Ionization efficiencies of C3H6, C4H8, C6H12, C2H6O,and C3H8O isomers

Ionization efficiencies of 14 organic compounds have been measured in the wavelength region from 105 to 134nm using an ionization chamber. The compounds examined are cyclopropane, propylene, l-butene, isobutene, cis-and trans-2-butenes, cyclohexane, 1-hexane, tetramethylethylene, ethyl alcohol, dimethyl ether, n-, and iso-propyl alcohol, and ethyl methyl ether. The ionization efficiencies of cyclopropane and cyclohexane monotonically increase with increasing photon energy, but those for the others show a peak or a shoulder in the wavelength region of the present work.     

[C6H6, C3H7 +]and [C6H7 +, C3H6] ion-neutral complexes intermediate in the reactions of protonated propylbenzenes

From the mass-analysed ion kinetic energy spectra of labelled ions, kinetic energy releases and thermodynamic data, it is proved that protonated n-propylbenzene (1) isomerizes into protonated isopropyl benzene (2). It is also shown that the dissociation of the less energetic metastable ions of (2), leading to [iso-C₃H₇]⁺ and [C₆H₇]⁺ product ions, is preceded by H exchange. This H exchange involves two interconverting ion-neutral complexes [C₆H₆, iso-C₃H₇⁺] (2π) and [C₆H₇⁺, C₃H₆] (2α).     

Contrast of Bonding and Characters for C6, B3N3, C6H6 and B3N3H6 Molecules

Through integrative consideration of NICS, MO, MOC and NBO, we precisely investigated delocalization and bonding characters of C₆, C₆H₆, B₃N₃ and B₃N₃H₆ molecules. Firstly, we originally discovered and testified that C₆ cluster was sp² hybridization. Negative NICS values in 0 and 1 Å indicated that C₆ had δ and Π aromaticity. Secondly, B₃N₃ with sp² hybridization had obvious δ aromaticity. Finally, WBI values approved that there were delocalization in C₆, C₆H₆ and B₃N₃ molecules, but B₃N₃H₆ structure did not have delocalization with the WBI 1.0. Moreover, total WBI values of carbon, boron and nitrogen atoms were four, three and three, respectively. Namely, the electrons of B₃N₃H₆ and B₃N₃ were localized in nitrogen atoms and they did not form delocalized bonding. In a word, bonding characters of carbon, boron and nitrogen atoms were dissimilar although the molecules composed of carbon, boron and nitrogen were regarded as isoelectronic structures.     

Isotropic C6, C8 and C10 interaction coefficients for CH4, C2H6, C3H8, n-C4H10 and cyclo-C3H6

The non-empirical generalized Kirkwood, Unsöld, and the single-Δ Unsöld methods (with double-zeta quality SCF wave-functions) are used to calculate isotropic dispersion (and induction) energy coefficients C_2n, with n ? 5, for interactions involving ground state CH₄, C₂H₆, C₃H₈, n-C₄H₁₀ and cyclo-C₃H₆. Results are also given for the related multipole polarizabilities α_l, multipole sums S₁/(0) and S₁(?1) which are evaluated using sum rules, and the permanent multipole moments. for l = 1 (dipole) to l = 3 (octupole). Estimates of the reliability of the non-empirical methods, for the type of molecules considered, are obtained by a comparison with accurate literature values of α₁S₁(?1) and C₆. This, and the asymptotic properties of the multipolar expansion of the dispersion energy, the use to discuss recommended representation for the isotropic long range interaction energies through R^?10 where R is the intermolecular separation.     

Novel products from C6H5 + C6H6/C6H5 reactions

To date only one product, biphenyl, has been reported to be produced from C(6)H(5) + C(6)H(6)/C(6)H(5) reactions. In this study, we have investigated some unique products of C(6)H(5) + C(6)H(6)/C(6)H(5) reactions via both experimental observation and theoretical modeling. In the experimental study, gas-phase reaction products produced from the pyrolysis of selected aromatics and aromatic/acetylene mixtures were detected by an in situ technique, vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) single photon ionization (SPI) time-of-flight mass spectrometry (TOFMS). The mass spectra revealed a remarkable correlation in mass peaks at m/z = 154 {C(12)H(10) (biphenyl)} and m/z = 152 {C(12)H(8) (?)}. It also demonstrated an unexpected correlation among the HACA (hydrogen abstraction and acetylene addition) products at m/z = 78, 102, 128, 152, and 176. The analysis of formation routes of products suggested the contribution of some other isomers in addition to a well-known candidate, acenaphthylene, in the mass peak at m/z = 152 (C(12)H(8)). Considering the difficulties of identifying the contributing isomers from an observed mass number peak, quantum chemical calculations for the above-mentioned reactions were performed. As a result, cyclopenta[a]indene, as-indacene, s-indacene, biphenylene, acenaphthylene, and naphthalene appeared as novel products, produced from the possible channels of C(6)H(5) + C(6)H(6)/C(6)H(5) reactions rather than from their previously reported formation pathways. The most notable point is the production of acenaphthylene and naphthalene from C(6)H(5) + C(6)H(6)/C(6)H(5) reactions via the PAC (phenyl addition-cyclization) mechanism because, until now, both of them have been thought to be formed via the HACA routes. In this way, this study has paved the way for exploring alternative paths for other inefficient HACA routes using the PAC mechanism.

