Cu-[M’]MOR和Ag-[M’]MOR (M’=B,Al, Ga,Fe)的酸性

采用Dmol3程序中基于密度泛函理论(DFT)的广义梯度方法(GGA)和BLYP方法以及DND基组, 研究了丝光沸石H-[M']MOR、Cu-[M']MOR和Ag-[M']MOR(M'=B, Al, Ga, Fe)结构及其对NH3分子的吸附, 获得了吸附平衡构型和吸附能. NH3分子在H-[M']MOR中的吸附主要是通过NH3分子中氮原子上的孤对电子与质子酸位作用, NH3分子在H-[Al]MOR、H-[Ga]MOR和H-[Fe]MOR上发生化学吸附, 而在H-[B]MOR上发生物理吸附, 这与文献结果相符. NH3分子与Cu-[M']MOR 和Ag-[M']MOR分子筛之间主要通过氮上的孤对电子和平衡离子(Cu+和Ag+)的s空轨道间配位作用而发生化学吸附. 吸附能数据表明, 在H-[M']MOR、Cu-[M']MOR 和Ag-[M']MOR中, A1原子进入骨架导致H-[A1]MOR、Cu-[A1]MOR和Ag-[A1]MOR的酸强度最强; 对于同一种原子取代的丝光沸石, 其酸强度次序为: Cu-[M']MOR > Ag-[M']MOR > H-[M']MOR. 此外, 还对吸附前后的沸石中平衡离子(H+、Cu+和Ag+)及NH3分子的Mulliken电荷集居数作了研究和分析.

Through the oxidation-reduction combination procedure, the neutral tri-substituted {2Fe3S} complex 2 was synthesized by replacing the CO ligand in 1 with phosphine. This substitution leads to the Fe-Fe bonds in 1 and 2 with large Lewis basicity difference, i.e. △pK_a^MeCN~10.     

理想与还原Fe2O3[001]表面上汞吸附协同催化CO分解作用

煤化学链燃烧必然释放汞,汞与载氧体表面相互作用,影响表界面的氧化还原反应。本文采用密度泛函理论计算,研究汞（Hg⁰）在理想表面（Fe₂O₃[001]）和一系列被还原表面（Fe₂O_2.75、Fe₂O_2.5、Fe₂O_2.25、Fe₂O_1.625、Fe₂O_0.875、Fe₂O_0.375和Fe）的吸附,以及Hg⁰对Fe₂O_1.625、Fe₂O_0.875、Fe₂O_0.375和Fe等表面催化CO分解反应的协同作用机理。Hg⁰物理吸附在理想Fe₂O₃[001]表面。随着Fe₂O₃[001]表面不断被还原,Hg⁰发生化学吸附。Hg⁰吸附降低了CO与Fe₂O₃、Fe₂O_2.75、Fe₂O_2.5和Fe₂O_2.25等表面之间的相互作用,抑制O传递氧化CO为CO₂的反应;载氧体进一步还原过程中,Hg⁰吸附促进了CO与Fe₂O_1.625、Fe₂O_0.875、Fe₂O_0.375及Fe等表面之间的相互作用,进而促进了表面对CO的催化分解反应,加速了载氧体表面的积碳,降低了化学链燃烧效率。因此,合理控制载氧体的还原程度既可以减弱Hg⁰的吸附,也可以抑制积碳的形成,这对化学链燃烧的操作优化至关重要。     

Über dimere dimethylmetall-bis(trimethylgermyl)amide des aluminiums, galliums und indiums

The dimethylmetal bis(trimethylgermyl)amides of Al, Ga, and In have been prepared from Li[N(GeMe₃)₂] and Me₂MCl (Me = CH₃, M = Al, Ga) or Me₂MCN (M = Ga, In) in inert solvents. The NMR (¹H, ¹³C) and vibrational spectra (IR and Raman) of these dimeric compounds have been assigned and discussed. According to the X-ray structure determination [Me₂InN(GeMe₃)₂]₂ crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c (Z = 4, R = 0.032) and is isomorphous with the bis(trimethylsilyl) homologue.     

