可溶性有机质对污染土壤中铊迁移行为的影响

目的 为了查明可溶性有机质（DOM）对土壤中污染元素铊赋存形态的影响,方法 采用形态分级提取方法,将土壤中的铊重金属分成酸可交换态、铁锰氧化物结合态、有机质结合态和残留态4组分,并采用Elan 6100型ICP-MS质谱仪测定各组分中铊的质量浓度.结果 DOM可降低酸可交换态的Tl,增加铁锰氧化物结合态和有机质结合态Tl的百分含量,但对残留态Tl的百分含量没有明显影响.因此,DOM可降低铊在土壤中的活动性,从而改变了铊在土壤中的迁移行为.结论 可溶性有机质（DOM）自身的络合（螯合）能力及其吸附特性是改变重金属铊形态分布的主要因素.

Extensive ab initio study of the valence and low-lying Rydberg states of BBr including spin-orbit coupling

The electronic states of the BBr molecule, including 12 valence states and 12 low-lying Rydberg states, have been studied at the theoretical level of MR-CISD+Q with all-electron aug-cc-pVQZ basis sets and Douglas-Kroll [Ann. Phys. (N.Y.) 82, 89 (1974)] scalar relativistic correction. The spin-orbit coupling effect in the valence states was calculated by the state interaction approach with the full Breit-Pauli Hamiltonian. This is the first multireference ab initio study of the excited electronic states of BBr. Potential energy curves of all states were plotted with the help of the avoided crossing rule between electronic states of the same symmetry. The structural properties of these states were analyzed. Computational results reproduced most experimental data well. The transition properties of the a (3)Pi(0(+) ), a (3)Pi(1), and A (1)Pi(1) states to the ground state X (1)Sigma(0(+) ) (+) transitions were obtained, including the transition dipole moments, the Franck-Condon factors, and the radiative lifetimes. The evaluated radiative lifetime of the a (3)Pi(0(+) ), and a (3)Pi(1) states are near 1 ms, much longer than that of the A (1)Pi(1) state.     

Intramolecular vibrational energy redistribution as state space diffusion: classical-quantum correspondence

We study the intramolecular vibrational energy redistribution (IVR) dynamics of an effective spectroscopic Hamiltonian describing the four coupled high frequency modes of CDBrClF. The IVR dynamics ensuing from nearly isoenergetic zeroth-order states, an edge (overtone) and an interior (combination) state, is studied from a state space diffusion perspective. A wavelet based time-frequency analysis reveals an inhomogeneous phase space due to the trapping of classical trajectories. Consequently the interior state has a smaller effective IVR dimension as compared to the edge state.     

Absolute free energies of biomolecules from unperturbed ensembles

Computing the absolute free energy of a macromolecule's structural state, F, is a challenging problem of high relevance. This study presents a method that computes F using only information from an unperturbed simulation of the macromolecule in the relevant conformational state, ensemble, and environment. Absolute free energies produced by this method, dubbed V aluation of L ocal C onfiguration I ntegral with D ynamics (VALOCIDY), enable comparison of alternative states. For example, comparing explicitly solvated and vaporous states of amino acid side‐chain analogs produces solvation free energies in good agreement with experiments. Also, comparisons between alternative conformational states of model heptapeptides (including the unfolded state) produce free energy differences in agreement with data from μs molecular‐dynamics simulations and experimental propensities. The potential of using VALOCIDY in computational protein design is explored via a small design problem of stabilizing a β‐turn structure. When VALOCIDY‐based estimation of folding free energy is used as the design metric, the resulting sequence folds into the desired structure within the atomistic force field used in design. The VALOCIDY‐based approach also recognizes the distinct status of the native sequence regardless of minor details of the starting template structure, in stark contrast with a traditional fixed‐backbone approach. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.     

Intramolecular vibrational redistribution in the vibrational predissociation dynamics of He-I2

The intramolecular vibrational redistribution (IVR) process is investigated in wave packet simulations of the vibrational predissociation dynamics of He-I(2)(B,upsilon') in the region of high upsilon' levels, upsilon' = 35-65. The simulations indicate that for upsilon' < or = 45 the dynamics is dominated by direct predissociation, whereas for higher upsilon' levels the onset of IVR appears and becomes increasingly important. The IVR process occurs via coupling of the initial state in the upsilon' manifold to intermediate long-lived resonances belonging to the lower upsilon < upsilon' vibrational manifolds. The IVR dynamics manifests itself in multiexponential behavior and oscillations in the time-dependent population curves associated with the He-I(2)(B,upsilon') initial state, the He-I(2)(B,upsilon < upsilon') intermediate complexes, and the final product states. The population curves corresponding to the upsilon'- 1 intermediate resonances located below the He + I(2)(B,upsilon'-1,j=0) dissociation limit are analyzed. It is found that initial population is transferred to all the intermediate resonance states considered, including those more separated in energy from the initial one. The results obtained for population transfer between the initial and the intermediate states can be explained by the intensity of the matrix elements coupling the initial and the intermediate resonances, in combination with the Rabi's formula for population exchange between two coupled states.     

