Theoretical Study on the Structures and Stability of Isomers and Complex of[Si,C,O,O] Sytem

A detailed singlet potential energy surface(PES) of [Si,C,O,O] system including a van der Waals (vdW) comples SiO……CO2,eight isomers,and twelve transiton states is investigated by MP2 and QCISD(T) (single-point)methods.At the final QCISD(T)/6-311 G(2df)//MP2/6-311G(d) level with zero-point energy included,the complex SiO……CO is found to be thermodynamically and kinetically the most stable species.Although eight ismoers are located as local energy minima,they are rather unstable toward isomerization to the dissociation fragments or comples.For the reaction of silocon atoms with carbon dioxide,two competitive reaction channels are found,and the primary pathway,which leads to the products of SiO and CO fragments,is the direct oxygen-abstraction process from carbon dioxide by silicon atom with a41.16 kJ/mol reaction barrier height.Our predications are in good agreement with previous experimental and theoretical studies.     

Ein neues Kupfercobaltboratoxid mit isolierten B2O5-Baugruppen: Cu2Co(B2O5)O

On a New Copper Cobalt Borate Oxide with Isolated B₂O₅ Units: Cu₂Co(B₂O₅)O Single crystals of a new compound with the empirical formula Cu₂CoB₂O₆ were obtained by using a B₂O₃ flux technique. X-ray single crystal technique led to a new structure type. Cu₂CoB₂O₆ crystallizes monoclinic, space group C-P2₁/c (No. 14); a = 3.2250(6); b = 14.847(1); c = 9.1171(6) Å; β = 93.67°; Z = 4. All metal sites are octahedrally coordinated and form a two dimensional framework consisting of edge sharing octahedra ribbons. In addition one observes isolated B₂O₅-units and oxygen which is not coordinated to boron. The far relation to the crystal structure of the mineral Warwickite is illustrated.     

HAsO2异构体结构、相对稳定性与体系势能面

在MP2/6-311++G(d,p)和QCISD(T)/6-311++G(3df,2p)(单点)水平下计算得到了包括9个异构体和10个过滤态的HAsO~2体系势能面。在势能面上,异构体cis-HOAsO(E1)的能量是最低的,其次是trans-HOAsO(E2)和HAsO(O)(C~2~V,E3),能量分别比cis-HOAsO高13.15和192.74kJ/mol。根据体系的势能面,异构体E1,E3及cis-HOOAs(E6),trans-HOOAs(E5)具有一定的动力学稳定性,在实验中应该可以观测到。AsH和O~2反应的第一步产物将会异构化为具有较高动力学稳定性的异构体E3;而OH和AsO反应可直接生成E1。计算结果与HPO~2,HPS~2,HNO~2,HNS~2等价电子相同的分子的势能面进行了比较。     

Theoretical study of [Si,O,C,O] species: Prediction of new species on triplet potential energy surface

The intermediates [Si,O,C,O] of the Si + CO₂ reaction have been studied in detail using high level ab iniitio methods. Both singlet and triplet [Si,O,C,O] species are characterized structurally and energetically. On the singlet potential energy surface (PES), the vdw‐OSi–CO isomer and in the triplet PES, the bent‐SiOCO isomer is found to be thermodynamically as well as kinetically most stable species. All possible isomerization transition states (TS) are located on both singlet and triplet potential surfaces. On the triplet surface, the stability of the trans‐OSiCO isomer is comparable with that of the bent‐SiOCO isomer. A non‐planar cis‐SiOCO isomer is located on the triplet PES, which is predicted for the first time. Heats of formation at 0 K (Δ_fH°, 0 K) for all singlet and triplet species are computed using G3B3, G3MP2, and CBS‐Q theories. The discrepancy between G3B3 and the other two methods for the heat of formation value for triplet trans‐OSiCO is discussed. The PESs for singlet as well as triplet species with their dissociation asymptotes are explored at the CCSD(T)/6‐311G(d,p)//MP2/6‐311G(d,p) level of theory. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A theoretical study on the structures and energetics of hypothetical TiM(NCN)3 compounds of the 3d transition metals

