Dielectric Relaxation Study of Liquids Having Chloro Group with Associated Liquids. I. Chlorobenzene with Methanol, Ethanol, and 1-Propanol

The complex permittivity for chlorobenzene–alcohol binary mixtures have been determined over the frequency range of 10 MHz to 20 GHz, at 15, 25, 35, and 45°C, using the time-domain reflectometry (TDR) method for 11 concentrations of each chlorobenzene–alcohol system. The alcohols used were methanol, ethanol, and 1-propanol. The values of static dielectric constant, relaxation time, the corresponding excess properties, the Redlich–Kister coefficients up to the third order, the Kirkwood correlation factor, and thermodynamic parameters of the mixtures have been determined. The excess permittivity is found to be negative for chlorobenzene–methanol and chlorobenzene–ethanol, whereas it is positive in the 1-propanol rich region. The excess inverse relaxation time is negative for all the systems studied here. The Kirkwood effective correlation factor increases with an increasing in the molecular size of the alcohol, but decreases with increasing temperature.

Covalent-ionic nature of the potential energy surface of the Li-CO2 complex

Unrestricted Hartree-Fock calculations with large basis sets, including d-functions, and the estimation of the correlation energy, show that the potential energy surface for the Li-CO₂ complex is built from the crossing of two states, each of them corresponding to a different electron arrangement. One has a strong ionic character and the other is of van der Waals type. Each portion of the energy surface presents a minimum, which is stable in respect to the dissociation limit.     

Small angle X-ray scattering investigations of thermodynamic properties of fluid mixtures

Absolute small angle X-ray studies of concentration fluctuations were performed in order to determine thermodynamic properties of a model blend, consisting ofn-hexane and perfluoro-n-hexane. The quantities which we determined were the second derivate of the Gibbs free energy of mixing with respect to the concentration of the components, the location of the spinodal, interaction and solubility parameters, the energy gradient density coefficient as well as the correlation length of the fluctuations at various compositions and temperatures, particularly in the neighbourhood of the spinodal and the critical point. The data obtained were compared with those obtainable from the well known location of the binodal, to test the reliability of the scattering method.

Fractional occupation numbers and spin density functional calculations of degenerate systems

We implemented ab initio self‐consistent field (SCF) fractional occupation numbers (FON) calculation with Dunlap's interpolation scheme for the twisted ethylene, which is a prototype molecule of a σ–π biradical system. The calculational results are compared with those of complete‐active‐space (CAS) SCF and spin‐unrestricted Kohn–Sham (UKS) calculations on potential surfaces, occupation numbers of natural orbitals, and correlation entropies. It was found that the UKS methods gave similar results to CASSCF, while the FON solutions appeared in only the nearly complete degenerate region. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Lithium insertion into In2S3 studied by perturbed γ-γ angular correlation

Li_xIn₂S₃ was electrochemically prepared with different small amounts x of lithium (0?x?0.13) in order to maintain the initial crystallographic structure of the thiospinel In₂S₃. About 10¹² radioactive ¹¹¹In ions have been implanted into these samples at 400 keV to perform PAC experiments in the temperature range from 10 to 773 K. The results are compared to previous experiments with undoped In₂S₃ samples. According to the structure of In₂S₃ in the β-phase, which belongs to the I4₁/amd space group having a unit cell with 32 In and 48 S atoms and the cell parameters α=7.61 Å and c=32.28 Å, three different electric field gradients were observed. Within two different temperature ranges dynamical EFGs occur, which are clearly influenced by the insertion of Lithium. The strong dependence of one EFG on the Li concentration x can be correlated to the effective charge of the In ions. This correlation is discussed with respect to XRD analyses of the Li_xIn₂S₃ samples and to XANES measurements on a similar sample.     

Time correlation functions of a one-dimensional infinite system

We investigate the time evolution of a simple one-dimensional system with an infinite number of particles. We calculate some time correlation functions and show that they behave asymptotically as 1/t.     

Electron correlation effects on the shape of the Kohn–Sham molecular orbital

Even systems in which strong electron correlation effects are present, such as the large near-degeneracy correlation in a dissociating electron pair bond exemplified by stretched H₂, are represented in the Kohn–Sham (KS) model of non-interacting electrons by a determinantal wavefunction built from the KS molecular orbitals. As a contribution to the discussion on the status and meaning of the KS orbitals we investigate, for the prototype system of H₂ at large bond distance, and also for a one-dimensional molecular model, how the electron correlation effects show up in the shape of the KS σ _g orbital. KS orbitals φ^HL and φ^FCI obtained from the correlated Heitler-London and full configuration interaction wavefunctions are compared to the orbital φ^LCAO, the traditional linear combination of atomic orbitals (LCAO) form of the (approximate) Hartree-Fock orbital. Electron correlation manifests itself in an essentially non-LCAO structure of the KS orbitals φ^HL and φ^FCI around the bond midpoint, which shows up particularly clearly in the Laplacian of the KS orbital. There are corresponding features in the kinetic energy density t _s of the KS system (a well around the bond midpoint) and in the one-electron KS potential v _s (a peak). The KS features are lacking in the Hartree-Fock orbital, in a minimal LCAO approximation as well as in the exact one. Received: 11 December 1996 / Accepted: 10 January 1997     

Special Mixing Behavior of Chelate-based Ionic Liquid with Methanol

Compared to the general ionic liquids (ILs), a significant deviation of the binary mixtures of 1-decyl-3-methylimidazolium tri(hexafluoroacetylaceto)-copper(II) ([C₁₀mim][Cu(hfacac)₃]) with methanol was found, indicating the way methanol interacts with ILs might be governed by the special structure of the chelating anion. IR results showed that the (C2-H) of 1-decyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluoroacetylacetonate ([C₁₀mim][hfacac]) blue-shifted more significantly than that of [C₁₀mim][Cu(hfacac)₃], meanwhile the (C=O) red-shifted in [C₁₀mim][Cu(hfacac)₃], which is contrast with that in [C₁₀mim][hfacac]. Two-dimensional correlation analysis of the FTIR spectra indicated that the chelating cavity has little effect on the sequence of the ILs sites that interact with methanol. Combined with small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) results, the picture of mixing processes in these two systems were proposed. Methanol interacts directly with the anion followed by the cation in [C₁₀mim][hfacac], while methanol preferentially enters the chelating cavity and enhances the packing effect in the [C₁₀mim][Cu(hfacac)₃] system.
