure. The rhombic ring isomer, which was predicted to be more stable than the CrOCrO structure, was not formed at the present experimental conditions. The Cr2O4 cluster was formed from the barrierless dimerization of the chromium dioxide molecules, which is characterized to have a planar D2h symmetry. TheCr2O6 cluster was produced under UV light irradiation. It is determined to have a singlet ground state with a nonplanar D2h symmetry.

Abstract
The infrared spectra of the O(2) (-).benzene and O(4) (-).benzene complexes are determined by means of Ar predissociation spectroscopy. Several transitions due to CH stretch fundamentals and various combination bands are observed in the 2700-3100 cm(-1) region. The experimental results are interpreted with the aid of electronic structure calculations. A comparison of the calculated and experimental spectra reveals that the spectrum of O(2) (-).benzene most likely arises from an isomer where the superoxide molecule binds preferentially to one CH group of benzene. In contrast, the spectrum of O(4) (-).benzene yields a CH pattern remarkably similar to that displayed by the C(2nu) X(-).benzene (X=halogen) complexes, consistent with a structure with two CH groups equally involved in the bonding. The lower energy vibrational fundamental transitions of the O(4) (-) anion are recovered with a slight redshift in the O(4) (-).benzene spectrum, establishing that this charge-delocalized dimer ion retains its identity upon complexation.

Abstract
Hafnium atom oxidation by dioxygen molecules has been investigated using matrix isolation infrared absorption spectroscopy. The ground-state hafnium atom inserts into dioxygen to form primarily the previously characterized HfO(2) molecule in solid argon. Annealing allows the dioxygen molecules to diffuse and react with HfO(2) to form OHf(eta(2)-O(2))(eta(2)-O(3)), which is characterized as a side-on bonded oxo-superoxo hafnium ozonide complex. Under visible light (532 nm) irradiation, the OHf(eta(2)-O(2))(eta(2)-O(3)) complex either photochemically rearranges to a more stable Hf(eta(2)-O(2))(3) isomer, a side-on bonded di-superoxo hafnium peroxide complex, or reacts with dioxygen to form an unprecedented homoleptic tetra-superoxo hafnium complex: Hf(eta(2)-O(2))(4). The Hf(eta(2)-O(2))(4) complex is determined to possess a D(2d) geometry with a tetrahedral arrangement of four side-on bonded O(2) ligands around the hafnium atom, which thus presents an 8-fold coordination. These oxygen-rich complexes are photoreversible; that is, formation of Hf(eta(2)-O(2))(3) and Hf(eta(2)-O(2))(4) is accompanied by demise of OHf(eta(2)-O(2))(eta(2)-O(3)) under visible (532 nm) light irradiation and vice versa with UV (266 nm) light irradiation.

Abstract
This report presents the preparation and characterization of two interconvertible titanium ozonide complexes using matrix-isolation infrared spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations (B3LYP/6-311+G(d)). The titanium atoms react with O2 to form primarily the inserted TiO2 molecules in solid argon, which further react with O2 to form OTi(eta2-O2)(eta2-O3) via a weakly bonded TiO2(O2)2 intermediate. The OTi(eta2-O2)(eta2-O3) complex is characterized as [(TiO)2+(O2-)(O3-)], that is, a side-on-bonded oxo-superoxo titanium ozonide complex. The side-on-bonded complex rearranges to a less stable end-on-bonded OTi(eta2-O2)(eta1-O3) isomer under 532 nm laser irradiation, while the reverse reaction (end-on to side-on) proceeds upon sample annealing.

Abstract
First principles periodic slab calculations based on gradient-corrected density functional theory have been performed to investigate CO oxidation on rutile TiO2(110) at varying O2 coverages (theta = 1, 2, and 3, where theta is defined as the number of O2 per oxygen vacancy). For each coverage we only present the reaction of CO with oxygen species in the most stable configuration. Our results show a significant variation in the oxidation activation energy with O2 coverage.

Abstract
Reactions of rhodium atoms with dioxygen molecules in solid argon have been investigated using matrix isolation infrared absorption spectroscopy. The rhodium-dioxygen complexes, Rh(eta2-O2), Rh(eta2-O2)2, and Rh(eta2-O2)2(eta1-OO), are produced spontaneously on annealing. The Rh(eta2-O2) complex rearranges to the inserted RhO2 molecule under visible light irradiation. Experiments doped with xenon in argon show that the rhodium-dioxygen complexes are coordinated by one or two noble gas atoms in solid noble gas matrixes. Hence, the Rh(eta2-O2), Rh(eta2-O2)2, and Rh(eta2-O2)2(eta1-OO) molecules trapped in solid noble gas matrixes should be regarded as the Rh(eta2-O2)(Ng)2, Rh(eta2-O2)2(Ng)2, and Rh(eta2-O2)2(eta1-OO)(Ng) (Ng = Ar or Xe) complexes. The product absorptions are identified on the basis of isotopic substitution and density functional theory calculations.

Abstract
In this paper, we propose a new adsorption model for molecular oxygen on reduced TiO2(110), based on extensive first principles density functional calculations. For the first time, our calculations predict formation of tetraoxygen (O4) anchored at the vacancy site, which in turn allows adsorption of three O2 molecules per vacancy in saturation coverage. We present the structure, bonding, and energetics of adsorbed oxygen species by changing the number of adsorbed oxygen molecules per vacancy. We also find that thermally activated O2 desorption may take place via two channels that require overcoming barriers of 0.41 and 1.25 eV, respectively. In addition, our study provides strong theoretical evidence for the change in O2 reactivity with O2 coverage. Our findings associated with tetraoxygen complexes are consistent with existing experimental results.