Quasi-ternary cyanamides and carbodiimides of general formula AB(NCN)(3) with A not equal B have neither been predicted nor synthesized. Thus, hypothetical compounds of that kind containing 3d transition metals were considered (A = Ti, B = Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu) by means of density-functional calculations on 34 structural models, most of which were derived from chemically related phases. After performing structure optimizations based on the local-density approximation, the relative energetic orderings are rationalized in terms of geometrical factors such as molar volumes and polyhedral connections. Total-energy generalized-gradient calculations evidence that the most stable models are enthalpically favored with respect to the elements. Even at ambient temperatures, the ternary phases are predicted as being thermodynamically stable in terms of their Gibbs free formation energies, especially if energetically competing and low-lying binaries (TiC, TiN) can be excluded by a kinetic reaction control. The best models are characterized by low-spin magnetic transition metals found in octahedral coordination, and the TiN(6) and MN(6) polyhedra either share faces or edges.

A barrier‐free atomic radical‐molecule reaction: N (2D) NO2 (2A1) mechanistic study

The reaction of N (²D) radical with NO₂ molecule has been studied theoretically using density functional theory and ab initio quantum chemistry method. Singlet electronic state [N₂O₂] potential energy surfaces (PES) are calculated at the CCSD(T)/aug‐cc‐pVDZ//B3LYP/6‐311+G(d) + ZPE and G3B3 levels of theory. All the involved transition states for generation of (2NO) and (O₂ + N₂) lie much lower than the reactants. Thus, the novel reaction N + NO₂ can proceed effectively even at low temperatures and it is expected to play a role in both combustion and interstellar processes. On the basis of the analysis of the kinetics of all pathways through which the reactions proceed, we expect that the competitive power of reaction pathways may vary with experimental conditions for the title reaction. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A theoretical study of the isomerization process in tris(2-thienyl)methyl radical

An INDO study has shown that the title compound exists in two diastereomeric propeller-like conformations, a cis form (C₃ symmetry), and a trans form (C₁ symmetry). The cis form is more stable than the trans form by 0·75 kcal/mole. The two forms undergo ready conformational interconversion by the two-ring flip mechanism, with activation energies of ca. 6 kcal/mole.     

New Borate‐citrate: Synthesis,Structure, and Properties of Sr[B(C6H5O7)2](H2O)4·3H2O

Single crystals of Sr[B(C₆H₅O₇)₂](H₂O)₄ · 3H₂O, a new borate‐citrate material, were grown with sizes up to 8 × 6 × 2 mm by slow evaporation of water at room temperature. The structure of Sr[B(C₆H₅O₇)₂](H₂O)₄ · 3H₂O was determined by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. It crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c, with a = 11.363(3) Å, b = 18.829(4) Å, c = 11.976(3) Å, β = 110.736(3)°, and Z = 4. The SrO₈ dodecahedra, BO₄ tetrahedra and citrate groups are linked together to form chains. The compound was characterized by IR and UV/Vis/NIR transmittance spectroscopy as well as thermal analysis.     

A combined theoretical and thermal analysis study on the solid state linkage isomerization of Ni(II)-nitrite complexes with ethylenediamine derivatives*

