Ion–Dipole Interactions in Concentrated Organic Electrolytes

An algorithm is proposed for calculating the energy of ion–dipole interactions in concentrated organic electrolytes. The ion–dipole interactions increase with increasing salt concentration and must be taken into account when the activation energy for the conductivity is calculated. In this case, the contribution of ion–dipole interactions to the activation energy for this transport process is of the same order of magnitude as the contribution of ion–ion interactions. The ion–dipole interaction energy was calculated for a cell of eight ions, alternatingly anions and cations, placed on the vertices of an expanded cubic lattice whose parameter is related to the mean interionic distance (pseudolattice theory). The solvent dipoles were introduced randomly into the cell by assuming a randomness compacity of 0.58. The energy of the dipole assembly in the cell was minimized by using a Newton–Raphson numerical method. The dielectric field gradient around ions was taken into account by a distance parameter and a dielectric constant of ε=3 at the surfaces of the ions. A fair agreement between experimental and calculated activation energy has been found for systems composed of γ‐butyrolactone (BL) as solvent and lithium perchlorate (LiClO₄), lithium tetrafluoroborate (LiBF₄), lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF₆), lithium hexafluoroarsenate (LiAsF₆), and lithium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI) as salts.     

Dipole moments and structure of poly(epoxypropylcarbazole)

The mean-square molecular dipole moments 〈μ²〉 of carbazole, N-ethylcarbazole and of the sequence of poly(epoxypropylcarbazole) (PEPCa) oligomers of various molecular weights have been evaluated in solutions of these organic compounds in dioxan. For PEPCa the values of 〈μ²〉 have also been determined in the solid state. On the basis of the experimental results and of molecular mechanics calculations it has been shown that the orientation of the lateral group of PEPCa favors noninteracting racemic dyads. The temperature-dependence of the effective dipole moment of solid PEPCa follows the Onsager theory above 295 K.     

Enthalpies of mixing of <Emphasis Type="Italic">o</Emphasis>- and <Emphasis Type="Italic">m</Emphasis>-isomers at 298.15 K

Excess enthalpies (H ^E) of 17 binary mixtures of o- and m-isomers of dichlorobenzene, difluorobenzene, methoxymethylbenzene, dimethylbenzene, dimethoxybenzene, aminofluorobenzene, fluoronitrobenzene, diethylbenzene, chlorofluorobenzene, fluoroiodobenzene, bromofluorobenzene, chloromethylbenzene, fluoromethylbenzene, bromomethylbenzene, iodomethylbenzene, fluoromethoxybenzene, dibromobenzene at 298.15 K were measured. All excess enthalpies measured were very small, and those of o-+m-isomers of aminofluorobenzene, dibromobenzene and iodomethylbenzene were negative but 14 other binary mixtures of isomers were positive over the whole range of mole fractions. H ^E of o-+m-isomers of dimethoxybenzene showed the largest enthalpic instability and those of aminofluorobenzene showed the largest enthalpic stability. There was a correlation between dipole–dipole interaction, dipole–induced dipole interaction or entropies of vaporization and excess partial molar enthalpies at infinite dilution.     

Mechanism for large first hyperpolarizabilities of phosphonic acid stilbene derivatives

This paper presents calculations of dipole moments (mu), static polarizabilities (alpha), and first hyperpolarizabilities (beta) of phosphonic acid stilbene derivatives calculated in the framework of density functional theory. These calculations were performed using a finite field approach implemented in the density functional program ALLCHEM and were of an all-electron type using local exchange-correlation functional and specially designed basis sets. The molecular structures have been fully optimized using the semiempirical program MSINDO. Some of the investigated stilbenes have been synthesized very recently while others are described for the first time. Donor and acceptor groups of these analogues have been modified and the influence of these changes on the first hyperpolarizabilities has been investigated. This work demonstrates that the nonlinear optical response beta of these compounds increases dramatically when the acceptor moiety is displaced by analogues containing alkali metal groups. A general mechanism for the design of novel nonlinear optical materials with large first hyperpolarizabilities is described.

Kerr constants and dipole moments of aminobenzoic acids in dioxane

Aminobenzoic acids in dioxane have been investigated by dipole moment and Kerr effect methods.m-Aminobenzoic acid exists in a solution mainly (60 %) in thesyn-form. Inp-aminobenzoic acid, conjugation flattens the pyramidal configuration of the nitrogen atom, which is even more flattened ino-aminobenzoic acid owing to an intramolecular hydrogen bond.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

STUDY OF ACOUSTIC EMISSION DURING NON-ISOTHERMAL CRYSTALLIZATION OF POLYPROPYLENE

In this paper we have presented the results of acoustic emission (AE) during non-isothemal crystallization of polypropylene (PP) melt with mean cooling rate 4℃/min, and discussed the effects of molecular weight (MW) on AE activity. It is shown that the amount of AE ring-down counts during whole crystallization of PP depends on the MW strongly.The copious AE bursts have been observed at the late stage of PPcrystallization. AE bursts are caused by cracking, crazing and cavitation between spherulites and inside spherulites.     

On the role of localized molecular orbitals in the formation of bond dipoles

The hypothesis of the classical chemistry about bond dipoles resulting from shifts of separate pairs of electrons is proved using the non-canonical method of molecular orbitals (MOs). To this end, a relation is sought between the total charge distribution inside an individual chemical bond of a polyatomic molecule and the square of the respective single localized MO (LMO). General expressions for these MOs are obtained directly on the basis of the Brillouin theorem without invoking additional localization criteria. The two characteristics under comparison are presented in an explicit algebraic form in terms of meaningful components. Reshaping of square of the ‘own’ LMO of the given bond is shown to play the decisive role in the formation of secondary dipoles of initially homopolar bonds (e.g. of C–C and C–H bonds in substituted alkanes), as well as of bonds of relatively low initial polarity. Thus, representability of these dipoles by shifts of the ‘own’ pairs of electrons of respective bonds is supported. For bonds of a high initial polarity, the secondary dipoles are shown to originate mainly from contributions of LMOs of other bonds extending over the antibonding basis orbital of the given bond. Moreover, the actual secondary bond dipole takes an opposite direction vs. that predicted by the shift of the respective ‘own’ pair of electrons in this case. The latter result serves to account for the known low nucleofugality of highly electronegative heteroatoms in the S_N2 reactions.