Abstract
This report presents the preparation and characterization of a xenon-containing cationic radical species, XeOO+. The XeOO+ cation was produced either by co-deposition of the reactive species generated by laser ablation of different transition metals with dioxygen and xenon mixtures in excess argon or by condensation of high-frequency discharged O2/Xe/Ar mixtures at 12 K and is identified by infrared absorptions. High-level quantum chemical calculations indicate that XeOO+ has a bent structure with direct xenon-oxygen dative bonding, and the doublet ground state is much more stable than the Xe + O2+ reactants.

Abstract
The structure of the O(4)(2+) dication has been studied theoretically using a few conventional theoretical methods. We found the O(4)(2+) dication to be a metastable species with a perfect square structure. The molecular orbital analysis reveals that this dication is the first all-oxygen aromatic system with 6pi electrons. Although the O(4)(2+) dication is highly thermodynamically unstable, we believe that appropriate counteranions with very high electron detachment energy (superhalogens) can be found to form a solid-state compound containing O(4)(2+). Another way to probe the planar aromatic tetra oxygen dication could be a double-photoionization process of the (O(2))(2) dimer.

Abstract
The pyramidal O(4)(2)(-) dianion is valence isoelectronic to the well-known ClO(3)(-) and SO(3)(2)(-) anions, and yet it has not been observed. The synthesis of any molecule containing such a dianion would represent a major breakthrough in making molecules containing more than three covalently bound oxygen atoms. We found that the parent H(2)O(4) ozonic acid is unstable in the form of the valence isoelectronic sulfurous acid H(2)SO(3). Our quantum chemical probing of the Li(2)O(4) ionic salt molecule is inconclusive. However, we found that the specially designed FLi(3)O(4) gas phase molecule is a true metastable species and could be considered as the first molecule containing the O(4)(2)(-) dianion. Our theoretical prediction of the first compound containing the tetraatomic covalently bound O(4)(2)(-) dianion opens the possibility to even more oxygen rich compounds, which will have a great potential as high density oxygen storage.

Abstract
The four-body dissociative photodetachment (DPD) dynamics of O-8 were studied using photoelectron photofragment coincidence (PPC) spectroscopy. All four neutral photofragments were measured in coincidence with the photodetached electron, yielding a five-body kinematically complete experiment. Velocity and angular correlations for DPD of O(-)(8) are presented and compared to those for O(-)(6). The DPD dynamics and energetics of O(-)(8).are found to be similar to those of O-4 and O-6 implying that the additional solvating O(2) molecules act essentially as spectators, but exhibit inequivalent kinematic behavior implying asymmetric solvation.

O4(2-) is valent isoelectronic to the well-known ClO3- and SO3(2-) anions, and O5(2-) is valent isoelectronic to ClO4- and SO4(2-). All are stable, common anions in solutions and inorganic salts. In this article, we explore the possibility of making covalently bound O4(2-) and O5(2-) species stabilized in the forms of M+O4(2-) and M+O5(2-) (M = Li, Na, K, Cs) in the gas phase. Laser vaporization experiments using M-containing targets and an O2-seeded carrier gas yielded very intense mass peaks corresponding to MO4- and MO5-. To elucidate the structure and bonding of the newly observed MO4- and MO5- species, we measured their photoelectron spectra and then compared them with ab initio calculations and the spectra of ClO3-, Na+SO3(2-), ClO4-, and Na+SO4(2-). Careful analyses of the experimental and ab initio results showed, however, that the observed species are of the forms, O2-M+O2- and O2-M+O3-. The more interesting M+O4(2-) and M+O5(2-) species were found to be higher-energy isomers, but they are true minima on the potential energy surfaces, which suggests that it might be possible to synthesize bulk materials containing covalently bound tetra- and pentatomic oxygen building blocks.

Abstract
The peroxynitrite anion, of vast importance in biochemistry, is formed in vivo from the reaction of NO and O(-2). Laser ablation of 10 different metal targets with concurrent 7 K codeposition of NO/Ar and O(2)/Ar mixtures gives new metal-independent infrared bands at 1458.3 and 806.1 cm(-)(1), and at 1433.3 and 983.2 cm(-1), in addition to known O(-4) and (NO)(-2) absorptions. The new bands are not observed with CCl(4) added to capture electrons or in O(2) and NO experiments without laser ablation to produce electrons, which identifies new product anions. Based on (15)NO and (18)O(2) isotopic shifts, splitting patterns in mixed isotopic experiments, and comparison with DFT isotopic frequency calculations, the former absorptions are assigned to cis-OONO-, and the latter pair to trans-OONO-, which are isolated from metal cations trapped elsewhere in the matrix. The cis- and trans-peroxynitrite anion isomers are probably formed via the ion-molecule reaction between O(-2)and NO: the O(-2) anion, made by the capture of ablated electrons, is attested by the observation of O(-4). cis- and trans-OONO- are reversibly photoisomerized by visible and near-UV radiation. Collisional stabilization of the OONO- ion-molecule dimer complex during formation of the solid argon matrix appears to be crucial.
