Ab initio MD simulations of a prototype of methyl chloride hydrolysis with explicit consideration of three water molecules: a comparison of MD trajectories with the IRC path

Ab initio molecular dynamics simulations at the Hartree-Fock/6-31G level of theory are performed on methyl chloride hydrolysis with explicit consideration of one solute and two solvent water molecules at a temperature of 298 K. The reaction involves the formation of a reactant complex and the energy surface to the transition state is found to be simple. Two types of trajectories toward the product are observed. In the first type, the system reaches an intermediate complex (complex-P1) region after two nearly concerted proton transfers involving the attacking water molecule and the solvent water molecules. These trajectories resemble the intrinsic reaction coordinate trajectory. The thermal motion of the atoms leads the system to another intermediate complex (complex-P2) region. A second type of trajectory is found in which the system reaches the complex-P2 region directly after the proton transfers. In both of these forward trajectories, back proton transfers lead the system to a final complex-F region which resembles protonated methanol.

酸性聚离子液体溶胀诱导自组装形成类蜂窝状固体酸催化剂及其高效催化水解反应

酸催化反应在化学工业中占据着十分重要的地位.传统的液体酸催化剂催化性能优异,但面临着能耗高,腐蚀设备和环境污染严重等问题.相比于传统的液体酸催化剂,固体酸催化剂,如分子筛和磺酸树脂等大大缓解了经济和环境方面的问题,但也存在着催化活性差和易失活等缺陷.酸性聚离子液体因其高密度的反应活性位点,可设计调变的结构和酸性以及可循环利用等特性而成为一种新型的高效多相酸催化剂,引起了广泛的研究兴趣.然而,当酸性聚离子液体用作催化剂时,由于其酸中心不能充分地暴露在反应底物中,使得它们的催化活性难以达到甚至超越均相催化剂的水平.因此,发展一种催化活性高于均相的酸性聚离子液体催化剂仍是一个巨大的挑战.我们研究组发现在反应底物中溶胀的聚离子液体可作为一种准均相催化剂,其催化活性与相应的均相离子液体相当,这为提高多相催化剂的催化活性提供了一种新的策略.本文报道了一种在水中溶胀且自组装成类蜂窝状网络结构的酸性聚离子液体催化剂,该催化剂在水解和水合反应中表现出优异的催化性能,其活性高于均相酸催化剂.首先通过自由基聚合和酸化两步合成了一系列在水中高度溶胀的酸性聚离子液体(SAPIL-1-6).以三甲基磷氧(TMPO)为探针分子,用31P魔角旋转核磁共振(31P-TMPO NMR)对SAPILs的酸性进行了分析.结果表明,SAPILs具有中等强度的单一酸性.热重分析表明SAPILs拥有优异的热稳定性能(300-345℃),显著地优于商用磺酸树脂Amberlite IR-120(H)(245℃).扫描电镜和冷冻电镜表明,当SAPILs在水中溶胀时,无孔的结构会自发地形成微米级三维类蜂窝状网络结构.这些类蜂窝状网络结构的酸性聚离子液体在催化乙酸环己酯水解制备环己醇中表现出卓越的催化性能,其催化活性明显高于多相酸催化剂(Amberlite IR-120(H)和H-ZSM-5)和均相酸催化剂(硫酸,对甲苯磺酸和均相酸性离子液体[VSIm]HSO4).通过气相色谱定量分析了在一系列模拟的反应体系中溶胀SAPIL-1内部和外部各组分的平衡浓度,发现SAPIL-1内部乙酸环己酯的浓度和乙酸环己酯与环己醇的摩尔比分别是其外部的7.5-23.3倍和4.5-16.4倍,这表明在反应过程中乙酸环己酯被大量富集.此外,SAPILs在环己烯直接水合制备环己醇以及环氧乙烷水合制备乙二醇的反应中均表现出优异的催化性能.值得说明的是,SAPILs具有很好的循环使用性能,10次循环后催化活性无明显改变.这些具有蜂窝状结构和对反应底物高富集SAPILs的成功合成及应用为开发高效的多相酸催化剂提供了一种新的思路.