Scalable Green Synthesis of Robust Ultra-Microporous Hofmann Clathrate Material with Record C3H6 Storage Density for Efficient C3H6/C3H8 Separation

Developing porous materials for C₃H₆/C₃H₈ separation faces the challenge of merging excellent separation performance with high stability and easy scalability of synthesis. Herein, we report a robust Hofmann clathrate material (ZJU-75a), featuring high-density strong binding sites to achieve all the above requirements. ZJU-75a adsorbs large amount of C₃H₆ with a record high storage density of 0.818 g mL⁻¹, and concurrently shows high C₃H₆/C₃H₈ selectivity (54.2) at 296 K and 1 bar. Single-crystal structure analysis unveil that the high-density binding sites in ZJU-75a not only provide much stronger interactions with C₃H₆ but also enable the dense packing of C₃H₆. Breakthrough experiments on gas mixtures afford both high separation factor of 14.7 and large C₃H₆ uptake (2.79 mmol g⁻¹). This material is highly stable and can be easily produced at kilogram-scale using a green synthesis method, making it as a benchmark material to address major challenges for industrial C₃H₆/C₃H₈ separation.     

Total cross sections for electron scattering by polyatomic molecules at 10–1000 eV: C2H2, C2H4, C2H6, C3H6, C3H8 and C4H8

A model complex optical potential (composed of static, exchange, polarization and absorption terms) is employed to calculate the total (elastic and inelastic) electron-atom scattering cross sections from the corresponding atomic wave function at the Hartree-Fock level. The total cross sections (TCS) for electron scattering by their corresponding molecules (C₂H₂, C₂H₄, C₂H₆, C₃H₆, C₃H₈ and C₄H₈) are firstly obtained by the use of the additivity rule over an incident energy range of 10–1000 eV. The qualitative molecular results are compared with experimental data and other calculations wherever available, good agreement is obtained in intermediate-and high-energy region.     

Vibrational spectra of melamine diborate,C3N6H62H3BO3

IR and Raman spectra of melamine diborate have been recorded and analysed. Band assignments are given based on the vibrations of melamine and boric acid molecules. Three sets of frequencies observed for the N-H stretching mode region is ascribed to different types of hydrogen bonds in the amino groups of the triazine ring. Due to the lower symmetry of the melamine and boric acid molecules in the crystal, activation of inactive modes and lifting of the degeneracy of certain vibrational modes are observed. Lower symmetry of the melamine molecule in the crystal has resulted in the decrease of intensity of the Raman active melamine band around 1490 cm(-1). All the internal modes of boric acid molecule were identified. All the ring breathing modes of melamine molecule show frequency shift towards the high wavenumber side. In other words, hydrogen bonding affects the ring breathing modes of melamine.

Association rate constants for reactions between resonance-stabilized radicals: C3H3 + C3H3, C3H3 + C3H5, and C3H5 + C3H5

Reactions between resonance-stabilized radicals play an important role in combustion chemistry. The theoretical prediction of rate coefficients and product distributions for such reactions is complicated by the fact that the initial complex-formation steps and some dissociation steps are barrierless. In this paper direct variable reaction coordinate transition state theory (VRC-TST) is used to predict accurately the association rate constants for the self and cross reactions of propargyl and allyl radicals. For each reaction, a set of multifaceted dividing surfaces is used to account for the multiple possible addition channels. Because of their resonant nature the geometric relaxation of the radicals is important. Here, the effect of this relaxation is explicitly calculated with the UB3LYP/cc-pvdz method for each mutual orientation encountered in the configurational integrals over the transition state dividing surfaces. The final energies are obtained from CASPT2/cc-pvdz calculations with all pi-orbitals in the active space. Evaluations along the minimum energy path suggest that basis set corrections are negligible. The VRC-TST approach was also used to calculate the association rate constant and the corresponding number of states for the C(6)H(5) + H --> C(6)H(6) exit channel of the C(3)H(3) + C(3)H(3) reaction, which is also barrierless. For this reaction, the interaction energies were evaluated with the CASPT2(2e,2o)/cc-pvdz method and a 1-D correction is included on the basis of CAS+1+2+QC/aug-cc-pvtz calculations for the CH(3) + H reference system. For the C(3)H(3) + C(3)H(3) reaction, the VRC-TST results for the energy and angular momentum resolved numbers of states in the entrance channels and in the C(6)H(5) + H exit channel are incorporated in a master equation simulation to determine the temperature and pressure dependence of the phenomenological rate coefficients. The rate constants for the C(3)H(3) + C(3)H(3) and C(3)H(5) + C(3)H(5) self-reactions compare favorably with the available experimental data. To our knowledge there are no experimental rate data for the C(3)H(3) + C(3)H(5) reaction.

