The free-energy profile for the Menshutkin-type reaction NH3 + CH3Cl → NH3CH3
+ + Cl− in aqueous solution is studied using the RISM-SCF method. The effect of electron correlation on the free-energy profile is
estimated by the RISM-MP2 method at the HF optimized geometries along the reaction coordinate. Solvation was found to have
a large influence on the vibrational frequencies at the reactant, transition state and product; these vibrational frequencies
are utilized to calculate the zero-point energy correction of the free-energy profile. The computed barrier height and reaction
exothermicity are in reasonable agreement with those of experiment and previous calculations. The change of solvation structure
along the reaction path is represented by radial distribution functions between solute-solvent atomic sites. The mechanisms
of the reaction are discussed from the view points of solute electronic and solvation structures.

Elicitins are small proteins that are secreted by plant pathogenic fungi. In this work we have used a computer program that
utilizes the boundary element method for heterogeneous dielectrics with ionic strength to calculate the pK
a of all titrating groups in the 98-residue protein β-cryptogein. Our results are in reasonable agreement with the experimentally determined pK
a values for the Tyr residues in the protein. We find that the functionally important Lys13 residue has a normal pK
a of 10.3. Our work also shows that there is no direct correlation between the exposure of an amino acid sidechain and its
pK
a.

structure of the saddle point.

The influences of the reductant concentration of NaBH4 and the quantity of Pt loading on the active surface area and the sensitivity of the Pt/Nafion electrodes prepared by an
impregnation-reduction method in detecting oxygen were investigated in this study. The Pt/Nafion electrodes with a Pt loading
of 4.99 mg/cm2, obtained at 0.0107 M Pt(NH3)4Cl2 and 0.06 M NaBH4, show maximum sensitivities of 0.0528 A/ppm and 0.0538 A/ppm obtained in O2 concentration regions of 0–5000 and 5000–50 000 ppm, respectively. A sensing model was also proposed to illustrate the sensing
phenomenon.

A new method for the evaluation of one- and two-centre magnetic and electric multipole integrals for Slater-type functions
is presented. The method is strictly analytical in that no approximations of any kind are involved. Two simple functions,
ℐ1
aug and ℐ2
aug, are introduced, which employ only functions that are well known in electronic structure theory. With the use of augmentation
exponents these functions apply to multipole integrals as well as other one-electron integrals, such as nuclear attraction
integrals. The proposed method includes the analytic determination of derivatives of the integrals with respect to atomic
displacements. Some illustrative test calculations are presented and compared to results from the literature.

Olivine-structured LiCoPO4 is synthesized by a Pechini-type polymer precursor method. The structure and the morphology of the compounds are studied
by the Rietveld-refined X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, Brunauer, Emmett, and Teller surface area technique,
infrared spectroscopy, and Raman spectroscopy techniques, respectively. The ionic conductivity (σ ionic), dielectric, and electric modulus properties of LiCoPO4 are investigated on sintered pellets by impedance spectroscopy in the temperature range, 27–50 °C. The σ (ionic) values at 27 and 50 °C are 8.8 × 10−8 and 49 × 10−8 S cm−1, respectively with an energy of activation (E
a) = 0.43 eV. The electric modulus studies suggest the presence of non-Debye type of relaxation. Preliminary charge–discharge
cycling data are presented. 相似文献

Ab initio calculations on the lowest singlet and triplet states of 2,2-disilylcyclopentane-1,3-diyl find that the singlet

to be only 0.8 kcal/mol higher than that of 5,5-disilyl-1,3-divinylbicyclo[2.1.0]pentane at this level of theory, but the
transition state for their equilibration is computed to be 12.8 kcal/mol above the diradical in energy.

Ethylene insertion into the Sm–C bond of H2SiCp2SmCH3, a model reaction of an olefin polymerization propagation step, has been studied by ab initio molecular orbital methods.
The small electronegativity of the Sm atom makes the Sm–C bond ionic, the methyl group being negatively charged by −0.75.
The reaction passes through a loose ethylene complex with a binding energy of 15 kcal/mol and then a tight four-centered transition
state with an agostic interaction between the Sm atom and one of the methyl CH bonds. A small activation energy of 14 kcal/mol
is required to pass through this transition state, indicating that this is an easy reaction. Compared with the reactions with
group 4 cationic silylene-bridged metallocenes the activation energy is higher and the reaction is less exothermic. The origin
of these differences is discussed. The results of molecular mechanics calculations on regio- and stereoselectivities in the
insertion reaction of propylene are also reported.

The stability of electrochemically formed NiF2 film in 1.0 M perchloric acid containing monovalent fluorides namely, NH4F, HF, NaF, KF and LiF, is investigated using cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry, atomic absorption spectroscopy and scanning
electron microscopy. In addition to direct dissolution of nickel and dissolution through the oxide layer, a new mode of dissolution
of NiF2 film as NiF3
− and NiF4
2− through complex formation is proposed. This process is significantly influenced by the alkali metal fluorides. On a comparative
basis the stability of NiF2 decreases in the order NH4F > HF > KF > LiF.