Solution-phase energy profiles for trigonal bipyramidal species postulated as intermediates for the hydrolysis of methyl ethylene phosphate

We present results of solution-phase ab initio and DFT investigations on the trigonal bipyramidal (TBP) intermediates postulated for the hydrolysis of methyl ethylene phosphate (MEP). A key intermediate for the hydrolysis would not be a TBP species with the hydroxyl group axial, but would be a TBP intermediate with the hydroxyl group equatorial. Considering the reaction pathways through this intermediate, not only exclusive ring opening in the dilute alkaline hydrolysis of MEP but also significant amount of exocyclic cleavage in the strong alkali can be rationalized. This interpretation is in accord with the mechanisms proposed by Lim et al. and by Lönnberg et al.     

In-Cu/SiO2催化剂用于醋酸甲酯加氢反应制乙醇

工业上常用玉米生产乙醇,从而造成粮食和燃料的选择两难局面.随着页岩气研究的不断深入以及全球可观的煤炭存量,用醋酸甲酯加氢制乙醇已引起广泛关注.铜基催化剂对酯加氢生成醇有高的转化率和选择性,其中铜铬催化剂性能较高,但铬对人体和环境的潜在危害限制了其广泛应用.Cu/SiO2催化剂价格低廉,环境友好,但其稳定性较差,容易失活不利于工业上应用.因此人们对Cu/SiO2催化剂进行改性.本文采用氨蒸法制备了一系列掺杂不同量氧化铟(In2O3)的Cu催化剂(In-Cu/SiO2).采用X射线衍射(XRD)、氮气吸脱附、氢气程序升温脱附(H2-TPD)、傅里叶变换红外光谱(FT-IR)、X射线光电子能谱(XPS)、透射电子显微镜(TEM)以及电感耦合等离子体发射光谱(ICP-OES)等手段对催化剂进行了表征,同时评价了催化剂的活性和稳定性.结果发现,In2O3的改性提高了Cu/SiO2催化剂在醋酸甲酯加氢制乙醇反应中的活性和稳定性; 其中当添加1%In2O3时,醋酸甲酯转化率从83.7%提高至97.8% (反应温度523 K,反应压力3 MPa,氢酯摩尔比15,液时空速2 h?1),且对液时空速的变化耐受性比较强.当液时空速大于3 h?1时,随着液时空速的增加,Cu/SiO2催化剂的活性和选择性急剧下降,而1In-Cu/SiO2催化剂变化相对较小.TEM和XRD结果表明,适量In2O3的掺入改善了Cu/SiO2催化剂活性组分的分散性,铜粒径变小;FT-IR和N2O化学吸附结果显示,In2O3的加入使得页硅酸铜含量增加,从而有效地抑制了催化剂还原过程中铜的聚合,因此催化剂性能提高.XPS结果表明,表面Cu0和Cu+活性位点之间的协同作用有助于改善催化剂性能.Cu/SiO2和1In-Cu/SiO2催化剂100 h的稳定性测试发现,Cu/SiO2催化剂的失活主要是由于活性组分颗粒尺寸聚集变大和表面Cu0和Cu+分布的破坏所致; 而1In-Cu/SiO2催化剂物化性质几乎保持不变,表明适量的In2O3可稳定Cu/SiO2催化剂,延长其使用寿命.由此推断,In2O3可能作为一种隔离剂以抑制铜纳米粒子的热迁移和聚集,从而有效地提高Cu/SiO2催化剂活性和稳定性.     

Zn Cl_2-modified ion exchange resin as an efficient catalyst for the bisphenol-A production

A Zn Cl2-modified ion exchange resin as the catalyst for bisphenol-A synthesis was prepared by the ion exchange method. Scanning electron microscope（SEM）, Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometer（FT-IR）, thermo gravimetric analyzer（TGA） and pyridine adsorbed IR were employed to characterize the catalyst. As a result, the modified catalyst showed high acidity and good thermal stability. Zn2＋coordinated with a sulfonic acid group to form a stable active site, which effectively decreased the deactivation caused by the degradation of sulfonic acid. Thus the prepared catalyst exhibited excellent catalytic activity, selectivity and stability compared to the unmodified counterpart.     

