Abstract

Time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) coupled to the relativistic two-component zeroth-order regular approximation, both available in the last version of the ADF package, have been successfully used to simulate X-ray absorption spectra of TiCl4, Ti(eta5-C5H5)Cl3, and Ti(eta5-C5H5)2Cl2 in terms of their oscillator strength distributions. Besides allowing a first principle assignment of Ti 1s, Cl 1s, and Ti 2p (L2,3 edges) core excitation spectra, theoretical outcomes provide a rationale for deviations from the expected L3/L2 branching ratio.