The alkalization of carboxylated acrylic polymer latexes by sodium hydroxide gives rise to swelling of the particles. For
a poly(n-butyl acrylate) latex copolymerized with 15 wt % methacrylic acid (MAA) and 7 wt % acrylonitrile the particle volume increases
by a factor of 30. The alkali-swelling does not depend on the type of monovalent cation used in the base (LiOH, NaOH, KOH,
NH4OH). In contrast, when bivalent cation bases such as Ca(OH)2 are employed no latex swelling is observed during neutralization because of ionic crosslinking of the copolymer chains. Crosslinking
also takes place when the bivalent cations (Ca2+, Zn2+, Mg2+) are added as chlorides to dispersions with latexes previously swollen by sodium hydroxide. In these experiments the original
size of the latexes is reached again at a molar ratio MAA: bivalent metal ion of 2:1, i.e. at charge compensation of the carboxyl
groups. The shrinking behavior is almost independent of the type of bivalent metal ion used. On the other hand, it is more
pronounced when trivalent cations such as Fe3+ are added. In general, the experiments demonstrate that the alkali swelling of acrylic latexes is dominated by electrostatic
forces.

Two states of CO− which are expected to live longer than the well-known 2Π shape resonance are examined and the results obtained are compared with the analogous states of the isoelectronic N2
− system. The 4Σ− and 4Π states are found to be stable with respect to dissociation. The latter state is also stable with respect to single-electron
loss to its parent neutral state. The lifetime of this state is supposed to be long, but not necessarily long enough to allow
detection in a mass spectrometer.

Poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) oligomers having alkali metal thiolate groups on the chain ends (PEO
m
-S−M+) were prepared as an ion conductive matrix. The molecular weight of the PEO part (m) and the content of the thiolate groups in the molecule were changed to analyze the effect of carrier ion concentration in
the bulk. In a series of potassium salt derivatives, PEO350-SK showed the highest ionic conductivity of 6.42 × 10−5 S/cm at 50 °C. In spite of a poor degree of dissociation which was derived from the acidity of the thiolate groups, PEO
m
-SM showed quite high ionic conductivity among other PEO/salt hybrids. PEO
m
-SM had glass transition temperatures (T
g) 20 °C lower than other PEO/salt hybrids. Lowering the T
g was concluded to be effective in providing higher ionic conductivity for PEO-based polymer electrolytes.

The sedimentation kinetics of an ochre suspension in salt (NaCl)-containing aqueous media was studied in the presence of
ionogenic (anionic, A, and cationic, C) acrylamide copolymers with high molecular weight (M > 2 × 106) using a VT–0.5 torsion balance. The ionic strength of the dispersion medium varied in the wide range from 0.001 N to 0.4 N.
The flocculation proceeded predominantly by a `bridge' mechanism, and the fraction of macromolecules inactive in the acts
of floccule formation was significantly higher for C copolymer as compared with A copolymer. A drastic fall in the flocculating
activities of A and C copolymers when passing from salt-free to salt-containing media is caused mainly by two following events:
1. The change in the conformational state of macromolecules, primarily, in their effective dimensions
2. The participation of a certain part of electrolyte in the formation and modification of an electrical double layer around
disperse phase particles
After introducing binary compositions of A and C flocculants into salt-containing media their resultant flocculating effect
depends on the introduction mode of polymeric components. A strong difference in the magnitudes of the flocculating effect
for A and C copolymers is observed in water. In the region of high ionic strengths (0.1–0.4 N) this difference becomes far
less distinct. The flocculating activities of A and C copolymers were compared when introduced as the first (λA and λC) and the second (λA
′ and λC
′) additives. It was shown that λA/λA
′>1 and λC/λC
′>1.
Such relationship between λA and λA
′, λC and λC
′ indicates that selective interactions between A and C copolymers play an essential role in the flocculation processes. The
last statement was indirectly confirmed in the present work by the data of electrochemical and viscosimetric studies. When
using C copolymer as the second additive in the region of low ionic strengths its main function undergoes reversal, and the
copolymer begins to operate not as a flocculant, but as a stabilizer of disperse phase particles (λC < 0).

s-trans, s-cis and gauche conformers of 1,3-butadiene have been studied using density functional theory and the coupled-cluster
method using double substitutions (CCD). Matrix isolation Raman and IR data for the minor conformer were obtained and are
used in combination with the theoretical results to resolve earlier ambiguities in vibrational assignments. Based on high-quality
Hessians, new harmonic stretching force constants are reported for the carbon backbone of s-trans-1,3-butadiene. For the minor conformer the best unscaled root mean square error of the calculated frequencies for the s-cis
and gauche geometries are 17.5 cm−1 and 7.4 cm−1, respectively, primarily due to a better agreement of the gauche results for the vibrations at 983 cm−1, 596 cm−1 and 470 cm−1 which depend strongly on the torsional angle. Although this points towards the gauche form rather than the s-cis form, the
calculated transition dipole moment directions at the CCD/6-311G(d,p) level confirm the earlier conclusion that the minor
conformer has C
2
v
symmetry in the matrix. It is concluded that either the better agreement between the frequencies calculated for the gauche
form and the observed values is coincidental, or that the molecule is indeed nonplanar in the matrix and tunnels very rapidly
between the two mirror-image forms (or its lowest vibrational level lies above the barrier).

