Si5H3,Si5H6,Si5Li3及Si5Na3原子簇结构的理论研究

利用Gaussian-94计算程序中的B3LYP方法，在6—311 G(2d)6d基组下，对Si5，Si5H3，Si5H6，Si5Li3和Si5Na33原子簇的几何结构进行优化和频率计算．结果表明，Si5原子簇中最稳定的具有D3h对称性的结构中，位于同一平面上的3个Si原子确实具有剩余的成键能力，可以与3个H，Li，Na原子和6个H原子形成稳定的化合物．研究还发现，虽然H，Li和Na都属同一主族，但它们与Si5原子簇中Si原子的键连方式却不同，而且它们的加入，对Si5原子簇的“三角双锥”结构也有不同的影响．     

A quantum chemical study of silsesquioxanes: H8Si8O12, Me8Si8O12, H@Me8Si8O12, He@Me8Si8O 12 + , and He@Me8Si8O12

Quantum chemical PBE0 and B3LYP/cc-pVTZ, PBE0, B3LYP, RHF and MP2/6-31G(d,p) methods are employed to calculate the structural parameters of octa(silsesquioxane) H₈Si₈O₁₂ and octa(methylsilsesquioxane) Me₈Si₈O₁₂. These molecules and complexes H@Me₈Si₈O₁₂, He@Me₈Si₈O ₁₂ ⁺ , and He@Me₈Si₈O₁₂ have highly symmetric (O _h ) equilibrium configurations. With the use of the PBE0 method and a cc-pVTZ multicenter basis set common for the complex and its components coincidence is achieved between the calculated polarizability of a free He atom and the experimental value of 0.21 ų and the polarizability depression of 0.17 ų was found for He@Me₈Si₈O₁₂. In order to avoid the false conclusion about molecular symmetry the calculations of the structure of silsesquioxanes must be performed with sufficiently high accuracy (Int = ultrafine and Opt = tight in the use of the GAUSSIAN program).     

Preparation of alkyl-modified silicon nanosheets by hydrosilylation of layered polysilane (Si6H6)

Alkyl-modified crystalline silicon nanosheets 2 were synthesized and maintained the crystal structure of a Si(111) plane, in which the dangling silicon bond is stabilized by capping with the alkyl group. 2 was characterized using UV-vis, Fourier transform-infrared, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopies; X-ray diffraction; and X-ray absorption near edge structure analysis. A model structure is proposed that has a periodicity through the nanosheet surface.     

Pseudopotential calculations on Si2H6 and Si2H4

Local pseudopotential calculations have been performed for the ground state of disilane as well as for the lowest singlet and triplet states of disilene and silylsilylene. Comparison with all-electron calculations shows good agreement for geometries and relative stabilities.     

Ultraviolet and infrared photodissociation of Si(+)(C6H6)n and Si(+)(C6H6)(n)Ar clusters

Ion-molecule complexes of the form Si(+)(C6H6)n and Si(+)(C6H6)(n)Ar are produced by laser vaporization in a pulsed nozzle cluster source. These clusters are mass-selected and studied with ultraviolet (355 nm) photodissociation and resonance-enhanced infrared photodissociation spectroscopy in the C-H stretch region of benzene. In the UV, Si(+)(C6H6)n clusters (n = 1-5) fragment to produce the Si(+)(C6H6)n mono-ligand species, suggesting that this ion has enhanced relative stability. IR photodissociation of Si(+)(C6H6)n complexes occurs by the elimination of benzene, while Si(+)(C6H6)(n)Ar complexes lose Ar. Resonances reveal C-H vibrational bands in the 2900-3300 cm(-1) region characteristic of the benzene ligand with shifts caused by the silicon cation bonding. The IR spectra confirm that the major component of the Si(+)(C6H6)n ions studied have the pi-complex structure rather than the isomeric insertion products suggested previously.     

