No class of compounds exemplifies better than the hydrides the individualism of the Group
13 elements. In the diversity and profusion of its hydride boron gives little hint of the …

Instinct may suggest that atoms are reagents second to none, for, the noble gases apart, the
atoms of an element must be thermodynamically superior as synthons to the element in bulk …

Presolvated electron possibility in three oxidation states of aluminum–Al (0), Al (I), and Al (II)–
has been theoretically investigated for the Al+ 6NH3, Al (CH3)+ 5NH3, and Al (CH3) 2+ …

Isolation of aluminum, gallium, and indium atoms together with ammonia in a solid argon
matrix is shown to result in a thermal reaction yielding the metal atom complex Al⊙ NH3 …

A database for thermodynamic properties of group-III nitrides and relevant species involved
into growth of these materials is developed in this paper. Standard formation enthalpies of …

Two aspects of Group 13 metal chemistry are surveyed in the light of recent research,
particularly that reported in the period 1992–1998. The first concerns compounds containing …

Pulsed laser-ablated Al atoms react with NH3 to give two major products, HAlNH2 and
AlNH2, which are trapped in solid argon and identified from infrared spectra through isotopic …

InNH3 has been studied with single-photon zero electron kinetic energy (ZEKE)
spectroscopy and density functional theory and ab initio calculations. The ZEKE spectrum …

Reactions of the early transition metal atoms Sc, Ti, and V with NH3 molecules in solid argon
matrix have been studied by infrared spectroscopy and density functional calculations. It is …

The reactions of Si atoms with NH3 molecules have been studied using matrix-isolation
FTIR spectroscopy and density functional theoretical calculations. Silicon atoms reacted with …