A solid-state redox reaction involving an insertion of ions is analyzed with respect to the influence of the concentration
of inserting ions in the solution phase. The voltammetric response is independent of the mass transfer in the solution provided
that z = (D

ρ/[C+]* is smaller than 0.1 (D
ss: diffusion coefficient of the cation C+ in the crystal; D
aq: diffusion coefficient of the cation C+ in the solution; ρ: density of the solid compound; [C+]*: concentration of cations in the bulk of the solution). In real cases this condition will be satisfied at solution concentrations
above 1 mol/l.

Symmetry-adapted perturbation theory is extended to the (quasi) degenerate, open-shell case. The new formalism is tested
in calculations of the interaction energies for a helium atom in the ground state interacting with an excited hydrogen atom.
It is shown that the method gives satisfactory results if the coupling with higher Rydberg states of the dimer is small, as
is the case for the A2Σ+,B2Π,E2Π,32Π, and 12Δ states of HeH. For the C2Σ+ state convergence of the method is very slow, but it can be improved by including the n=3 states in the model space.

High-level ab initio electronic structure theories have been applied to investigate the detailed reaction mechanism of the
spin-forbidden reaction CH(2∏) + N2 → HCN + N(4S). The G2M(RCC) calculations provide accurate energies for the intermediates and transition states involved in the reaction,
whereas the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) method overestimates the stability of some intermediates by as much as about 10 kcal/mol. A few new structures have been
found for both the doublet and quartet electronic states, which are mainly involved in the dative pathways. However, due to
the higher energies of these structures, the dominant mechanism remains the one involving the C
2 intersystem-crossing step. The C
2 minima on the seam of crossing (MSX) structures and the spin-orbit coupling between the doublet and quartet electronic states
are rather close to those found in previous studies. Vibrational frequencies orthogonal to the normal of the seam which have
been applied in a separate publication to calculate the rate of the CH(2∏) + N2 → HCN + N(4S) reaction with a newly proposed nonadiabatic transition-state theory for spin-forbidden reactions have been calculated at
the MSX from first principles.

micelles of the same dimeric surfactants with shorter spacers (m = 10 and s = 2, 3, 4 and 6). It was found that for dimeric surfactants with long spacers (s = 8 and 10), both micellar growth and variation in shape occur to only a small extent, if at all, compared with dimeric surfactants
with short spacers. However, for the dimeric surfactant with the longest spacer, s = 12, the extent of micellar growth and shape variation is also large. These results are due to the differences in conformation
of dimeric surfactants with short spacers (s = 2–6) compared with that of the surfactants with long spacers (s = 8–12).

In the framework of a theoretical approach to the relationship between structure and reactivity of the catalytic centers
of enzymes, glyceraldehyde-3 phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) has been chosen as a model enzyme. In GAPDH, the proximity of
His176 increases the reactivity of Cys149 at neutral pH; however, its presence alone is not sufficient to explain the reactivity of the catalytic Cys. In order to
determine which other interactions play an important role, a study of the geometric and electronic structure of the catalytic
site has been made using a hybrid quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics local self-consistent field method. This allows the
computation of the electronic properties of amino acid residues in subsystems influenced by other parts of the macromolecule.
The quantum subsystem was centered on the Cys149 residue of GAPDH. The structures of GAPDH taken from the crystallographic database did not include hydrogen atoms and these
had to be added taking into account the fact that, in the active site, His176 has three tautomeric forms: δ-His protonated, ε-His protonated and His+. The results presented here suggest that the most stable His…Cys system in GAPDH is a strongly hydrogen-bonded Cys149
−/His176
+ ion pair.

The spin-orbit and the spin-spin coupling constants of the 4Πg state of the He2
− ion, of the parent a3Σu
+, and of the b3Πg states of He2 have been evaluated by a multireference configuration interaction method. The theoretical spin-spin splittings of the a3Σu
+ state and the R-dependent spin-spin function are found to be in excellent agreement with experiment, with deviations in the range of a few
MHz. The theoretical spin-orbit constants and splittings of the b3Πg state are larger than the experimental values by about 370 MHz. The spin-orbit coupling constant of the 4Πg state of He2
− is␣estimated to be three times smaller than in the b3Πg state, but one of the intramultiplet off-diagonal spin-spin interactions is predicted to give a large contribution to the
fine structure of the metastable ion. The theoretical fine structure constants for the He2
− ion are expected to␣aid future spectroscopic investigations of the fine structure splittings of the negative ion.