Solid state stepwise nitro–nitrito linkage isomerization of trans-[dinitrobis(ethylenediamine)nickel(II)], [Ni(en)₂(NO₂)₂] (N,N-en), trans-[dinitrobis(N,N′-dimethylethylenediamine)nickel(II)], [Ni(N,N′-dmen)₂(NO₂)₂] (N,N-dmen), and trans-[dinitritobis(N,N-dimethylethylenediamine)nickel(II)], [Ni(N,N-dmen)₂(ONO)₂] (O,O-udmen) were investigated by performing non-isothermal differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analyses and the thermodynamic and thermokinetic parameters of isomerization were determined using DSC curves. Both N,N-en and N,N-dmen DSC curves show an endothermic peak at elevated temperatures, attributed to dinitro-to-dinitrito linkage isomerization. Similar exothermic peaks were observed in the cooling cycle, assigned to the reverse dinitrito-to-dinitro isomerization. The O,O-udmen isomer is more stable than the corresponding dinitro one at ambient temperatures, but an exothermic dinitrito-to-dinitro isomerization occurs upon cooling down to ?70 °C and reverts endothermically to dinitrito isomer upon heating up to ambient temperature. The overlapping DSC peaks associated with stepwise linkage isomerization were resolved using nonlinear fitting method. The peak temperature and the enthalpy changes of linkage isomerization are inversely dependent on the steric hindrance provided by diamine ligands, which increases in the order udmen > dmen > en. The results showed that the steric factor of the co-ligands also influences the kinetic parameters of isomerization, so that more bulky ligand substituent leads to higher isomerization rate constants. A DFT and TD-DFT calculations have been carrid out on both dinitro complexes of this investigation .     

A theoretical study of the CH2N isomers: Molecular structure and energetics

Molecular structure and energetics of the four isomers of CH₂N, namely H₂CN, trans‐HCNH, cis‐HCNH, and H₂NC, have been investigated by means of a highly accurate level of theory, i.e., using the coupled cluster method in conjunction with correlation consistent basis sets ranging in size from triple to sextuple zeta. Extrapolation to the complete basis set limit, higher excitations in the cluster operator as well as core correlation and relativistic effects have been considered. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Au/HZSM-5沸石催化剂的正丁烷异构化反应性能的研究

采用脉冲微反装置评价了纯正丁烷、含有不同比例异丁烷的混合丁烷在Au改性的纳米HZSM-5催化剂上的反应活性和异构化选择性。结果表明,在300℃时,载金量为1.31%的催化剂上纯正丁烷原料的转化率可达7.0%,异丁烷选择性可达80%以上。相比之下,在纳米HZSM-5载体上正丁烷的转化率只有0.55%,异丁烷选择性仅为11.67%。在Au负载量为0.12%~1.91%,随着Au负载量的增加,正丁烷转化率先增后减,异丁烷选择性在低负载量时增加明显。在反应温度低于400℃时,纯正丁烷在载金催化剂上主要发生异构化反应;高于400℃时,主要发生裂解和芳构化等反应,即400℃是正丁烷在脉冲微反条件下异构化和裂解等反应的分水岭。另外,混合丁烷的组成对正丁烷异构化反应有一定影响,但在适当温度下正丁烷异构化时裂解产物很少,表现出金属-酸双功能催化特征。Au⁺在反应中发挥了脱氢和加氢作用。     

Tunnelling and reaction path curvature effects in the isomerization of the methoxy radical

The reaction path hamiltonian is used to investigate the isomerisation CH₃O CH₂OH; the reaction path, the frequencies along it and the coupling coefficients describing reaction path curvature were calculated by ab-initio methods. Correlation effects were included by configuration interaction using a double-zeta-plus-polarisation basis set. Including both tunnelling and curvature gives temperature dependent rate constants in broad agreement with experiment, whereas previous results were in error by several orders of magnitude.

H2O在Fe3O4 (111)表面吸附的结构及热力学研究

使用密度泛函理论（GGA/PBE）对H₂O在Fe_tet1-和Fe_oct2-终结Fe₃O₄ (111)表面的吸附行为进行了研究。对于Fe_tet1-终结表面,在1/5 ML覆盖度下,带有氢键的H₂O分子以及异裂解离的结构具有最高的稳定性,而类似水合氢离子的OH₃⁺-OH结构出现在2/5 ML覆盖度下,其次为带有氢键的水的聚合体。这些结果与实验中观测到的现象一致。对于Fe_oct2-终结表面,在1/6 ML覆盖度下,分子态H₂O的吸附是有利的,而在1/3 ML覆盖度下多种吸附形式共存。H₂O吸附在Fe_tet1-终结表面比吸附在Fe_oct2-终结表面热力学上更有利。此外,通过计算局域态密度（LDOS）对吸附机理进行了分析。     