密度泛函理论研究Al在丝光沸石骨架中的取代位置和NH3的吸附

采用色散校正密度泛函方法（DFT-D2）计算了Al同晶取代进入H-[Al]MOR丝光沸石骨架中可能的位置及其对NH₃分子吸附表征Brönsted酸性。热力学上,Al优先取代位是T2O5位,接着是T4O2、T1O7和T3O1位,能量差仅在0.03~0.07 eV,表明Al可能分布在四种非等价晶体T位。同时,电荷平衡质子的位置影响Al取代位的稳定性,数据表明电荷平衡质子与O5位结合的可能性最大。另外,用DFT和 DFT-D2方法计算了NH₃分子在每一个Al取代的T位的吸附能,通过比较,DFT低估了NH₃吸附能0.41 eV,表明色散校正DFT-D2方法对于NH₃吸附是很有必要的,T2O5位的Brönsted酸性最强。

Targeting intermediates of [FeFe]-hydrogenase by CO and CN vibrational signatures

In this work, we employ density functional theory to assign vibrational signatures of [FeFe]-hydrogenase intermediates to molecular structures. For this purpose, we perform an exhaustive analysis of structures and harmonic vibrations of a series of CN and CO containing model clusters of the [FeFe]-hydrogenase enzyme active site considering also different charges, counterions, and solvents. The pure density functional BP86 in combination with a triple-ζ polarized basis set produce reliable molecular structures as well as harmonic vibrations. Calculated CN and CO stretching vibrations are analyzed separately. Scaled vibrational frequencies are then applied to assign intermediates in [FeFe]-hydrogenase's reaction cycle. The results nicely complement the previous studies of Darensbourg and Hall, and Zilberman et al. The infrared spectrum of the H(ox) form is in very good agreement with the calculated spectrum of the Fe(I)Fe(II) model complex featuring a free coordination site at the distal Fe atom, as well as, with the calculated spectra of the complexes in which H(2) or H(2)O are coordinated at this site. The spectrum of H(red) measured from Desulfovibrio desulfuricans is compatible with a mixture of a Fe(I)Fe(I) species with all terminal COs, and a Fe(I)Fe(I) species with protonated dtma ligand, while the spectrum of H(red) recently measured from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is compatible with a mixture of a Fe(I)Fe(I) species with a bridged CO, and a Fe(II)Fe(II) species with a terminal hydride bound to the Fe atom.     

Lead hydro sodalite [Pb2(OH)(H2O)3]2[Al3Si3O12]2: synthesis and structure determination by combining X-ray rietveld refinement, 1H MAS NMR FTIR and XANES spectroscopy

Ion exchange of the sodium hydro sodalites [Na3(H2O)4]2-[Al3Si3O12]2 [Na4(H3O2)]2[Al3Si3O12]2 and [Na4(OH)]2[Al3Si3O12]2 with aqueous Pb(NO3)2 solutions yielded, whichever reactant sodalite phase was used, the same lead hydro sodalite, [Pb2(OH)-(H2O)3]2[Al3Si3O12]2. Thus, in the case of the non-basic reactant [Na3(H2O)4]2-[Al3Si3O12]2 an overexchange occurs with respect to the number of nonframework cationic charges. Rietveld structure refinement of the lead hydro sodalite based on powder X-ray diffraction data (cubic, a = 9.070 A, room temperature, space group P43n) revealed that the two lead cations within each polyhedral sodalite cage form an orientationally disordered dinuclear [Pb2(micro-OH)(micro-H2O)(H2O)2]3+ complex. Due to additional lead framework oxygen bonds the coordination environment of each metal cation (CN 3+3) is approximately spherical, and clearly the lead 6s electron lone pair is stereochemically inactive. This is also suggested by the absence of a small peak at 13.025 keV, attributed in other Pb2+-O compounds to an electronic 2p-6s transition, in the PbL3 edge XANES spectrum. 1H MAS NMR and FTIR spectra show that the hydrogen atoms of the aqua hydroxo complex (which could not be determined in the Rietveld analysis) are involved in hydrogen bonds of various strengths.

Al在熔体和玻璃结构中主要以[AlO₄]四面体的形式存在, 其占比高达71.1%, 相较于其晶态, [AlO₅]的占比也增加至28.6%. 基于构建的熔体团簇模型的量子化学从头算表明, [AlO₄]构型倾向于以Q₃, Q₄连接方式为主的层状和架状结构, 而[AlO₅]构型则倾向于单体形式.     

新型磷-钒-氧层状化合物[H2en]2[H3O]6[Co(H2O)2(VO)8(OH)4(PO4)8]的水热合成与晶体结构

金属磷酸盐材料在吸附、离子交换、离子传导和催化剂方面有潜在的应用前景[1～5]. 近年来, 通过水热反应合成了一些A-V-P-O化合物. 在这些化合物中, A一般为碱金属或有机阳离子, 如层状结构的[H2N(C4H8)2NH2][(VO)4(OH)4(PO4)2][6] 和[H2N(C2H4)3NH2][(VO)8(HPO4)3(PO4)4*(OH)2]*2H2O[6], 一维链状结构的 [H2NCH2CH2NH3(VO)(PO4)][7], 手性双螺旋结构的 [(CH3)2NH2]K4[(VO)10(H2O)2(OH)4(PO4)7]*H2O[8]以及具有三维骨架结构的化合物 [H3N(CH2)3NH3K(VO)3(PO4)3][9], [H3N(CH2)3NH3]2[V(H2O)2(VO)6(OH)2(HPO4)3(PO4)5]*3H2O[10]和[H3N(CH2)2NH3][(VO)3(H2O)2(PO4)2(HPO4)4][11].     

