Interests in transition metal borides (TMB): 1. Catalysts for : 2. - hydrogenation of alkenes and alkynes 3. - reduction of functional groups 4. - deoxygenation reaction 5. 2. Remarkable physical properties: - high conductivity (Ti. B 2) - superconductivity (Mg. B 2) - super hardness (Re. B 2)
Interests in transition metal monoborides (MB): 1. Spectroscopic interest molecular & electronic structure synthesizing metal boride in gas-phase 2. Theoretical calculations limited theoretical work has been performed on MB
Introduction Theoretical calculations: • Tzeli and Mavridis (JCP 128 034309 (2008)) Using MRCI/4 Z level of theory calculated the ground state symmetry and spectroscopic properties of the 3 d transition metal monoborides ranging from Sc to Cu: Co. B X 3 state re = 1. 696 Å e =757 cm-1 No experimental observation on Co. B so far
Experimental conditions Laser ablation/reaction free jet expansion Molecule production: Co + B 2 H 6 (0. 5% in Ar) → Co. B + etc. Ablation Laser : Nd: YAG, 10 Hz, 532 nm, 5 m. J Free Jet Expansion : i) backing pressure: 6 atm B 2 H 6 (0. 5% in Ar) ii) background pressure: 1 x 10 -5 Torr LIF spectrum in the visible region Laser system: Pulsed dye lasers

This Work The analysis of the ’ = 3 – ” = 3 and ’ = 2 – ” = 2 in the spectral region between 490 and 560 nm Over 36 bands have been recorded analyzed - the electronic states are in case (c) coupling scheme (the pattern is similar to Co. O) - large linewidth => less accurate B values - isotopic bands are far away (not easy to associate)

Summary *First experimental observation of the Co. B molecule *Preliminary analysis of the rotational lines showed that these vibronic bands are with ' = 2 - " = 2 and ' = 3 - " = 3 transitions • The ground state of Co. B is X 3 3 *In addition, another 25 vibrational band were observed, . however, more work is needed to find relationship among them. 22