Untersuchungen zu Synthese und Reaktionen von Fluorphenylquecksilber-Derivaten mit den Liganden 2-FC6H4, 2,6-F2C6H3 und 2,4,6-F3C6H2

Investigations on Syntheses and Reactions of Fluorophenylmercury Compounds with the Ligands 2-FC₆H₄, 2,6-F₂C₆H₃, and 2,4,6-F₃C₆H₂ 2,6-F₂C₆H₃HgCl and 2,4,6-F₃C₆H₂HgCl are synthesized via the reactions of the corresponding phenylmagnesium compounds and HgCl₂. 2-FC₆H₄HgCl is selectively obtained only in a reaction involving intermediately formed Cd(2-FC₆H₄)₂. The diphenylmercury derivative Hg(2,4,6-F₃C₆H₂)₂ is obtained while stirring a dichloromethane solution of 2,4,6-F₃C₆H₂HgCl for several days. The direct mercuration of 1,3,5-trifluorobenzene with Hg(OCOCF₃)₂ yields, depending on the stoichiometry, 2,4,6-trifluorophenylmercury trifluoroacetate and 1,3-bis(trifluoroacetatomercuri)-2,4,6-trifluorobenzene which is converted into the corresponding chloromercuri derivative by treatment with hydrochloric acid in CH₃CN. As a product of the reaction of 1,3,5-trifluorobenzene and HgO in CH₃COOH only 2,4,6-trifluorophenylmercury acetate is isolated although spectroscopic evidence has been found for double and triple mercurated derivatives. All compounds are characterized by elemental analyses, nmr and mass spectra. The reaction of Hg(2,4,6-F₃C₆H₂)Cl and Cd(CF₃)₂ · 2 CH₃CN gives Hg(2,4,6-F₃C₆H₂)CF₃ which slowly dismutates in CH₂Cl₂ solution into Hg(2,4,6-F₃C₆H₂)₂ and Hg(CF₃)₂. The ligand exchange of Hg(2,4,6-F₃C₆H₂)₂ and TeCl₄ selectively gives Te(2,4,6-F₃C₆H₂)₂Cl₂ and Hg(2,4,6-F₃C₆H₂)Cl. Transmetalations of Hg(2,4,6-F₃C₆H₂)₂ and gallium or tin give NMR spectroscopic evidence for the new derivates Ga(2,4,6-F₃C₆H₂)₃ and Sn(2,4,6-F₃C₆H₂)₄.     

Cluster-enhanced X-O2 photochemistry (X=CH3I, C3H6, C6H12, and Xe)

The effect of a local environment on the photodissociation of molecular oxygen is investigated in the van der Waals complex X-O(2) (X=CH(3)I, C(3)H(6), C(6)H(12), and Xe). A single laser operating at wavelengths around 226 nm is used for both photodissociation of the van der Waals complex and simultaneous detection of the O((3)P(J),J=2,1,0) atom photoproduct via (2+1) resonance enhanced multiphoton ionization. The kinetic energy distribution (KED) and angular anisotropy of the product O atom recoil in this dissociation are measured using the velocity map imaging technique configured for either full ("crush") or partial ("slice") detection of the three-dimensional O((3)P(J)) atom product Newton sphere. The measured KED and angular anisotropy reveal a distinct difference in the mechanism of O atom generation from an X-O(2) complex compared to a free O(2) molecule. The authors identify two one-photon excitation pathways, the relative importance of which depends on IPx, the ionization potential of the X partner. One pathway, observed for all complexes independent of IPx, involves a direct transition to the perturbed covalent state X-O(2)(A'(3)Delta(u)) with excitation localized on the O(2) subunit. The predominantly perpendicular character of this channel relative to the laser polarization detection, together with data on the structure of the complex, allows us to confirm that X partner induced admixing of an X(+)-O(2) (-) charge transfer (CT) state is the perturbing factor resulting in the well-known enhancement of photoabsorption within the Herzberg continuum of molecular oxygen. The second excitation pathway, observed for X-O(2) complexes with X=CH(3)I and C(3)H(6), involves direct excitation into the (3)(X(+)-O(2) (-)) CT state of the complex. The subsequent photodissociation of this CT state by the same laser pulse gives rise to the superoxide anion O(2) (-), which then photodissociates, providing fast (0.69 eV) O atoms with a parallel image pattern. Products from the photodissociation of singlet oxygen O(2)(b (1)Sigma(g) (+)) are also observed when the CH(3)I-O(2) complex was irradiated. Potential energy surfaces (PES) for the ground and relevant excited states of the X-O(2) complex have been constructed for CH(3)I-O(2) using the results of CASSCF calculations for the ground and CT states of the complex as well as literature data on PES of the subunits. These model potential energy surfaces allowed us to interpret all of the observed O((3)P(J)) atom production channels.