Structure and vibrational dynamics of model compounds of the [FeFe]-hydrogenase enzyme system via ultrafast two-dimensional infrared spectroscopy

Ultrafast two-dimensional infrared (2D) spectroscopy has been applied to study the structure and vibrational dynamics of (mu-S(CH2)3S)Fe2(CO)6, a model compound of the active site of the [FeFe]-hydrogenase enzyme system. Comparison of 2D-IR spectra of (mu-S(CH2)3S)Fe2(CO)6 with density functional theory calculations has determined that the solution-phase structure of this molecule is similar to that observed in the crystalline phase and in good agreement with gas-phase simulations. In addition, vibrational coupling and rapid (<5 ps) solvent-mediated equilibration of energy between vibrationally excited states of the carbonyl ligands of the di-iron-based active site model are observed prior to slower (approximately 100 ps) relaxation to the ground state. These dynamics are shown to be solvent-dependent and form a basis for the future determination of the vibrational interactions between active site and protein.     

碱性电解液中K3[Fe(CN)6]在锌阳极上的自发还原和吸附延长锌镍电池的循环寿命

采用K₃[Fe(CN)₆]作为锌镍电池的电解液添加剂,克服了锌阳极的变形。此外,通过一系列实验设计和表征,探索了电解液中金属锌与K₃[Fe(CN)₆]的反应机理。通过XRD (X-ray diffraction)和XPS (X-ray photo-electron spectroscopy)测试,我们发现金属锌在KOH水溶液中能够与K₃[Fe(CN)₆]反应,将[Fe(CN)₆]^3–还原为[Fe(CN)₆]⁴⁻。添加K₃[Fe(CN)₆]的锌镍电池实现了更长的循环寿命,比不添加K₃[Fe(CN)₆]的锌镍电池长3倍以上。在相同循环次数下,改性电解质中锌阳极循环不仅形状变化较小,而且没有出现“死”锌现象,电极添加剂和粘结剂也没有发生偏析。此外,不同于一般的有机添加剂,K₃[Fe(CN)₆]的加入不仅不会增大电极的极化,还能够提高锌镍电池的放电容量和倍率性能。因此,考虑到这一改性策略有着较高的可行性和较低的成本,K₃[Fe(CN)₆]添加剂在锌镍电池的实际应用中具有极大的推广潜力。     

碱性电解液中K3[Fe(CN)6]在锌阳极上的自发还原和吸附延长锌镍电池的循环寿命

In view of the continuously worsening environmental problems, fossil fuels will not be able to support the development of human life in the future. Hence, it is of great importance to work on the efficient utilization of cleaner energy resources. In this case, cheap, reliable, and eco-friendly grid-scale energy storage systems can play a key role in optimizing our energy usage. When compared with lithium-ion and lead-acid batteries, the excellent safety, environmental benignity, and low toxicity of aqueous Zn-based batteries make them competitive in the context of large-scale energy storage. Among the various Zn-based batteries, due to a high open-circuit voltage and excellent rate performance, Zn-Ni batteries have great potential in practical applications. Nevertheless, the intrinsic obstacles associated with the use of Zn anodes in alkaline electrolytes, such as dendrite, shape change, passivation, and corrosion, limit their commercial application. Hence, we have focused our current efforts on inhibiting the corrosion and dissolution of Zn species. Based on a previous study from our research group, the failure of the Zn-Ni battery was caused by the shape change of the Zn anode, which stemmed from the dissolution of Zn and uneven current distribution on the anode. Therefore, for the current study, we selected K₃[Fe(CN)₆] as an electrolyte additive that would help minimize the corrosion and dissolution of the Zn anode. In the alkaline electrolyte, [Fe(CN)₆]^3– was reduced to [Fe(CN)₆]^4– by the metallic Zn present in the Zn-Ni battery. Owing to its low solubility in the electrolyte, K₄[Fe(CN)₆] adhered to the active Zn anode, thereby inhibiting the aggregation and corrosion of Zn. Ultimately, the shape change of the anode was effectively eliminated, which improved the cycling life of the Zn-Ni battery by more than three times (i.e., from 124 cycles to more than 423 cycles). As for capacity retention, the Zn-Ni battery with the pristine electrolyte only exhibited 40% capacity retention after 85 cycles, while the Zn-Ni battery with the modified electrolyte (i.e., containing K₃[Fe(CN)₆]) showed 72% capacity retention. Moreover, unlike conventional organic additives that increase electrode polarization, the addition of K₃[Fe(CN)₆] not only significantly reduced the charge-transfer resistance in a simplified three-electrode system, but also improved the discharge capacity and rate performance of the Zn-Ni battery. Importantly, considering that this strategy was easy to achieve and minimized additional costs, K₃[Fe(CN)₆], as an electrolyte additive with almost no negative effect, has tremendous potential in commercial Zn-Ni batteries.     

