Laser-ablated Ti, Zr, and Hf atoms react with NF3, PF 3, or AsF3 to produce triplet state terminal pnictinidene N÷MF3, P÷MF3, or As÷MF3 molecules, which are trapped in an argon matrix. Prod
TiF2: Linear or bent?

Calling nonlinearity into question: When Ti atoms are isolated in fluorine-doped argon matrices, TiF4, TiF3, TiF 2, and TiF are identified by their IR spectra. The Ti isotope pattern observed for the ν3 mode of TiF2 is indistinguishable from that of a linear geometry. Therefore, there is now no reliable evidence for the nonlinearity of any 3d transition-metal difluorides or dichlorides. (Chemical Equation Presented)
The pure rotational spectrum of TiF (X4Φr): 3 d transition metal fluorides revisited

The first measurement of the pure rotational spectrum of the TiF radical using millimeter/sub-mm direct absorption methods is presented. The given data is modeled using a Hund's case (a) effective Hamiltonian, leading to the determination of rotational, fine structure, and hyperfine parameters. This paper presents the results, interpret the constants and discuss their implications for bonding in 3d transition metal fluorides.
