Introduction A number of hydrogen-containing rare gas mole- cules HRgY (H is hydrogen, Rg is a rare gas atom, and Y is an electronegative fragment) have been syn- thesized and studied in low-temperature matrices within the last several years [1,2]. Preparation of these HRgY molecules consists of photodecomposition of the HY precursor followed by thermal mobilization of atomic hydrogen in a low-temperature rare gas ma- trix. Infrared absorption spectroscopy is a useful method for detecting these molecules due to the large intensity of the H–Rg stretching vibration absorption [2]. In addition to the H–Rg stretching modes, bend- ing vibrations for many of the HRgY molecules have been observed. The heavy-atom stretching vibration modes �(Rg–Y) have been observed only for HArF and HKrF [3–5]. The indirect observation of the Xe–I stretching frequency of HXeI, calculated as a differ- ence between combination and fundamental vibration, has been previously reported [6]. Since there are a va- riety of Rg–Y bonds in these HRgY compounds, it would be very interesting to learn more about the na- ture of the bonding via direct observation of the Rg–Y stretching vibration. In this work, we study experi- mentally and computationally the Kr–Cl stretching modes of the H/D and 35Cl/37Cl isotopologues of HKrCl. The experimental data is compared with our previous experimental measurements for HKrF [5]. 2. Experimental and computational details In the HCl/Kr experiments, HCl (99%, CIL) and Kr (99.995% Aga) gases were mixed in a glass bulb. The gas mixture was deposited onto a CsI window kept at 27 K in a closed-cycle helium cryostat (APD, DE 202A). The typical matrix thickness after the 30-minute deposition was 100–200 µm. Deuteration of HCl was achieved by passing premixed gas over the deuterated sulphuric acid (>99% D2, Merck) in the deposition line. The resulting HCl/DCl ratio was typically �1. The samples were photolysed through a MgF2 window at 7.5 K by an 193 nm ArF-excimer la- ser (MPB, MSX-250) using �104 pulses with a pulse energy density of �10 mJ/cm2. The infrared (IR) spectra were measured with a Nicolet SX 60 FTIR spectrometer. In the mid-IR spectral region, the spec- trometer was operated with a Ge–KBr beam split- ter (BS) and a MCT detector and resolutions of 0.25 and 1 cm–1 were used, while in the far-IR region (< 400 cm–1) a 6 µm mylar BS with a DTGS detector and 1 cm–1 resolution were used. In the computational description of the potential energy surface of HKrCl, electron correlation was © Antti Lignell, Jan Lundell, Mika Pettersson, Leonid Khriachtchev, and Markku Räsänen, 2003 * Permanent address: eChemicum (Chemistry ICT-center), University of Helsinki, P.O. Box 55, FIN-00014, Finland considered via Møller-Plesset perturbation theory to the second order (MP2), and all electrons were ac- counted for in the calculations (MP2 = FULL). The correlation consistent double-zeta quality all-electron basis set, aug-cc-pVDZ, was employed for all atoms. The equilibrium structure and harmonic vibrational frequencies of HKrCl were also studied by the higher-level coupled cluster [CCSD(T)] approach. The anharmonic vibrational frequencies were obtained from the vibrational self-consistent field (VSCF) and its extension by corrections via second-order perturba- tion theory (CC-VSCF) [7–10]. A pairwise coupling approximation was made to the potential in the nor- mal mode representation [8]. Further details of CC-VSCF combined with an ab initio electronic structure code are given in Refs. 9 and 10. All ab ini- tio calculations at the MP2 and CC-VSCF levels were performed in the framework of the GAMESS elec- tronic structure program on dual PIII/500MHz work- stations [11]. The CCSD(T) calculations were per- formed on a SGI Origin 2000 computer at the CSC-Center for Scientific Computing Ltd. (Espoo, Finland) using the «Gaussian 98» package of pro- grams [12]. 3. Experimental results The HCl/Kr samples were highly monomeric with respect to HCl and DCl precursors and the known ab- sorption bands of HCl at 2872.9 and 2870.5 cm–1, and DCl at 2078.6 and 2075.6 cm–1 dominate in the spec- tra [13]. A small amount of HCl and DCl was complexed with N2 due to natural nitrogen impurity in the matrices. Interestingly, the complexation effi- ciency of DCl was observed to be significantly higher than that of HCl. Typically, >90% of HCl was decom- posed upon 193 nm photolysis, and the decomposition of DCl was somewhat slower than that of HCl. HKrCl and DKrCl appeared already during pho- tolysis as reported previously [14]. Annealing of the sample at � 30 K led to an increase of the amount of HKrCl and DKrCl due to mobilization of atomic hy- drogen in a Kr matrix [15]. The observed H–Kr stretching (1476.1 cm–1, see Fig. 1) and H–Kr–Cl bending vibration bands (543.7 and 542.1 cm–1 with the overtone at 1069.3 and 1067.9 cm–1) are in a good agreement with the previous experimental data [1]. The Kr–Cl stretching vibrations of HKrCl were observed at 253.1 and 248.3 cm–1, the splitting (4.8 cm–1) being due to the natural 35Cl and 37Cl iso- topes (see Fig. 1). The intensity ratio between the HKr35Cl and HKr37Cl bands is � 3.2 in accordance with the natural isotope ratio of 3.1. In addition to the previously reported band of the D–Kr stretching mode of DKrCl at 1105.6 cm–1 [1], the D–Kr–Cl bending vibration band was found at 397.7 cm–1, which is the new spectroscopic data obtained here. The Kr–Cl stretching vibrations of DKrCl were practically un- shifted from the corresponding HKrCl bands (see Fig. 1). The experimental assignment of the Kr–Cl stretching bands of HKrCl and DKrCl are based on the following arguments. They increase synchronously with the known HKrCl and DKrCl bands upon an- nealing. Photostability of the bands are similar as 1110 Fizika Nizkikh Temperatur, 2003, v. 29, Nos. 9/10 Antti Lignell, Jan Lundell, Mika Pettersson, Leonid Khriachtchev, and Markku Räsänen 1550 1500 300 250 200 0 0.2 0.4 1150 1100 300 250 200 0.1 0.2 a * 37Cl 35Cl X 2 � (Kr–Cl)� (H–Kr) Wavenumber, cm–1 Wavenumber, cm–1 b * 37 Cl 35Cl X 2 � (Kr–Cl)� (D–Kr) A b so rb a n ce , a rb . u n its A b so rb a n ce , a rb . u n its Fig. 1.

