HCHO+X(X=F、Cl、Br)的反应机理

采用CCSD/6-311++G(d,p)//B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p)方法研究了HCHO与卤素原子X(X=F、Cl、Br)的反应机理. 计算结果表明, 卤素原子X(X=F、Cl、Br)主要通过直接提取HCHO中的H原子生成HCO+HX(X=F、Cl、Br). 另外还可以生成稳定的中间体, 中间体再通过卤原子夺氢和氢原子直接解离两个反应通道分别生成HCO+HX(X=F、Cl、Br)和H+XCHO(X=F、Cl、Br). 其中卤原子夺氢通道为主反应通道, HCO和HX(X=F、Cl、Br)为主要的反应产物; 且三个反应的活化能均较低, 说明此类反应很容易进行, 计算结果与实验结果符合很好. 电子密度拓扑分析显示, 在HCHO+X反应通道(b)中出现了T型结构过渡态, 结构过渡态(STS)位于能量过渡态(ETS)之后. 并且按F、Cl、Br的顺序, 结构过渡态出现得越来越晚.     

DFT Study of VOC Pollutants Catalyzed by Optimal Mo_xO_y:Exploration of Reaction Mechanism of CH_3COOH + MoO_2

We propose the complicated catalytic mechanisms for the acetic acid molecule catalyzed by transition metal oxide MoO_2 based on density functional theory calculations. The geometries and energetic values of all stationaries and transition states involved in the three different reaction pathways(Channels Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ) are reported and analyzed. All reaction mechanisms are fully different from that of Mo_xO_y catalyzing volatile organic compounds(VOCs) in previous studies. The completely new mechanisms catalyzed by MoO_2 for acetic acid have been discovered for the first time. Channels Ⅰ(ⅠA and ⅠB) and Ⅱ are both addition reactions and channel Ⅲ is hydrogen abstraction reaction by producing a leaving group. The barrier energies of reaction are also compared with other catalytic reactions, showing that MoO_2 catalyst expresses a lower barrier energy(8.22 kcal/mol) by addition reaction, which represents MoO_2 tends to absorb acetic acid pollution gas via addition reaction rather than release toxic substances. This also means that MoO_2 is a more effective and representative catalyst and is suitable for further study of catalytic carboxylic acids, so the reaction mechanisms may provide a useful theoretical guidance and solution for the catalysis of carboxylic acids.     

AuClx (x=1, 3)催化2-炔丙基苯酮与苯炔环化反应机理

对金属元素Au采用LanL2DZ基组,对非金属元素C,H,O,Cl采用6-31G*和6-311++G**基组,用密度泛函理论的B3LYP、B3PW91、UB3LYP方法和二阶微扰理论MP2方法研究了不同氧化态的金催化剂催化2-炔丙基苯酮与苯炔环化反应的机理.结果表明:在AuCl和AuCl3的作用下,反应均能通过[4+2]和[3+2]途径生成产物.但在AuCl催化下,[4+2]反应途径比[3+2]反应途径具有更低的活化自由能,反应主要通过[4+2]途径进行;而在AuCl3催化下,[4+2]反应途径与[3+2]反应途径的活化自由能相近,反应通过两条途径竞争生成产物.比较AuCl和AuCl3的催化效果发现,不同氧化态的金催化剂改变了反应的机理,该反应的活化自由能在AuCl作用下比在AuCl3作用下低11.18 kJ·mol-1.对于该反应,AuCl表现出了更好的催化活性.这些计算结果和实验现象相吻合.

Mechanisms of the reactions of W and W+ with NOx (x=1, 2): a computational study

The mechanisms of the reactions of W and W+ with NOx (x=1, 2) were studied at the CCSD(T)/[SDD+6-311G(d)]//B3LYP/[SDD+6-31G(d)] level of theory. It was shown that the insertion pathway of the reaction W(7S)+NO2(2A1) is a multistate process, which involves several lower lying electronic states of numerous intermediates and transition states, and leads to oxidation, WO(3Sigma)+NO(2Pi), and/or nitration, WN(4Sigma)+O2(3Sigmag-), of the W-center. Oxidation products WO(3Sigma)+NO(2Pi) lie 87.6 kcal/mol below the reactants, while the nitration channel is only 31.0 kcal/mol exothermic. Furthermore, it was shown that nitration of W with NO2 is kinetically less favorable than its oxidation. The addition-dissociation pathway of the reaction W(7S)+NO2(2A1) proceeds via the octet (ground) state potential energy surface of the reaction, requires 3.3 kcal/mol barrier, and leads exclusively to oxidation products. Calculations show that oxidation of the W+ cation by NO2 is a barrierless process in the gas phase, proceeds exclusively via the insertion pathway, and is exothermic by 82.9 kcal/mol. The nitration of W+ by NO2 is only 14.1 kcal/mol exothermic and could be accessible only under high-temperature conditions. Reactions of M=W/W+ with NO are also barrierless processes in the gas phase and lead to the N-O insertion product NMO, which are 105.4 and 77.4 kcal/mol lower than the reactants for W and W+, respectively.     