Probing photophysical and photochemical processes of benzoic acid from ab initio calculations

The CASSCF and DFT methods have been used to determine geometric and electronic structures of the benzoic acid monomer in the S(0), S(1), S(2), T(1), and T(2) electronic states. The S(1)/T(2)/T(1) three-surface intersection was found by the state-averaged CASSCF calculations, which, in combination with features of the five lowest electronic states, provides new insights into photophysical processes of the benzoic acid monomer. The potential energy profiles of the alpha C-C and C-O bond fissions as well as decarboxylation reaction in different electronic states have been determined for the benzoic acid monomer. The alpha C-O bond cleavage starts from the T(2) state and leads to the fragments of C(6)H(5)CO(X(2)A') and OH(X(2)Pi) in the ground state, which is predicted to be the most possible channel upon photoexcitation of the benzoic acid monomer at 270 nm or shorter wavelengths.     

Ground- and excited-state aromaticity and antiaromaticity in benzene and cyclobutadiene

The aromaticity and antiaromaticity of the ground state (S 0), lowest triplet state (T 1), and first singlet excited state (S 1) of benzene, and the ground states (S 0), lowest triplet states (T 1), and the first and second singlet excited states (S 1 and S 2) of square and rectangular cyclobutadiene are assessed using various magnetic criteria including nucleus-independent chemical shifts (NICS), proton shieldings, and magnetic susceptibilities calculated using complete-active-space self-consistent field (CASSCF) wave functions constructed from gauge-including atomic orbitals (GIAOs). These magnetic criteria strongly suggest that, in contrast to the well-known aromaticity of the S 0 state of benzene, the T 1 and S 1 states of this molecule are antiaromatic. In square cyclobutadiene, which is shown to be considerably more antiaromatic than rectangular cyclobutadiene, the magnetic properties of the T 1 and S 1 states allow these to be classified as aromatic. According to the computed magnetic criteria, the T 1 state of rectangular cyclobutadiene is still aromatic, but the S 1 state is antiaromatic, just as the S 2 state of square cyclobutadiene; the S 2 state of rectangular cyclobutadiene is nonaromatic. The results demonstrate that the well-known "triplet aromaticity" of cyclic conjugated hydrocarbons represents a particular case of a broader concept of excited-state aromaticity and antiaromaticity. It is shown that while electronic excitation may lead to increased nuclear shieldings in certain low-lying electronic states, in general its main effect can be expected to be nuclear deshielding, which can be substantial for heavier nuclei.     

Electronic states of the benzene dimer: a simple case of complexity

Electronic structure calculations of the excited states of the benzene dimer using equation-of-motion coupled-cluster method are reported. The calculations reveal large density of electronic states, including multiple valence, Rydberg, and mixed Rydberg-valence states. The calculations of the oscillator strengths for the transitions between the excimer state (i.e., the lowest excited state of the dimer, 1(1)B(1g)) and other excited states allowed us to identify the target state responsible for the excimer absorption as the E(1u) state of a mixed Rydberg-valence character at 3.04 eV above the excimer (1(1)B(1g)). Although at D(6h) the 1(1)B(1g) → E(1u) transition is symmetry-forbidden, small geometric displacements (to D(2h)) that have a negligible effect on the excitation energy split this degenerate state into the dark (4B(3u)) and bright (4B(2u)) components (oscillator strength of 0.3 au). The excitation energy for this transition depends strongly on the dimer structure, which explains the broad character of the experimentally observed excimer absorption spectrum.     

MALDI-ToF mass spectrometry–multivariate data analysis as a tool for classification of reactivation and non-culturable states of bacteria

Some bacterial life states are only difficult to describe and to detect because they are on the border of active metabolism. A prominent example is the so-called viable but non-culturable state, which is mainly characterized by the inability of bacteria to grow on synthetic media. Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-ToF/MS) in combination with multivariate data analysis represents a powerful tool for mass-spectrometric pattern recognition of biological samples. This method is already used for differentiation of bacterial strains. In this study we present a rapid readout method based on MALDI-ToF/MS in combination with principal component analysis to classify the bacterial non-culturable state using Enterococcus faecalis as a model organism. By applying this technique to samples of different physiological states, distinct clusters were calculated and all mass spectra were classified correctly into groups of similar type concerning their physiological state.     

Lanthanoid Complexes as Molecular Materials: The Redox Approach

The development of molecular materials with novel functionality offers promise for technological innovation. Switchable molecules that incorporate redox-active components are enticing candidate compounds due to their potential for electronic manipulation. Lanthanoid metals are most prevalent in their trivalent state and usually redox-activity in lanthanoid complexes is restricted to the ligand. The unique electronic and physical properties of lanthanoid ions have been exploited for various applications, including in magnetic and luminescent materials as well as in catalysis. Lanthanoid complexes are also promising for applications reliant on switchability, where the physical properties can be modulated by varying the oxidation state of a coordinated ligand. Lanthanoid-based redox activity is also possible, encompassing both divalent and tetravalent metal oxidation states. Thus, utilization of redox-active lanthanoid metals offers an attractive opportunity to further expand the capabilities of molecular materials. This review surveys both ligand and lanthanoid centered redox-activity in pre-existing molecular systems, including tuning of lanthanoid magnetic and photophysical properties by modulating the redox states of coordinated ligands. Ultimately the combination of redox-activity at both ligands and metal centers in the same molecule can afford novel electronic structures and physical properties, including multiconfigurational electronic states and valence tautomerism. Further targeted exploration of these features is clearly warranted, both to enhance understanding of the underlying fundamental chemistry, and for the generation of a potentially important new class of molecular material.