Finally, the computations (see later) agree with the observed experimental findings. 4. Computational results and discussions The optimized H–Kr and Kr–Cl bond distances of the linear HKrCl molecule, calculated at the MP2/aug-cc-pVDZ computational level, are 1.500 and 2.563 Å, respectively. The harmonic vibrational frequencies obtained at this computational level are 1943.1, 604.2, and 275.7 cm–1. The increase of elec- tron correlation to the CCSD(T) level gives longer H–Kr and Kr–Cl distances of 1.545 and 2.580 Å, re- spectively, and the frequency of H–Kr stretching mode shifts down to 1512.8 cm–1, which is close to the experimentally observed H–Kr stretching frequency (1476.1 cm–1). Increasing the electron correlation af- fects less the bending and Kr–Cl stretching modes. At the CCSD(T) level of theory the predicted frequen- cies are at 569.9 and 273.0 cm–1, respectively, which are very similar to the values obtained using the MP2 calculations. The high-level harmonic calculations neglect an- harmonicity of the potential energy surfaces. How- ever, there is experimental and theoretical evidence for important anharmonic effects for HRgY molecules [6,16–18]. The anharmonic MP2 vibrational frequen- cies of the HKrCl isotopologues are shown in Table. The H–Kr stretching (�3) is predicted at 1691.0 cm–1, � 250 cm–1 below the corresponding harmonic value. Clearly, both electron correlation and anharmonicity are important for the adequate description of this mo- lecule. The H–Kr–Cl bending (�2) and Kr–Cl stretch- ing (�1) modes appear to be less anharmonic than the H–Kr stretching. In the anharmonic calculations, the bending vibration mode is reduced to 575.2 cm–1, i.e., � 30 cm–1 below its harmonic value. The �(Kr–Cl) mode is relatively insensitive to the inclusion of anharmonicity and the vibration is predicted to be at 274.3 cm–1, shifted only by +1.4 cm–1 from the har- monic prediction. The computational overtone spectrum of HKrCl is rather rich and several bands are predicted to be prom- ising for experimental detection. The experimentally observed first overtone of the H–Kr–Cl bending mode offers a good benchmark for the anharmonic calcula- tions. The first overtone is predicted to lie at 1149.8 cm–1 whereas the experimentally observed overtone is at 1069.4 cm–1 [1]. Computationally the infrared intensity of the first overtone is 10% from its fundamental intensity whereas the experimental value is � 30%. The first and second overtones of the H–Kr stretching mode and the first overtone of the Kr–Cl stretch are predicted to be intense enough to be exper- imentally searched for, however, they were not ob- served in this work experimentally. The HRgY molecules have (HRg)+Y– ion-pair cha- racter.

This leads to stronger cova- lent bonding of the (HRg)+ entity, while covalent character of the Rg–Y bond is reduced lowering the activation energy of dissociation via bending motion. According to the experimental data, the quadratic force constant (f2) for Kr–Cl stretch of HKrCl is 0.93 N/cm as calculated from equation f c2 2 2 24� � � �, where � is the vibrational wavenumber, c is the light velocity, and µ is the reduced mass. For comparison, f2 for Kr–F stretch of HKrF is 1.57 N/cm [5], and the force constants for asymmetric stretches of KrF2 and XeCl2 are 2.59 N/cm and 1.32 N/cm [19,20], respec- tively. These data indicate a stronger Kr–F chemical bonding than Kr–Cl bonding in accordance with the electron localization studies of Berski and co-workers [21]. Similar trend can be seen for the H–Kr moiety when its covalent character is enhanced from HKrCl to HKrF as judged by the increase of the H–Kr stretching frequency. As a reference, the harmonic wavenumbers for the Kr+Cl– and Kr+F– exciplexes are (208 20) and (284 27) cm–1 deduced from their elec- tronic emission spectrum [22], resulting in force con- stants of f2(Kr+Cl–) = 0.63 N/cm and f2(Kr+F–) = = 0.74 N/cm. Since the exciplexes are ionic in nature, the higher frequency of the Kr–Y stretch in HKrY molecules suggest that the Kr–Y bonding in HKrY molecules is not purely ionic but contains also some covalent contribution between the Kr and Y frag- ments. The covalent contribution between Rg–Y frag- ments is essential for the existence of a bending barrier in HRgY molecules and thus important for the intrin- sic stability of HRgY molecules. 5. Conclusions The Kr–Cl stretching vibration mode for various isotopologues of HKrCl is studied experimentally and compared with the previous measurements on the Kr–F stretching mode of HKrF. Anharmonic vibra- tional calculations are done on the HKrCl molecule and show good argeement with the experiments. Ac- cording to the vibrational analysis, it is suggested that the Kr–Cl and Kr–F bonds of HKrCl and HKrF mole- cules have, in addition to ionic, some covalent contri- butions.
