Counter-Intuitive Gas-Phase Reactivities of [V2 ]+ and [V2 O]+ towards CO2 Reduction: Insight from Electronic Structure Calculations.


ABSTRACT: [V2 O]+ remains "invisible" in the thermal gas-phase reaction of bare [V2 ]+ with CO2 giving rise to [V2 O2 ]+ ; this is because the [V2 O]+ intermediate is being consumed more than 230 times faster than it is generated. However, the fleeting existence of [V2 O]+ and its involvement in the [V2 ]+ → [V2 O2 ]+ chemistry are demonstrated by a cross-over labeling experiment with a 1:1 mixture of C16 O2 /C18 O2 , generating the product ions [V2 16 O2 ]+ , [V2 16 O18 O]+ , and [V2 18 O2 ]+ in a 1:2:1 ratio. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations help to understand the remarkable and unexpected reactivity differences of [V2 ]+ versus [V2 O]+ towards CO2 .
