Theoretical investigation of the transition states leading to HCI elimination in 2-chloropropene

This paper describes ab initio electronic structure calculations on the planar transition states of 2-chloropropene leading to HCI elimination in the ground electronic state to form either propyne or allene as the cofragment. The calculations provide optimized geometries of the transition states for these two reaction channels, together with vibrational frequencies, barrier heights, and reaction endothermicities. The calculated barrier heights for the two distinct four-centre HCI elimination transition states, one leading to HCI and propyne and the other leading to HCI and allene, are 72.5kcalmol^?1 (77.8kcalmol^?1 without zero-point correction) and 73.2kcalmol^?1 (78.7kcalmol^?1) at the MP2/6-311G(d, p) level, 71.Okcalmol^?1 (76.3kcalmol^?1) and 70.5kcalmol^?1 (76.0kcalmol^?1) at the QCISD(T)/6-311 +G(d, p)//MP2/6-311G(d, p) level, and 66.9kcalmol^?1 (71.7kcalmol^?1) and 67.3kcalmol^?1 (72.1kcalmol¹) at the G3//B3LYP level of theory. Calculated harmonic vibrational frequencies at the B3LYP/6-31G(d) level along with transition state barrier heights from the G3//B3LYP level of theory are used to obtain RRKM reaction rate constants for each transition state, which determine the branching ratio between the two HCI elimination channels. Even at internal energies well above both HCI elimination barriers, the HCI elimination leading to propyne is strongly favoured. The smaller rate constant for the HCI elimination leading to allene can be attributed to the strong hindrance of the methyl rotor in the corresponding transition state.

Theoretical study of the Ru + CH3F reaction

CASSCF-MRMP2 calculations have been performed to analyse the reaction of fluoromethane with a bare ruthenium atom. Potential energy curves emerging from the ground state and the first excited state of the reactants, Ru(⁵F, ³F;d⁷s¹) + CH₃F, were calculated for representative electronic states associated with different approaching modes of the fragments. Whereas no favourable channels correlating with the ground state asymptote were detected for the insertion of the ruthenium atom into the C–H bond of the methyl fluoride molecule, the oxidative addition of the C–F bond of this molecule to the metal atom along the reaction path evolving from the ground state of the fragments leads to the stable inserted product CH₃–Ru–F. Although forming less stable products, insertion of ruthenium into the C–H and C–F bonds of the fluorocarbon molecule can occur through electronic states which emerge from the excited triplet state asymptote.     

An experimental study on the formation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in laminar coflow non-premixed methane/air flames doped with four isomeric butanols

Experimental measurements were conducted for temperatures and mole fractions of C1–C16 combustion intermediates in laminar coflow non-premixed methane/air flames doped with 3.9% (in volume) 1-butanol, 2-butanol, iso-butanol and tert-butanol, respectively. Synchrotron vacuum ultraviolet photoionization mass spectrometry (SVUV-PIMS) technique was utilized in the measurements of species mole fractions. The results show that the variant molecular structures of butyl alcohols have led to different efficiencies in the formation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) that may cause the variations in sooting tendency. Detailed species information suggests that the presence of allene and propyne promotes benzene formation through the C₃H₃ + C₃H₄ reactions and consequently PAH formation through the additions of C2 and C3 species to benzyl or phenyl radicals. As a matter of fact, PAHs formed from the 1-butanol doped flame are the lowest among the four investigated flames, because 1-butanol mainly decomposes to ethylene and oxygenates rather than C3 hydrocarbon species. Meanwhile, the tert-butanol doped flame generates the largest quantities of allene and propyne among the four flames and therefore is the sootiest one.     

Shock tube and modeling study of isobutene pyrolysis and oxidation

Pyrolysis and oxidation of isobutene were studied behind reflected shock waves in the temperature range 1000-1800 K at total pressures between 1.0 and 2.7 atm. The study was carried out using following method: (1) a single-pulse technique for product yields, (2) time-resolved IR-laser absorption at 3.39 μm for isobutene decay and formation rates of compounds which contain C-H bond, (3) time-resolved IR emission at 4.24 μm for CO₂ formation rate, and (4) time-resolved UV absorption at 306.7 nm for OH radical formation rate. The pyrolysis and oxidation of isobutene were modeled using a reaction mechanism including the sub-mechanisms for methane, acetylene, ethylene, ethane, formaldehyde, allene, propyne, propene, and ketene oxidation. The reaction mechanism used in the present study could reproduce all experimental results.     