Fe元素及点缺陷对焦炭表面NH_3异相吸附的影响:密度泛函理论研究

采用密度泛函理论,并使用具有周期性边界条件的石墨烯模型近似模拟焦炭表面,研究了Fe原子修饰及点缺陷对NH_3在焦炭表面异相吸附的影响。计算结果表明,NH_3分子在点缺陷石墨烯表面的吸附属于物理吸附,结合能为-0.381 e V;NH_3分子吸附在Fe修饰的完整石墨烯表面属于化学吸附,吸附能为-1.442 eV; Fe原子修饰及点缺陷单独存在下NH_3的吸附能均大于NH_3在完整石墨烯表面的吸附(吸附能为-0.190 eV)。此外,Fe原子修饰与点缺陷共存对NH_3的吸附具有协同作用,结合能达到-3.538 eV,明显大于两者单独存在下NH_3的吸附能之和,综合分析Mulliken布居数与态密度,Fe原子与石墨烯表面、NH_3分子之间有更多地电荷转移,可以解释两者共存对NH_3吸附协同促进的原因。     

Syntheses of gold-manganese and gold-rhenium clusters, [(Ph3PAu)3M(CO)4] and [(Ph3PAu)4M(CO)4] (M = Mn, Re), and the crystal structure of [(Ph3PAu)4Mn(CO)4]BF4

The specific additions of one, three or four Ph₃PAu groups to [M(CO)₅]⁻ (M=Mn, Re) are described. Thus [M(CO)₅] ⁻ in THF reacts with [(Ph₃PAu)₃O]BF₄ to give [(Ph₃PAu)₄Mn(CO)₄]BF₄. An X-ray crystal structure of the M = Mn example shows the cation to have a trigonal bipyramidal Au₄Mn core with the Mn in an equatorial site. The previously known neutral (Ph₃PAu)₃M(CO)₄ clusters are formed by addition of two Ph₃PAu groups, using the mixed reagent [(Ph₃PAu) ₃O]BF₄/[ppn][Co(CO)₄], to Ph₃PAuM(CO)₅, which itself is readily prepared from [M(CO)₅]⁻ and Ph₃PAuCl.     

Crosslinking Reaction in the Formation of Porous Clays

Clay minerals are a class of hydrous layer aluminosilicates of the so-called phyllosilicate^[1] family made up of two basic types of layers, the SiO₄ tetrahedral sheet and the Al₂(OH)₆[or Mg₃(OH)₆] octahedral sheet, many of which posses interlayer cations capable of exchanging reaction with other cations. The preparation of porous clays are based on this reactivity of exchangeable interlayer cations by using the intercalation of polycations such as Al₁₃⁷⁺ oligomers^[2] into the galleries of clay minerals to form a microporous materials^[3] Here we reported a study on the interlayered crosslinking of a 2:1 type montmorillonites with a hydrolysed polycations Al in the formation of porous clays. Na-montmorillonite gel (Na-mont, particle size<2 μ) were purified by using sedimentation of Na-bentonite fines (400 mesh, Zhejiang, China) and subsequent extensively washing to remove any soluble Na⁺. Hydrolysed polycations Al was prepared by NaOH hydrolysis of AlCl₃ solutions in a condition^[2] of OH/Al=2.0 and then aging at 70-90℃ for 4 h by the following process^[3].     

Unexpected Chemisorption State of CO2 on the Si(100)-2×1 Surface Predicted by Theory

Li the past decade, the reactivity of carbon containing confounds with single crystal silicon surfaces has received extensive attention from both experimental and theoretical sides owing to its compact relevance to the growth of silicon carbide and diamond films. While considerable interest has been focused on the adsorptions of alkenes, alkanes and some other small organic molecules^[1], very few experiments^[2,3] can be found in the literature regarding the adsorption of CO₂,a greenhouse gas, on Si surfaces. We report herein the results of our recent theoretical study concerning CO₂ adsorption on the reconstructed Si(100)-2×l surface. The methods employed in our calculations are the hybrid density functional B3LYP method and a two-layer ONIOM (CCSD(T):B3LYP) approach^[4].
