Stereochemical assignments of aldol products of 2‐arylimino‐3‐aryl‐thiazolidine‐4‐ones by 1H NMR

The aldol reactions of 2‐arylimino‐3‐aryl‐thiazolidine‐4‐ones with benzaldehyde carried out at ?78 °C were found to produce sec‐carbinols. Intramolecular hydrogen bonding within the aldol products forming a six‐membered ring enabled the assignment of stereochemistries of the major and minor diastereomers via analysis of the syn and anti ³J_H,H ¹H NMR coupling constants.

On the Populations of Neon Levels in the Low Temperature Plasma of a Hollow Cathode Discharge

Atomic levels population measurements constitute an essential contribution to various aspects of plasma research: balance and cross-section of inelastic processes, admixtures effects on level excitation mechanism, purposeful optimisation of plasma parameters etc. Atomic level populations in the negative glow of a hollow cathode discharge are of utmost interest in view of the peculiarities of the spectral source: a rich spectrum consisting of gas lines, lines of the cathode material and also lines of the substances introduced in the discharge; intensive atomic and ionic lines of high excitation potentials; small spectral linewidth, convenient for analytical purposes.     

Vibrational spectra and reinvestigation of the crystal structure of a polymeric copper(II)-orotate complex, [Cu(μ-HOr)(H2O)2]n: The performance of new DFT methods, M06 and M05-2X, in theoretical studies

The crystal and molecular structure of a polymeric Cu(II)-orotate complex, [Cu(μ-HOr)(H₂O)₂]_n, has been reinvestigated by single crystal X-ray diffraction. It is shown that several synergistic interactions: two axial Cu-O interactions; intramolecular and intermolecular hydrogen bonds; and π-π stacking between the uracil rings contribute to the stability of the crystal structure. The Raman and FT-IR spectra of the title complex are reported for the first time. Comprehensive theoretical studies have been performed by using three unrestricted DFT methods: B3LYP; and the recently developed M06, and M05-2X density functionals. Clear-cut assignments of all the bands in the vibrational spectra have been made on the basis of the calculated potential energy distribution, PED. The very strong Raman band at 1219 cm⁻¹ is diagnostic for the N1-deprotonation of the uracil ring and formation of the copper-nitrogen bond, in this complex. The Cu-O (carboxylate) stretching vibration is observed at 287 cm⁻¹ in the IR spectrum, while the Cu-N (U ring) stretching vibration is assigned to the strong Raman band at 263 cm⁻¹. The molecular structure and vibrational spectra (frequencies and intensities) calculated by the M06 functional method are very similar to the results obtained by the B3LYP method, but M06 performs better than B3LYP in calculations of the geometrical parameters and vibrational frequencies of the interligand O-H?O hydrogen bonding. Unfortunately, the M05-2X method seriously overestimates the strength of interligand hydrogen bond.     

Infrared and Raman spectra, conformational stability and vibrational assignment of 1-chloro-1-silacyclopentane

Infrared and Raman spectra (3500-60 cm⁻¹) of gas and/or liquid and solid 1-chloro-1-silacyclopentane (c-C₄H₈SiClH) have been recorded and the vibrational data indicate the presence of a single conformer with no symmetry which is consistent with the twisted form. Ab initio calculations with a variety of basis sets up to MP2(full)/aug-cc-pVTZ predict the envelope-axial and envelope-equatorial conformers are saddle points with nearly the same energies but much lower in energy than the planar conformer. Density functional theory calculations by the B3LYP method predicts slightly lower energies for the two envelope forms and considerably lower for the planar form. By utilizing the MP2(full)/6-31G(d) calculations the force constants, frequencies, infrared intensities, band contours, Raman activities, and depolarization values have been obtained to support the vibrational assignment. Estimated r₀ structural parameters have been obtained from adjusted MP2(full)/6-311 + G(d, p) calculations. These experimental and theoretical results are compared to the corresponding quantities of some other five-membered rings.     

The chemical bonding and spectral assignments of rhodium(III)‐catalyzed closo‐dodecaborate complexes: Ab initio study

The chemical bonding and spectral assignments of rhodium(III)‐catalyzed closo‐dodecaborate (RhCD) complex are systematically studied using the density functional theory calculations. It is found that the calculated main bond lengths of framework are in good agreement with experimental X‐ray observation, and the pronounced hybridization of B‐2p and Rh‐4d states is responsible for the structural stability, reflected by the large dissociation energy and HOMO–LUMO energy gap. The AdNDP chemical bonding analysis indicates that the RhCD complex can be stabilized by two H‐bridged 3c‐2e σ‐bonds (B‐H‐Rh triangles). Additionally, the theoretical calculations reproduce well the main experimental IR spectrum, and the characteristic peaks are properly assigned. These results will be helpful for further insight into the unique electronic structure of the species, and provide valuable references for potential applications in novel materials.     

A generalized Weiszfeld method for the multi-facility location problem

An iterative method is proposed for the K facilities location problem. The problem is relaxed using probabilistic assignments, depending on the distances to the facilities. The probabilities, that decompose the problem into K single-facility location problems, are updated at each iteration together with the facility locations. The proposed method is a natural generalization of the Weiszfeld method to several facilities.     

Normal mode calculation and IR band assignments of A-type zeolite

Normal mode calculation of A-type zeolite was carried out with the potential energy functions obtained from the constraint method. Mass-weighted cartesian coordinates and the pseudo-lattice method were used. The assignments of IR absorption bands were made with the calculated normal modes, by using the calculated absorption intensities of the modes and the degrees of contribution of the internal coordinates to the modes. The force constants of internal coordinate motions within the framework were also calculated and are compared with the empirical values.
