First-principles study of the adsorption of formaldehyde on the clean and atomic oxygen covered Cu(1 1 1) surface

The interaction of formaldehyde with the clean and atomic oxygen-covered Cu(1 1 1) surfaces has been studied by means of cluster model density functional calculations in which Cu₂₂(14,8) is used to represent the perfect Cu(1 1 1) surface. The calculations point towards a η¹-H₂CO---O orientation with the oxygen atom almost on top of a copper surface atom. The formaldehyde adsorption energy is of 22–25 kJ/mol and the internal geometry of adsorbed formaldehyde is almost identical to that of the molecule in the gas-phase. The C---O bond is almost parallel to the surface and the conformation with the molecular plane normal to the surface is slightly preferred to the conformation with the molecular plane nearly parallel to the surface. A Cu₂₂---O model where atomic oxygen is adsorbed on a fcc hollow site was used to study the co-adsorption and reaction of formaldehyde with atomic oxygen. Oxygen co-adsorption has a dramatic effect on the formaldehyde adsorption energy which is increased by 50%. The calculated energy barrier for the formation of the dioxymethylene intermediate species through the H₂CO+O→H₂CO₂ reaction is of 36 kJ/mol.

Synthesis, crystal structure and magnetic properties of a novel complex [Cu(NIT2Py)(PDA)(H2O)]·(CH3OH)(H2O)

A novel complex [Cu(NIT2Py)(PDA)(H₂O)]·(CH₃OH)(H₂O) has been synthesized and structurally characterized by X-ray diffraction methods. It crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2(1)/c. The structure consists of [Cu(NIT2Py)(PDA)(H₂O)] moiety, one solvent methanol molecule and one water molecule. The copper(II) ion is in a distorted octahedral environment: one nitrogen atom and one oxygen atom from the NIT2Py, one nitrogen atom from the PDA (2,6-pyridine dicarboxylic acid) and one oxygen atom from the aqueous in the basal plane; two oxygen atoms from the PDA in the axial position. The units of [Cu(NIT2Py)(PDA)(H₂O)] were connected as one dimension chain by the intermolecular hydrogen bonds. The complex exhibits intramolecular antiferromagnetic interactions between the Cu(II) ion and the NIT2Py.     

Water monomer interaction with gold nanoclusters from van der Waals density functional theory

We investigate the interaction between water molecules and gold nanoclusters Au(n) through a systematic density functional theory study within both the generalized gradient approximation and the nonlocal van der Waals (vdW) density functional theory. Both planar (n = 6-12) and three-dimensional (3D) clusters (n = 17-20) are studied. We find that applying vdW density functional theory leads to an increase in the Au-Au bond length and a decrease in the cohesive energy for all clusters studied. We classify water adsorption on nanoclusters according to the corner, edge, and surface adsorption geometries. In both corner and edge adsorptions, water molecule approaches the cluster through the O atom. For planar clusters, surface adsorption occurs in a O-up/H-down geometry with water plane oriented nearly perpendicular to the cluster. For 3D clusters, water instead favors a near-flat surface adsorption geometry with the water O atom sitting nearly atop a surface Au atom, in agreement with previous study on bulk surfaces. Including vdW interaction increases the adsorption energy for the weak surface adsorption but reduces the adsorption energy for the strong corner adsorption due to increased water-cluster bond length. By analyzing the adsorption induced charge rearrangement through Bader's charge partitioning and electron density difference and the orbital interaction through the projected density of states, we conclude that the bonding between water and gold nanocluster is determined by an interplay between electrostatic interaction and covalent interaction involving both the water lone-pair and in-plane orbitals and the gold 5d and 6s orbitals. Including vdW interaction does not change qualitatively the physical picture but does change quantitatively the adsorption structure due to the fluxionality of gold nanoclusters.     

洁净和氧吸附的Cu(100)表面重构的理论研究

The interaction of atomic oxygen with the clean Cu(100) surface has been studied by means of cluster and periodic slab models density functional theory in the present paper. The Cu(4,9,4) cluster and a three-layer slab with c(2×2) structure are used to model the perfect Cu(100) surface. Three possible adsorption sites,top, bridge and hollow site, were considered in the calculations. The predicted results show that the hollow site is the prefer site for atomic oxygen adsorbed on Cu(100) surface energetically. This is in good agreement with the experiment. The calculated binding energies are respective 2.014, 3.154 and 3.942 eV for top, bridge and hollow sites at mPW1PW91/LanL2dz level for the cluster model. The geometry of Cu(100) surface has also been optimized theoretically with various density functional methods and the results show that the prediction from the B3PW91/LanL2dz and mPW1PW91/LanL2dz reproduce the experimental observation.The frontier molecular orbitals and partial density of states analysis show that the electron transfer from the d orbital of substrate to the p orbital of the surface oxygen atom.     