Isomeric structures, isomerization and decomposition of silylenoids H2SiMX(MX=KF,KCl LiBr,NaBr and KBr)

The isomeric structures,isomerization and decomposition of silylenoids H2SiMX (MX= KF,KCI,LiBr,NaBr and KBr) have been investigated by 06 initio molecular orbital theory.These silylenoids have four kinds of very similar equilibrium structures.The three-membered ring and p-complex structures should be stable and experimentally detectable.The lifetime of o-complex and tetrahedral structures would be very short and experimentally undetectable.     

Theoretical Studies on Structure,Isomerization, and Stability of [Si,O, S]

The structures, energetics, and isomerization of a possible interstellar [Si, O, S] system were explored at the CCSD(T)/aug-cc-pVQZ//CCSD(T)/aug-cc-pVTZ level. On the schemaitc potential energy surface(PES), we found that silicon oxysulfide(OSiS) produced in laboratory is the global minimum. An analysis of the Wiberg bond index(WBI), bond order and the bond length, shows that silicon oxysulfide contains SiO and SiS double bonds in accordance with the results of Schn?ckel. Besides silicon oxysulfide, another interesting cyclic minimum(c-SiOS) was found to have a very high kinetic stability stabilized by the least barrier of 120.9 kJ/mol. In light of the fact that no cyclic sulfide-containing species has been detected in space, c-SiOS could be a very promising candidate. The presented results might provide useful information on detected interstellar molecules O=Si=S and c-SiOS.

Theoretical study on the ion–molecule reaction of NH+ with CH2O

An in‐depth theoretical study is carried out at the B3LYP/6‐311G(d,p), M062X/aug‐cc‐pVDZ and CCSD(T)/6‐311++G(3df,2dp) (single‐point) levels as an attempt to explore the mechanism of the little‐understood ion–molecule reaction between NH⁺ and CH₂O. Various possible reaction pathways are taken into account. It is shown that six dissociation products, including P ₁ (²N + CH₂OH⁺), P ₂ (⁴N + CH₂OH⁺), P ₃ (³NH + CH₂O⁺), P ₄ (NH₂ + HCO⁺), P ₅ (NH + CO), and P ₉ (H + CONH) are all accessible both kinetically and thermodynamically. Among these products, P ₄ is the most competitive product with predominant abundance, and the second most feasible product is P ₃ , followed by P ₂ and P ₁ . The remaining products, P ₅ and P ₉ , may have negligible yield under room temperature condition. As the intermediates and transition states involved in the NH⁺ + CH ₂ O reaction all stay below the reactant, the title reaction is expected to be rapid, which is consistent with the measured large rate constant in experiment. The present study will enrich our knowledge of the chemistry of NH⁺. Furthermore, our calculated result is compared with the previous experimental research, and, meanwhile, it provides a useful guide for understanding analogous reaction, NH⁺ with CH₂NH. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Theoretical study on the structures, isomerization and stability of SiC3H isomers

The calculations of the geometry optimizations, energies, dipole moments, vibrational spectra, rotational constants, and isomerization of doublet SiC₃H species were performed using density functional theory and ab initio methods. Four types of isomers, a total of 18 minima, connected by 16 interconversion transition states, were located on the potential energy surface (PES) at the B3LYP/6-311G (d, p) level. More accurate energies were obtained at the CCSD(T)/6-311G(2df, 2p), and G3(MP2) levels. With the highest isomerization barrier, the lowest lying structure, linear A1 possesses the largest kinetic stability. Besides, the isomerization barriers of A2, A4, C2, F1, F4 and F5 are over 10 kcal/mol, and these isomers are also considered to be higher kinetically stable. Other isomers cannot be kinetically stabilized with considerably low isomerization barriers. Investigation on the bonding properties and the computations of vibrational spectra, dipole moments, and rotational constants for SiC₃H isomers are helpful for understanding their structures and also valuable for their detections in the interstellar space and laboratory.