MC-SCF and CI calculations on four isomers of Si6H6

The four isomers of Si₆ H₆, hexasilabenzene ( 1 ), hexasilaprismane ( 2 ), hexasila-Dewar benzene ( 3 ), and tris-(disilanediyl) ( 4 ), have been investigated, using highly correlated wavefunctions in conjunction with a local pseudopotential approach. At the Hartree-Fock level 1 (D_6h), 2 (D_3h), and 3 (C_2v) are established as minima by means of the harmonic vibrational frequencies. Inclusion of the most important correlation corrections via CI however, provokes a significant puckering of 1 resulting in a D_3d structure, 7.1 kJ/mol below the planar conformer. The detailed analysis shows unambiguously that the propensity to puckering is due solely to the correlation contributions from the σ framework while correlation of the π electrons is of little relevance. Isomer 2 turns out to be the most stable of the investigated isomers lying 41 kJ/mol below 1 (D_3d). Isomers 3 and 4 are more than 100 kJ/mol higher in energy. The Si? Si bond energies of 1 and 2 are determined as 251 and 176 kJ/mol, respectively.     

A quantum chemical study of the structure of dodecasilsequioxane H12Si12O18

Quantum chemical B3LYP/cc-pVTZ, PBE0/cc-pVTZ, and MP2(full)/6-311G(d,p) methods are used to calculate the structural parameters of dodecasilsequioxane H₁₂Si₁₂O₁₈ and the H₁₂Si₁₂O ₁₈ ⁺ cation. According to DFT/cc-pVTZ calculations the energy of H₁₂Si₁₂O₁₈ (D _6h ) is 1.3–1.7 kcal/mol higher than the energy of H₁₂Si₁₂O₁₈ (D _2d ). A reduction of the basis set results in a greater energy difference of H₁₂Si₁₂O₁₈ isomers. For the cation ² B _2u and ² B ₁ electronic states are obtained, which correspond to symmetric equilibrium structures H₁₂Si₁₂O ₁₈ ⁺ (D _6h ) and (D ₂) respectively. For the He@H₁₂Si₁₂O₁₈ endocomplex the D _2d symmetry is obtained; for He₂@H₁₂Si₁₂O₁₈ the D _2h symmetry; and for H₂@H₁₂Si₁₂O₁₈ the D _6h symmetry.

A Monte Carlo study of isomers and structural evolution in benzene-cyclohexane clusters: (C6H6)(C6H12)n, n=3-7, 12

Monte Carlo simulated annealing strategies, carried out on four different potential energy surfaces, are applied to benzene-cyclohexane clusters, BCn, n=3-7, 12, to identify low-energy isomers and to trace the evolution of structures as a function of cluster size. Initial structures are first heated to ensure randomization, and subsequent annealing yields optimized rigid, low-energy clusters. Five major structural isomers are identified for BC3: one assumes the form of a symmetric, modified sandwich; the remaining four lack general symmetry, assuming distorted tetrahedral arrangements. For BC4 and larger clusters, the number of low-temperature isomers is large. It is, nevertheless, feasible to classify isomers into groups based on structural similarities. The evolution of BCn structures as a function of cluster size is observed to follow one of two primary paths: The first maximizes benzene-cyclohexane interactions and places benzene in or near the BCn cluster center; the competing path maximizes cyclohexane-cyclohexane interactions and distances benzene from the cluster's center of mass. Results for BC3 and BC4 are discussed with reference to experimental results and models previously applied to interpret benzene-argon cluster spectra.     

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.     

Temperature dependence of the ratios of the rate constants of hydroxylation of the cycloalkanes C6H12/C6D12 and C5H10/C6H12 in sulfuric acid

The temperature dependence of the ratios of the rate constants k(C₅H₁₀)/k(C₆H₁₂) and k(C₆H₁₂)/k(C₆D₁₂) for the reaction of the cycloalkanes C₅H₁₀, C₆H₁₂, and C₆D₁₂ with OH⁺ cations in the system (NH₄)₂S₂O₈ (0.1 mol/kg)-H₂SO₄ (94.4 mass %) in the 6–50 °C range has been studied. The activation energies found E(C₆H₁₂) − E(C₅H₁₀) = − 5.3 ± 0.3 and E(C₆D₁₂) − E(C₆H₁₂) = 7.9 ± 0.7 (kJ/mol) permits the comparison of OH⁺ to a group of reagents (NO₊², Pd²⁺, HSO₊³) which interact with the C-H bond via an electrophilic substitution mechanism.
