Radical reactions : The ground‐state potential energy surface of the C2H5O system is investigated by ab initio methods using optimized geometries. The rate constants for the unimolecular isomerization and decomposition reactions of the three isomeric radicals (see picture) are calculated by microcanonical transition‐state theory at 200–3000 K, varying the pressures of the diluents.

Herein, we report on the structure and dynamics of the aqueous Ca2+ system studied by using ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations. Our detailed study revealed the formation of well‐formed hydration shells with characteristics that were significantly different to those of bulk water. To facilitate a robust comparison with state‐of‐the‐art X‐ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) data, we employ a 1st principles MD‐XAFS procedure and directly compare simulated and experimental XAFS spectra. A comparison of the data for the aqueous Ca2+ system with those of the recently reported Zn2+, Fe3+, and Al3+ species showed that many of their structural characteristics correlated well with charge density on the cation. Some very important exceptions were found, which indicated a strong sensitivity of the solvent structure towards the cation′s valence electronic structure. Average dipole moments for the 2nd shell of all cations were suppressed relative to bulk water. 相似文献

The methylation of ethene, propene, and trans‐2‐butene on zeolites H‐ZSM‐58 (DDR), H‐ZSM‐22 (TON), and H‐ZSM‐5 (MFI) is studied to elucidate the particular influence of topology on the kinetics of zeolite‐catalyzed reactions. H‐ZSM‐58 and H‐ZSM‐22 are found to display overall lower methylation rates compared to H‐ZSM‐5 and also different trends in methylation rates with increasing alkene size. These variations may be rationalized based on a decomposition of the free‐energy barriers into enthalpic and entropic contributions, which reveals that the lower methylation rates on H‐ZSM‐58 and H‐ZSM‐22 have virtually opposite reasons. On H‐ZSM‐58, the lower methylation rates are caused by higher enthalpy barriers, owing to inefficient stabilization of the reaction intermediates in the large cage‐like pores. On the other hand, on H‐ZSM‐22, the methylation rates mostly suffer from higher entropy barriers, because excessive entropy losses are incurred inside the narrow‐channel structure. These results show that the kinetics of crucial elementary steps hinge on the balance between proper stabilization of the reaction intermediates inside the zeolite pores and the resulting entropy losses. These fundamental insights into their inner workings are indispensable for ultimately selecting or designing better zeolite catalysts. 相似文献

The cover picture shows an intriguing effect in molecular systems, which is caused by the parity‐violating weak interactions: The chemical shifts of magnetic nuclei are predicted to differ for the two enantiomers of a chiral compound! While in the R enantiomer the nucleus (red) of the yellow center gives rise to the red NMR signal, the corresponding nucleus of the S enantiomer (green) is expected to absorb at a slightly different frequency. The ab initio approach presented by Laubender and Berger on pp. 395–399 allows for a prediction of the resulting parity‐violating line splitting (shown in the black curve) and for the identification of molecular candidates that are well‐suited to the first successful measurement of parity‐violating effects in molecules. 相似文献

A series of ab initio calculations are used to determine the C? H???π and π???π‐stacking interactions of aromatic rings coordinated to transition‐metal centres. Two model complexes have been employed, namely, ferrocene and chromium benzene tricarbonyl. Benchmark data obtained from extrapolation of MP2 energies to the basis set limit, coupled with CCSD(T) correction, indicate that coordinated aromatic rings are slightly weaker hydrogen‐bond acceptors but are significantly stronger hydrogen‐bond donors than uncomplexed rings. It is found that π???π stacking to a second benzene is stronger than in the free benzene dimer, especially in the chromium case. This is assigned, by use of energy partitioning in the local correlation method, to dispersion interactions between metal d and benzene π orbitals. The benchmark data is also used to test the performance of more efficient theoretical methods, indicating that spin‐component scaling of MP2 energies performs well in all cases, whereas various density functionals describe some complexes well, but others with errors of more than 1 kcal mol?1. 相似文献

