Impact of water on the OH + HOCl reaction

The effect of a single water molecule on the OH + HOCl reaction has been investigated. The naked reaction, the reaction without water, has two elementary reaction paths, depending on how the hydroxyl radical approaches the HOCl molecule. In both cases, the reaction begins with the formation of prereactive hydrogen bond complexes before the abstraction of the hydrogen by the hydroxyl radical. When water is added, the products of the reaction do not change, and the reaction becomes quite complex yielding six different reaction paths. Interestingly, a geometrical rearrangement occurs in the prereactive hydrogen bonded region, which prepares the HOCl moiety to react with the hydroxyl radical. The rate constant for the reaction without water is computed to be 2.2 × 10(-13) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1) at room temperature, which is in good agreement with experimental values. The reaction between ClOH···H(2)O and OH is estimated to be slower than the naked reaction by 4-5 orders of magnitude. Although, the reaction between ClOH and the H(2)O···HO complex is also predicted to be slower, it is up to 2.2 times faster than the naked reaction at altitudes below 6 km. Another intriguing finding of this work is an interesting three-body interchange reaction that can occur, that is HOCl + HO···H(2)O → HOCl···H(2)O + OH.     

Quantum chemical simulation of the reaction of methane with gold(I) acetylacetonate and aquaacetylacetonate complexes

The interaction between methane and gold(I) acetylacetonate via electrophilic substitution (reaction (I)) and oxidative addition (reaction (II)) is simulated. In both cases, the formation of the products is thermodynamically favorable: the decrease in energy is 31 kcal/mol for reaction (I) and 26 kcal/mol for reaction (II). The product of reaction (II) is additionally stabilized by Au-H interaction. Both reactions have a low activation barrier and proceed via the formation of structurally different methane complexes reducing the energy of the system by 9.3 kcal/mol for reaction (I) and by 10.9 kcal/mol for reaction (II). The complex [Au(H₂O)(acac)] is also capable of forming methane complexes. These complexes result from a thermally neutral reaction and turn into products after overcoming a low energy barrier. The structure of the complex activating methane in the gold-rutin system is deduced from the data obtained.     

Biosynthesis of riboflavin. The reaction catalyzed by 6,7-dimethyl-8-ribityllumazine synthase can proceed without enzymatic catalysis under physiological conditions

6,7-Dimethyl-8-ribityllumazine is the biosynthetic precursor of the vitamin, riboflavin. The biosynthetic formation of the lumazine by condensation of 5-amino-6-ribitylamino-2,4(1H,3H)-pyrimidinedione and 3,4-dihydroxy-2-butanone 4-phosphate is catalyzed by the enzyme, lumazine synthase. We show that the condensation reaction can proceed without enzyme catalysis in dilute aqueous solution at room temperature and neutral pH. The reaction rate is proportional to e (pH). The activation energy of the uncatalyzed reaction is E(a) = 46.3 kJ mol(-)(1). The regioselectivity of the uncatalyzed reaction increases with pH and temperature (70% at 65 degrees C and pH 7.75). The data suggest partitioning of the uncatalyzed reaction via two different reaction pathways. The value of k(cat)/k(uncat) may be indicative for an entropy driven process for the enzyme-catalyzed reaction.

Catalytic effect of copper on the hexacyanoferrate(III)-cyanide redox reaction-I The uncatalysed and catalysed reactions

A kinetic study of the hexacyanoferrate(III)-cyanide redox reaction has been made in connection with development of a new catalytic method for copper. The reaction kinetics change with time from first- to second-order dependence with respect to hexacyanoferrate(III). The reaction is nearly inverse first-order with respect to hexacyanoferrate(II) and first-order with respect to cyanide. The reaction shows a strong positive primary salt effect, but a very small increase in the reaction rate with temperature is found. A parallel reaction proceeds with a first-order dependence with respect to hydroxide. A tentative mechanism is proposed for the first reaction, involving the formation of cyanogen radicals. The second reaction corresponds to the well-known decomposition of hexacyanoferrate(III) in alkaline medium. The catalysed reaction exhibits similar kinetics with respect to hexacyanoferrate(II) and (III) but is zero-order with respect to cyanide and hydroxide and first-order with respect to catalyst. The proposed mechanism involves two consecutive interactions of the hexacyanoferrate(III) with copper(I) and with copper(II) cyanide complexes respectively, followed by a 2-electron oxidation of a co-ordinatively bridging cyanide group.

Kinetics of the metal-exchange reaction of deuteroporphyrin and gematoporphyrin cadmium complexes with cobalt chloride in acetonitrile

The metal-exchange reaction of cadmium deuteroporphyrin (CdDP) and cadmium gematoporphyrin (CdGP) with cobalt chloride in acetonitrile is studied spectrophotometrically.

The results are compared with the exchange reaction of cadmium mesoporphyrin and cadmium protoporphyrin with cobalt acetate in acetonitrile. Substituents in the 2,4-positions of cadmium complexes of protoporphyrins are shown to influence the rate of the metal-exchange reaction. The increasing order of the rates of the metal-exchange reaction between protoporphyrins and cobalt chloride in acetonitrile is established.

