Structure-Property Relationships in Polynuclear mu-O Bridged Aqua Clusters: Effect of M-muO bond covalency

David Trevor Richens

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

The extent of M-mu O bond covalency is the dominant factor controlling the M-mu O distance, the terminal water pK(a) and exchange mechanism within a range of polynuclear oxo-bridged aqueous clusters. These effects lead to limiting associative/dissociative mechanisms for water exchange on the polynuclear species.