The kinetics of the oxidation of pyridine, 3‐chloropyridine, 3‐cyanopyridine, 3‐methoxypyridine and 3‐methylpyridine mediated by SO4 < M ‐> radicals are studied by flash photolysis of peroxodisulphate, S2O82?, at pH 2.5 and 9. The absolute rate constants for the reactions of both, the basic and acid forms of the pyridines, are determined and discussed in terms of the Hammett correlation. The monosubstituted pyridines react about 10 times faster with sulphate radicals than their protonated forms, the pyridine ions. The organic intermediates are identified as the corresponding hydroxypyridine radical adducts and their absorption spectra compared with those estimated employing the time‐dependent density functional theory with explicit account for bulk solvent effects. A reaction mechanism which accounts for the observed intermediates and the pyridinols formed as products is proposed. 相似文献

A mechanistic and kinetic study of the OH.‐initiated oxidation of benzaldehyde is carried out using quantum chemical methods and classical transition state theory. We calculate the rate constant for this reaction within the temperature range of 200–350 K at atmospheric pressure. All possible hydrogen abstraction and OH. addition channels are considered and branching ratios are obtained. Tunneling corrections are taken into account for abstraction channels, assuming unsymmetrical Eckart barriers. The aldehydic abstraction is by far the most important reaction channel within the entire range of temperatures studied, especially at room temperature and lower—the temperatures relevant to atmospheric chemistry. The relative importance of all the other possible channels increases slightly with temperature. Branching ratios show that addition at the ring and abstraction of an ortho hydrogen contribute about 1 % each at about 300 K, while the branching ratio for the main reaction decreases from 99 % at 200 K to 93 % at 350 K. The results are compared with available experimental measurements. 相似文献

The Au(I)–Au(I) closed‐shell or aurophilic attraction has been the subject of interest in the experimental and theoretical chemistry fields, due to the intriguing properties associated to it. The presence of phosphorescence in “aurophilic” compounds has been addressed to a wide range of applications, but it has not yet been fully understood. A theoretical study on the electronic and phosphorescent properties of the following series of dinuclear gold complexes has been performed: [Au2(dmpm) (i‐mnt)] ( 1 ), [Au2(μ‐Me‐TU) (μ‐dppm)] ( 2 ), and [Au2(μ‐G)(μ‐dmpe)] ( 3 ). Full geometry optimizations at the second‐order Møller–Plesset perturbation theory (MP2) were carried out for each of the species. These calculations made evident that, at the ground‐state geometry, the Au(I) cations allocated at the center of the ring show a short Au–Au distance below the sum of the van der Waals radii, at the range of the aurophilic attraction. An intermolecular Au(I)–Au(I) closed‐shell attraction for a pair of the systems under study is found. This attraction is comparable to that of the hydrogen bonds. The phosphorescent properties experimentally observed for this series were also characterized through ab initio techniques. The obtained results allow to fit reasonably the excitation energies with the experimental data and to identify a correlation between the strength of the Au(I)–Au(I) interaction and the phosphorescent behavior. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The electrocyclization of heterosubstituted derivatives of (Z)-1,2,4,6-heptatetraene, (2Z)-2,4,5-hexatrien-1-imine and (2Z)-2,4,5-hexatrienal exhibit some features which suggest a pseudopericyclic mechanism. In order to examine this, a comprehensive study including the determination of magnetic properties to estimate aromaticity and an NBO analysis throughout the reaction path was conducted. The cyclization of 5oxo-2,4-pentadienal, a process of unequivocal pseudopericyclic nature, was studied for comparison. The results suggest that, although the lone electron pair on the heteroatom in the heptatetraene derivatives seemingly plays a crucial role in the reaction mechanism, it does not suffice to deprive the reaction from the essential features of a pericyclic disrotatory electrocyclization. 相似文献

The structure and electronic properties of the electronic ground state and the lowest excited singlet state (S1) of 5‐fluoroindole (5FI) were determined by using rotationally resolved spectroscopy of the vibration‐less electronic origin of 5FI. From the parameters of the axis reorientation Hamiltonian, the absolute orientation of the transition dipole moment in the molecular frame was determined and the character of the excited state was identified as Lb. 相似文献