Surface recombination probabilities of H on stainless steel, a-Si:H and oxidized silicon determined by threshold ionization mass spectrometry in H2 RF discharges

H atom densities are measured by threshold ionization mass spectrometry in a H₂ parallel-plate RF discharge. Variations of H density near the surface in steady-state discharge conditions reveal different surface loss probabilities γ on stainless steel, hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) and oxidized silicon. Absolute γ values are obtained from time-resolved H density measurements in afterglow. The etching probability of Si per H atom incident on a-Si:H is also derived by monitoring SiH₄ partial pressure and SiH(A²Δ) optical emission.

Resonance enhanced multiphoton ionisation (REMPI) detection of Cl(2Pj) atom in the photodissociation of halogenated pyrimidines at 235 nm: role of triplet states

ABSTRACT

The dynamics of chlorine atom (²P_j) formation in the photodissociation process of halogen substituted pyrimidines, namely, 2,4,6-trichloropyrimidine and 5-chloro-2,4,6-trifluoropyrimidine have been studied around 235?nm using Resonance Enhanced Multiphoton Ionisation Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry technique. For the chlorine atom dissociation channel, we have determined the translational energy distribution, the recoil anisotropy parameter, β, and the spin–orbit branching ratio. In both the molecules, the TOF profiles for Cl (²P_3/2) and Cl* (²P_1/2) are found to be independent of laser polarisation suggesting a zero value for β, within the experimental uncertainties. For 2,4,6-trichloropyrimidine, the average translational energies for Cl and Cl* elimination channels are determined to be 6.0?±?1.2 and 7.0?±?1.5 kcal/mol, respectively. Similarly, for 5-chloro-2,4,6-trifluoropyrimidine, the average translational energies for Cl and Cl* elimination channels are determined to be 6.5?±?1.2 and 7.9?±?1.6 kcal/mol, respectively. Computational calculations are performed to generate the potential energy curves along the dissociating C-Cl bond using equation of motion coupled cluster with single and double excitations (EOM-CCSD) method. Computational studies suggest the role of triplet states in the photodissociation process forming the Cl atom.     

Theoretical study on the reactions of CH3NHNH2 with ground state O(3P) atom and excited state O(1D) atom

The reaction mechanisms of methylhydrazine (CH₃NHNH₂) with O(³P) and O(¹D) atoms have been explored theoretically at the MPW1K/6-311+G(d,p), MP2/6-311+G(d,p), MCG3-MPWPW91 (single-point), and CCSD(T)/cc-pVTZ (single-point) levels. The triplet potential energy surface for the reaction of CH₃NHNH₂ with O(³P) includes seven stable isomers and eight transition states. When the O(³P) atom approaches CH₃NHNH₂, the heavy atoms, namely N and C atoms, are the favourable combining points. O(³P) atom attacking the middle-N atom in CH₃NHNH₂ results in the formation of an energy-rich isomer (CH₃NHONH₂) followed by migration of O(³P) atom from middle-N atom to middle-H atom leading to the product P6 (CH₃NNH₂+OH), which is one of the most favourable routes. The estimated major product CH₃NNH₂ is consistent with the experimental measurements. Reaction of O(¹D) + CH₃NHNH₂ presents different features as compared with O(³P) + CH₃NHNH₂. O(¹D) atom will first insert into C–H2, N1–H4, and N2–H5 bonds barrierlessly to form the three adducts, respectively. There are two most favourable paths for O(¹D) + CH₃NHNH₂. One is that the C–N bond cleavage accompanied by a concerted H shift from O atom to N atom (mid-N) leads to the product P_I (CH₂O + NH₂NH₂), and the other is that the N–N bond rupture along with a concerted H shift from O to N (end-N) forms P_IV (CH₃NH₂ + HNO). The similarities and discrepancies between two reactions are discussed.     

