Abstract
The equilibrium geometries, thermochemistry, and bonding of diiridium polynitrogen compounds Ir2(N5)4 were predicted using density functional theory. For Ir2(N5)4 the preferred structure was a novel paddle wheel structure. Natural bonding orbital (NBO) analysis indicated that the bonding between the metal atom and the five-membered ring was predominantly ionic for Ir2(N5)4 species. In addition, Nucleus independent chemical shift (NICS) values confirmed that the planar N5− exhibited aromaticity in Ir2(N5)4. The dissociation energies into mononuclear fragments for Ir2(N5)4 were predicted to be 155.1 (149.7) kcal/mol, but Ir2(N5)4 is thermodynamically unstable with respect to dissociation into Ir2(N5)3 + N5. Our most remarkable structural finding is the extremely short Iridium–Iridium distance (2.394 A, MPW1PW91) predicted for the paddle wheel structure of Ir2(N5)4. The new class of potential compounds was predicted stable enough for practical applications as high-energy density materials (HEDMs).
