Theoretical Study of Small Water Clusters of Sulfur Dioxide

The intermolecular clusters of sulfur dioxide with water, SO2(H2O)n (n = 2～5), are studied by using B3LYP density functional theory and MP2 ab initio methods along with the large basis sets (6-311++G(d,p) and aug-cc-pVDZ). The equilibrium geometries, intermolecular binding energies, and anharmonic frequencies of the clusters are calculated and compared with those of pure water clusters and available experiments. SO2 tends to form cyclic hydrogen-bonded complexes with two or three water molecules. In the larger clusters, however, water molecules begin to retain the structure of pure water clusters and segregate from SO2. Infrared absorption assignments for the small clusters are discussed to resolve a possible incorrect assignment in a recent spectroscopic experiment on the clusters.

大气中硫酸生成反应势能面的量子化学研究

A new potential energy surface (PES) for the atmospheric formation of sulfuric acid from OH+SO₂ is investigated using density functional theory and high-level ab initio molecular orbital theory. A pathway focused on the new PES assumes the reaction to take place between the radical complex SO₃·HO₂ and H₂O. The unusual stability of SO₃·HO₂ is the principal basis of the new pathway, which has the same final outcome as the current reaction mechanism in the literature but it avoids the production and complete release of SO₃. The entire reaction pathway is composed of three consecutive elementary steps:(1) HOSO₂+O₂→SO₃·HO₂, (2) SO₃·HO₂+H₂O→SO₃·H₂O·HO₂, (3) SO₃·H₂O·HO₂→H₂SO₄+HO₂. All three steps have small energy barriers, under 10 kcal/mol, and are exothermic, and the new pathway is therefore favorable both kinetically and thermodynamically. As a key step of the reactions, step (3), HO₂ serves as a bridge molecule for low-barrier hydrogen transfer in the hydrolysis of SO₃. Two significant atmospheric implications are expected from the present study. First, SO₃ is not released from the oxidation of SO₂ by OH radical in the atmosphere. Second, the conversion of SO₂ into sulfuric acid is weakly dependent on the humidity of air.     

大气中一元酸催化亚硫酸分解反应的从头算及动力学研究

采用从头算的理论计算方法,在CCSD（T）/aug-cc-pVDZ//MP2/aug-cc-pVDZ水平下,对甲酸、乙酸、丙酸和硝酸催化亚硫酸分解成二氧化硫和水的微观反应机理进行了理论研究.结果表明,这4种一元酸均可使亚硫酸分解反应能垒显著降低,降低幅度由大到小的顺序为丙酸 > 乙酸 > 甲酸 > 硝酸.其中,丙酸甚至使反应能垒从裸反应时的99.84 kJ/mol降至27.24 kJ/mol.在此基础上,计算了200~320 K温度范围内4种一元酸催化亚硫酸分解反应的速率常数,并结合它们在大气中的实际浓度计算了有效速率常数.结果表明,在实际大气环境中,乙酸对亚硫酸分解反应的催化效果最为显著.当乙酸存在时,亚硫酸在室温下的大气寿命仅为0.02 s.     

A Density Functional Theory Study of the Hydrates of 2NH_3:H_2SO_4 and Its Implications for the Formation of Atmosphere Particles

Density functional theory was used at the B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) level of theory to study the hydrates of 2NH3:H2SO4:nH2O for n = 0～4. Neutrals of the most stable clusters, when n = 0 and 1, spontaneously formed and were determined to be hydrogen-bonded molecular complexes of monomeric species. Double ions (clusters containing a NH4+ cation and a HSO4- anion) or even ternary ions (clusters with two NH4+ cations and one SO42- anion) spontaneously formed in the most stable clusters of 2NH3:H2SO4:nH2O (n = 2, 3, 4). The energetics of binding and incremental association was also calculated. Double ions are not energetically favorable until 2NH3:H2SO4:2H2O because of the about equal free energies for forming the neutral (the most stable) and double ion (the second stable) isomers. The free energy of incremental association from free H2O and 2NH3:H2SO4:nH2O has a maximum at n = 2 at room temperature with ΔG ≈ -2 kcal/mol. The comparison of incremental association energies between 2NH3:H2SO4:nH2O, NH3:H2SO4:nH2O and H2SO4:nH2O clusters revealed that NH3 plays an important role in the atmospheric particle nucleation.