Three-body dissociation dynamics of the low-lying Rydberg states of H3 and D3

The dynamics of the three-body dissociative charge exchange of fast (12 keV) H+3 and D+3 with Cs have been studied using multiparticle translational spectroscopy. The observed partitioning of product momenta was found to be state-specific and yields insights into the nuclear motion during dissociation for the three lowest-lying 2s 2A'1, 2p 2A'2, and 3p 2E' metastable Rydberg states of H3 and the 2s 2A'1 and 2p 2A'2 states for D3. These results provide direct empirical information on the nonadiabatic couplings that govern the three-body dissociation of the lowest-lying Rydberg states of H3 and D3.     

Theoretical determination of K X-ray transition energy and probability values for highly charged ions of lanthanum and cerium

The interaction between positronium and a helium atom is studied using the 5-body classical trajectory Monte Carlo method. We present the total cross sections for the dominant channels, namely for single ionization of the target, and ionization of the projectile, resulting from pure ionization and also from electron transfer (capture or loss) processes for 1–5.7 a.u. incident velocities of the positronium atom. Our results were compared with the calculated data using hydrogen projectiles having the same velocities as well as with the experimental data in collisions between H and He [R.D. DuBois, Á. Kövér, Phys. Rev. A 40, 3605 (1989)]. We analyze the similarities and deviations for ionization of helium atoms by positronium and hydrogen projectile impact.

Interactions of incident H atoms with metal surfaces

Atomic hydrogen is a highly reactive species of interest because of its role in a wide range of applications and technologies. Knowledge about the interactions of incident H atoms on metal surfaces is important for our understanding of many processes such as those occurring in plasma-enhanced catalysis and nuclear fusion in tokamak reactors. Herein we review some of the numerous experimental surface science studies that have focused on the interactions of H atoms that are incident on low-Miller index metal single-crystal surfaces. We briefly summarize the different incident H atom reaction mechanisms and several of the available methods to create H atoms in UHV environments before addressing the key thermodynamic and kinetic data available on metal and modified metal surfaces. Generally, H atoms are very reactive and exhibit high sticking coefficients even on metals where H₂ molecules do not dissociate under UHV conditions. This reactivity is often reduced by adsorbates on the surface, which also create new reaction pathways. Abstraction of surface-bound D(H) adatoms by incident H(D) atoms often occurs by an Eley-Rideal mechanism, while a hot atom mechanism produces structural effects in the abstraction rates and forms homonuclear products. Additionally, incident H atoms can often induce surface reconstructions and populate subsurface and bulk absorption sites. The absorbed H atoms recombine to desorb H₂ at lower temperature and can also exhibit higher subsequent reactivity with adsorbates than surface-bound H adatoms. Incident H atoms, either directly or via sorbed hydrogen species, hydrogenate adsorbed hydrocarbons, sulfur, alkali metals, oxygen, halogens, and other adatoms and small molecules. Thus, H atoms from the gas phase incident on surfaces and adsorbed layers create new reaction channels and products beyond those found from interactions of H₂ molecules. Detailed aspects of the dynamics and energy transfer associated with these interactions and the important applications of hydrogen in plasma processing of semiconductors are beyond the scope of this review.     

Quantum stereodynamics study for the reaction F + HD

This paper studies the quantum stereodynamics of the F + HD(υ = 0, j = 0) → HD + F/HF + D reaction at the collision energies of 0.52 and 0.87~kcal/mol. The quantum scattering calculations, based on Stark-Werner potential energy surfaces, show that the differential cross sections for the HF(υ' = 2) + D and DF(υ' = 3) + H channels are consistent with the recent theoretical results. Furthermore, the product rotational angular momentum orientation and alignment have been determined for some selected rovibrational states of the HF + D and DF + H channels.

The characteristics of O＋HD （v = 0, j = 0） reaction dynamics

The analytical potential energy function of HDO is constructed at first using the many-body expansion method.The reaction dynamics of O+HD(v = 0,j = 0) in five product channels are all studied by quasi-classical trajectory(QCT) method.The results show that the long-lived complex compound HDO is the dominant product at low collision energy.With increasing collision energy,O+HD → OH+D and O+HD → OD+H exchange reactions will occur with remarkable characteristics,such as near threshold energies,different reaction probabilities,and different reaction cross sections,implying the isotopic effect between H and D.With further increasing collision energy(e.g.,up to 502.08 kJ/mol),O+HD → O+H+D will occur and induce the complete dissociation into single O,H,and D atoms.