A Novel Layered Complex with Rhomboidal Channels： Hydrothermal Synthesis, Crystal Structure, and Properties of Cu （4,4′-bipy）2（H2PO4）2（H2O）2（bipy=bipyridine）

The combination of both 4,4′-bipyridine(4,4′-bipy) and dihydrogen phosphate anion ligands with copper(Ⅱ) results in the formation of a novel layered compound Cu(4,4′-bipy)₂(H₂PO₄)₂(H₂O)₂. The crystal structure comprises discrete neutral Cu(4,4′-bipy)₂(H₂PO₄)₂(H₂O)₂ units. The copper atom, located on the crystallographic twofold axis, is coordinated with two nitrogen atoms of terminal 4,4′-bipy ligands and two water molecules at the equatorial positions, and two dihydrogen phosphate oxygen atoms at the axial positions, forming an elongated octahedron. The complex is a two-dimensional distorted rhomboidal network possessing two kinds of rhomboids with dimensions of ca. 1.6792 nm×0.3203 nm and 1.2778 nm×0.3198 nm, respectively. The two-dimensional networks are stacked parallelly on each other along c-axis to give an extended three-dimensional channel network with an interlayer distance of ca. 0.5030 nm. Crystal data: triclinic, space group P1, a=1.0253(2) nm, b=1.4501(3) nm, c=0.79715(16) nm, α=97.91(3)°, β=90.99(3)°, γ=85.54(3)°, V=1.1703(4) nm³, Z=2, R=0.0892, wR=0.2451.     

DFT studies of the interactions of a graphene layer with small water aggregates

We have investigated the structure, adsorption, electronic states, and charge transfer of small water aggregates on the surface of a graphene layer using density functional theory. Our calculations were focused on water adsorbates containing up to five water molecules interacting with one and both sides of a perfect freestanding sheet. Different orientations of the aggregates with respect to the graphene sites were considered. The results show that the adsorption energy of one water molecule is primarily determined by its orientation, although it is also strongly dependent on the implemented functional scheme. Despite its intrinsic difficulties with dispersion interactions, the Perdew and Wang's exchange-correlation functional may be a viable alternative to investigate the adsorption of large molecular aggregates on a graphene surface. Although water physisorption is expected to occur in the regime of droplets, we found no induced impurity states close to the Fermi level of graphene interacting with small water clusters. In order to investigate the donor/acceptor tendency of the water clusters on graphene, we have performed a Bader charge analysis. Considering the charge transfer mechanism, we have noticed that it should preferentially occur from water to graphene only when the oxygen atom is pointing toward the surface. Otherwise, and in the case of larger adsorbed clusters, charge transfers systematically occur from graphene to water.     

Absorption, fluorescence, and semiempirical ASED-MO studies on a typical Brooker''s merocyanine dye

Solvatochromism and Solvatofluorchromism of Brooker's merocyanine 1-methyl-4- (4′-hydroxystyryl) pyridinium betaine, M, were studied in twelve polar protic and aprotic solvents. Moderate hypsochromic fluorescence energy shifts are 4.57 kcal mole⁻¹ while strong hypsochromic absorption energy shifts are 16.63 kcal mole⁻¹. Decreasing of the dipole moment of M upon excitation is the factor, which is responsible for the difference between the two energy shifts. The change of both energies rectilinearly with solvent acidity scale shows the importance of oxygen atom of M as a strong basic center. The application of the atom superposition and electron delocalization molecular orbital (ASED-MO) theory reproduces geometrical and electronic structures for M, which agree well with the experimental observations. The calculations suggest strongly that the dye has a benzenoid valence structure in the ground state and shifts towards a quinonoid one upon excitation with an observed decreasing of the dipole moment. The changing of the dipole moment is explained clearly depending upon the calculated charge distribution over the whole skeleton of the molecule. The formation of a H-bond between the water molecule and the highly negative oxycyclic oxygen atom of M has slightly effect on its dipole moment in the ground state. This leads to suggest that this kind of interaction could be represented as attacking of water with acidic character on the basic site of M. Also, the calculations predict that the formation of monohydrated complex is an exothermic, down hill reaction, which is confirmed from the stabilization of the frontier molecular orbitals, oxygen lone-pair and the HOMO levels.
