Abstract:
X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectra, as well as the ground-state electronic/geometrical structures of the unparalleled non-classical (NC) isomer C-1-C-68(NC3) and the chlorinated derivative C-1-C-68(NC3)Cl-28 with its partially hydrolyzed derivatives C-1-C-68(NC3)Cl-26(OH)(2) and C-1-C-68(NC3)Cl-25(OH)(3), along with the classical non-IPR (isolated pentagon rule) fullerene C-2v-C-#6073(68) and its metal carbide clusterfullerene Sc2C2@C-2-C-#6073(68) have been calculated at the density-functional-theory (DFT) level. The electronic structures and X-ray spectra of classical and non-classical fullerenes are undoubtedly distinguished from their counterparts, as are the substances that have undergone chlorination. The two derivatives produced in the partial hydrolysis of chloride C-1-C-68(NC3)Cl-28 also exhibit distinctive properties. The "fingerprint" in X-ray spectroscopy is capable of offering an effective tool for the identification of the aforementioned isomers, as evidenced by the reality that the XPS and NEXAFS spectra demonstrate isomer dependence. Ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) absorption spectroscopy of Sc2C2@C-2-C-#6073(68) was carried out using time-dependent (TD) DFT calculations. The emulated results and the outcomes of the experiment coincide well. This study indicates how X-ray and UV-vis spectroscopy methods can provide valuable data to support researchers in exploring the electronic structure of fullerene materials and the identification of isomers in both further experimental and theoretical disciplines.