FeCo alloy@N-doped graphitized carbon as an efficient cocatalyst for enhanced photocatalytic H_2 evolution by inducing accelerated charge transfer

Cocatalysts play important roles in improving the activity and stability of most photocatalysts.It is of great significance to develop economical,efficient and stable cocatalysts.Herein,using Na2CoFe(CN)6 complex as precursor,a novel noble-metal-free FeCo@NGC cocatalyst(nano-FeCo alloy@N-doped graphitized carbon) is fabricated by a simple pyrolysis method.Coupling with g-C3 N4, the optimal FeCo@NGC/g-C3N4 receives a boosted visible light driven photocatalytic H2 evolution rate of 42.2 μmol h-1, which is even higher than that of 1.0 wt% Pt modified g-C3N4 photocatalyst.Based on the results of density functional theory(DFT) calculations and practical experiment measurements,such outstanding photocatalytic performance of FeCo@NGC/g-C3N4 is mainly attributed to two aspects.One is the accelerated charge transfer behavior,induced by a photogene rated electrons secondary transfer performance on the surface of FeCo alloy nanoparticles.The other is related to the adjustment of H adsorption energy(approaching the standard hydrogen electrode potential) by the presence of external NGC thin layer.Both factors play key roles in the H2 evolution reaction.Such outstanding performance highlights an enormous potential of developing noble-metal-free bimetallic nano-alloy as inexpensive and efficient cocatalysts for solar applications.

Similar to the benzocyclobutenes, the cyclobutene-annelated pyrimidones 3 undergo thermal ring opening and the resulting o-quinodimethane analogues readily cycloadd dienophiles to yield tetrahydroquinazolone derivatives.     

The use of LCMS as an analytical tool for hydrolysis/polycondensation monitoring of a chiral ORMOSIL precursor

The kinetic of the sol–gel hydrolysis and polycondensation reactions of a chiral ORMOSIL precursor was investigated by LCMS technique as a function of water excess and pH. While the amount of water does not significantly change the kinetics, the reactions strongly depend on the [H]⁺ concentration. At pH ≤ 3, the hydrolysis is very fast and the conversion of the precursor is completed within less than 1 h whereas at 80% of the precursor is still present after 50 h at pH = 3.5. This kinetic study allows to define a set of initial conditions and time ranges required to provide good optical quality dip coated films .

Theoretical study on the reaction mechanism for the hydrolysis of esters and amides under acidic conditions

The mechanisms underlying the hydrolysis of methyl acetate and acetamide under acidic conditions were investigated using the MP2/6-311+G(d,p)//MP2/6-31+G(d,p) level of theory. It was necessary to include two water molecules as reactants to obtain a tetrahedral (TD) intermediate for the A_AC2 mechanism that Ingold classified for the hydrolysis of methyl acetate. This mechanism includes two TS structures, one for the formation of the TD intermediate and the other for its decomposition. Since the activation energies were calculated to be 15.7 and 18.3 kcal mol⁻¹, the second step determines the rate of hydrolysis. The calculated value was close to that observed at ∼16 kcal mol⁻¹. It was confirmed that the A_AC2 mechanism had a barrier lower by 9.9 kcal mol⁻¹ than the A_AL2 mechanism. The A_AC2 mechanism is also applicable to the acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of acetamide. It is not the TD intermediate with which the NH₃⁺ moiety forms, but one further step is required to produce the final products, acetic acid and ammonium ion.     

Coherent Bi2O3-TiO2 hetero-junction material through oriented growth as an efficient photo-catalyst for methyl orange degradation

In this work, we report the synthesis of a Bi₂O₃-TiO₂ hetero-junction (HJ) material through a facile colloidal method. The hetero-junction formation follows a growth with a 145°Bi₂O₃/TiO₂ crystal angle, owing to the large lattice mismatch between Bi₂O₃ and TiO₂ crystals. With the Bi₂O₃-TiO₂ hetero-junction material as a photocatalyst, methyl orange is degraded completely within two hours under common UV-lamp irradiation. The photo-catalyst remains highly-active for complete photo-degradation of methyl orange even after multiple experiments. The remarkable photo-catalytic properties are attributed to the remarkable mono-dispersivity of the colloidal Bi₂O₃-TiO₂ nano-structure as well as the refined band structure with a valence band of 0.85 eV below that of TiO₂ crystal.     

[Cd2(tren)2(dl-alaninato)](ClO4)3: an efficient water-compatible Lewis acid catalyst for chemo-, regio-, and diastereo-selective allylation of various aldehydes

The reaction proceeded smoothly to afford the corresponding homoallyl alcohols in up to 96% yield. Additionally, cinnamyltributylstannane was selected as the allylation reagent, the regio- and diastereoselectivity of the reaction favors the formation of the γ-product and the anti isomers, respectively.