Sodium chloride-catalyzed oxidation of multiwalled carbon nanotubes for environmental benefit

A sodium chloride (NaCl) catalyst (0.1 w/w %) lowers the oxidation temperature of graphitized multiwalled carbon nanotubes: MWCNT-20 (diameter: 20-70 nm) and MWCNT-80 (diameter: 80-150 nm). The analysis of the reaction kinetics indicates that the oxidation of MWCNT-20 and MWCNT-80 mixed with no NaCl exhibits single reaction processes with activation energies of E(a) = 159 and 152 kJ mol(-1), respectively. The oxidation reaction in the presence of NaCl is shown to consist of two different reaction processes, that is, a first reaction and a second reaction process. The first reaction process is dominant at a low temperature of around 600 degrees C, while the second reaction process becomes more dominant than the first one in a higher temperature region. The activation energies of the first reaction processes (MWCNT-20: E(a1) = 35.7 kJ mol(-1); MWCNT-80: E(a1) = 43.5 kJ mol(-1)) are much smaller than those of the second reaction processes (MWCNT-20: E(a2) = 170 kJ mol(-1); MWCNT-80: E(a2) = 171 kJ mol(-1)). The comparison of the kinetic parameters and the results of the spectroscopic and microscopic analyses imply that the lowering of the oxidation temperature in the presence of NaCl results from the introduction of disorder into the graphitized MWCNTs (during the first reaction process), thus increasing the facility of the oxidation reaction of the disorder-induced nanotubes (in the second reaction process). It is found that the larger nanopits and cracks on the outer graphitic layers are caused by the catalytic effect of NaCl. Therefore, the NaCl-mixed samples showed more rapid and stronger oxidation compared with that of the nonmixed samples at the same residual quantity.     

Kinetics of phenol oxidation with ozone in a thin layer on a solid surface

Ozone has been reacted with phenol in thin supported layers, and the dynamics of this reaction has been investigated. The stoichiometry of this reaction coincides with the stoichiometry of the same reaction in solution. Specific reaction rate (β) has been determined for various phenol conversions. The effective rate constant of the reaction, estimated by extrapolating β to zero reaction time, is significantly higher than the rate constant of the reaction in solution. The reaction between ozone and phenol is diffusion-controlled. The reaction products form a barrier layer, which protects the deeper phenol layers against ozone. The barrier layer is as thick as 8–15 phenol monolayers.     

Nitrite impurities are responsible for the reaction observed between vitamin B12 and nitric oxide in acidic aqueous solution

The reaction between aquacobalamin, Cbl(H2O), and NO was studied at low pH. As previously reported, the final product of the reaction is the same as that obtained in the reaction of NO and reduced Cbl(H2O), viz. Cbl(NO-). Nevertheless, this reductive nitrosylation is preceded by a faster reaction (accompanied by small absorbance changes) that depends on the HNO2 concentration but not on the NO concentration. Kinetic and UV-vis spectroscopic data show that Cbl(NO2-) is generated during this reaction. Spectroscopic data show that the dimethylbenzimidazole group trans to the NO2- ligand is protonated and partially dechelated at pH 1, by which a reaction with NO is induced. DFT calculations were performed to compare the ability of NO and NO2- to bind to cobalamin and their influence on the stability of the dimethylbenzimidazole group. The reductive nitrosylation reaction shows a quadratic dependence on the HNO2 concentration and an inverse dependence on the NO concentration. It also strongly depends on pH and is no longer observed at pH > 4. On the basis of earlier work performed on a series of Co(III) porphyrins, a mechanism is proposed that can quantitatively account for the HNO2 and NO dependencies. The reductive nitrosylation reaction is practically dominated by a back reaction, i.e., the reaction between Cbl(NO-) and HNO2, which accounts for the strange NO and HNO2 concentration dependencies observed.     

N(4S)+CH3X(X=Cl、Br)反应机理的理论研究

The reaction of N(4S)+CH3X(X=Cl、Br) was studied by the ab initio method. The geometries of the reactants, transition states and products were optimized at the MP2/6-311+G(d,p) level. The corresponding vibration frequencies were calculated at the same level. The single-point calculations for all the stationary points were carried out at the MP2/6-311++G(3df,2p) and the QCISD(T)/6-311+G(d,p) levels using the MP2/6-311+G(d,p) optimized geometries. The energies of all the stationary points were calculated by the G2MP2 method. The results of this theoretical study indicate that the reaction has three reaction channels: H abstraction reaction channel a, Cl or Br abstraction reaction channel b and substitution reaction channel c. For the N(4S)+CH3Cl reaction, reaction channel a is the main reaction channel. Reaction channels b and c may have a slight contribution in the reaction. For the N(4S)+CH3Br reaction, reaction channel a is the main reaction channel. Reaction channels b and c may have some contribution in the reaction.

Transition-metal-free Suzuki-type coupling reactions: scope and limitations of the methodology

The scope and limitations of the transition-metal-free Suzuki-type coupling of aryl halides and arylboronic acids to form biaryls are presented. Confirmation that the reaction is indeed metal-free is presented. The effects of changing base, solvent, reaction temperature, phase-transfer catalyst, and substrate are shown and the implications of these results discussed in terms of their impact on the synthetic versatility of the methodology. The main findings are that the reaction works well for aryl bromides, water is necessary as a solvent for the reaction, the optimum temperature for the reaction is 150 degrees C, the reaction is best performed by using microwave promotion with the exception of an electron-poor aryl bromide example where conventional heating may be used, only limited boronic acids can be used as coupling partners, sodium carbonate is the best base for the reaction, tetrabutylammonium bromide proves to be the best phase-transfer catalyst for the reaction, the reaction is limited to couplings between aryl halides and aryl boronic acids with sp(2)-sp(3) couplings proving ineffective, and NaBPh(4) can be used in the place of phenylboronic acid as a phenylating agent.