Cyclometalated [Os(C-N)x(N-N)(3-x)]m+ mimetics of tris(2,2'-bipyridine)osmium(II): covering a 2 V potential range by known (x = 0, 1) and new (x = 2, 3) species (C-N = o-2-phenylpyridinato)

Electrochemical studies of [Os(C-N)(x)(N-N)(3-x)](m+) (1) consisting of known Os(II) species with x = 0 (a) and 1 (b) and crystallographically characterized new Os(III) bis- and tris-metalacycles with x = 2 (c) and 3 (d) (N-N = 2,2'-bipyridine, (-)C-N = 2-phenylpyridinato) revealed a Nernstian behavior in MeCN. A stepwise replacement of neutral N-N ligands by three anionic C-N donors covers a 2 V potential range from -1 to +1 V vs. Ag/AgCl for the Os(III)/Os(II) feature.     

Atmospheric chemistry of n-C(x)F(2)(x)(+1)CHO (x = 1, 2, 3, 4): fate of n-C(x)F(2)(x)(+1)C(O) radicals

Smog chamber/FTIR techniques were used to study the atmospheric fate of n-C(x)F(2)(x)(+1)C(O) (x = 1, 2, 3, 4) radicals in 700 Torr O(2)/N(2) diluent at 298 +/- 3 K. A competition is observed between reaction with O(2) to form n-C(x)()F(2)(x)()(+1)C(O)O(2) radicals and decomposition to form n-C(x)F(2)(x)(+1) radicals and CO. In 700 Torr O(2)/N(2) diluent at 298 +/- 3 K, the rate constant ratio, k(n-C(x)F(2)(x)(+1)C(O) + O(2) --> n-C(x)F(2)(x)(+1)C(O)O(2))/k(n-C(x)F(2)(x)(+1)C(O) --> n-C(x)F(2)(x)(+1) + CO) = (1.30 +/- 0.05) x 10(-17), (1.90 +/- 0.17) x 10(-19), (5.04 +/- 0.40) x 10(-20), and (2.67 +/- 0.42) x 10(-20) cm(3) molecule(-1) for x = 1, 2, 3, 4, respectively. In one atmosphere of air at 298 K, reaction with O(2) accounts for 99%, 50%, 21%, and 12% of the loss of n-C(x)F(2)(x)(+1)C(O) radicals for x = 1, 2, 3, 4, respectively. Results are discussed with respect to the atmospheric chemistry of n-C(x)F(2)(x)(+1)C(O) radicals and their possible role in contributing to the formation of perfluorocarboxylic acids in the environment.     

Dihydrogen complexes of rhodium: [RhH2(H2)x (PR3)2]+ (R = Cy, iPr; x = 1, 2)

Addition of H2 (4 atm at 298 K) to [Rh(nbd)(PR3)2][BAr(F)4] [R = Cy, iPr] affords Rh(III) dihydride/dihydrogen complexes. For R = Cy, complex 1a results, which has been shown by low-temperature NMR experiments to be the bis-dihydrogen/bis-hydride complex [Rh(H)2(eta2-H2)2(PCy3)2][BAr(F)4]. An X-ray diffraction study on 1a confirmed the {Rh(PCy3)2} core structure, but due to a poor data set, the hydrogen ligands were not located. DFT calculations at the B3LYP/DZVP level support the formulation as a Rh(III) dihydride/dihydrogen complex with cis hydride ligands. For R = iPr, the equivalent species, [Rh(H)2(eta2-H2)2(P iPr3)2][BAr(F)4] 2a, is formed, along with another complex that was spectroscopically identified as the mono-dihydrogen, bis-hydride solvent complex [Rh(H)2(eta2-H2)(CD2Cl2)(P iPr3)2][BAr(F)4] 2b. The analogous complex with PCy3 ligands, [Rh(H)2(eta2-H2)(CD2Cl2)(PCy3)2][BAr(F)4] 1b, can be observed by reducing the H2 pressure to 2 atm (at 298 K). Under vacuum, the dihydrogen ligands are lost in these complexes to form the spectroscopically characterized species, tentatively identified as the bis hydrides [Rh(H)2(L)2(PR3)2][BAr(F)4] (1c R = Cy; 2c R = iPr; L = CD2Cl2 or agostic interaction). Exposure of 1c or 2c to a H2 atmosphere regenerates the dihydrogen/bis-hydride complexes, while adding acetonitrile affords the bis-hydride MeCN adduct complexes [Rh(H)2(NCMe)2(PR3)2][BAr(F)4]. The dihydrogen complexes lose [HPR3][BAr(F)4] at or just above ambient temperature, suggested to be by heterolytic splitting of coordinated H2, to ultimately afford the dicationic cluster compounds of the type [Rh6(PR3)6(mu-H)12][BAr(F)4]2 in moderate yield.     

Ab initio chemical kinetics for SiH3 reactions with Si(x)H2x+2 (x = 1-4)

Gas-phase kinetics and mechanisms of SiH(3) reactions with SiH(4), Si(2)H(6), Si(3)H(8), and Si(4)H(10), processes of relevance to a-Si thin-film deposition, have been investigated by ab initio molecular orbital and transition-state theory (TST) calculations. Geometric parameters of all the species involved in the title reactions were optimized by density functional theory at the B3LYP and BH&HLYP levels with the 6-311++G(3df,2p) basis set. The potential energy surface of each reaction was refined at the CCSD(T)/6-311++G(3df,2p) level of theory. The results show that the most favorable low energy pathways in the SiH(3) reactions with these silanes occur by H abstraction, leading to the formation of SiH(4) + Si(x)H(2x+1) (silanyl) radicals. For both Si(3)H(8) and n-Si(4)H(10) reactions, the lowest energy barrier channels take place by secondary Si-H abstraction, yielding SiH(4) + s-Si(3)H(7) and SiH(4) + s-Si(4)H(9), respectively. In the i-Si(4)H(10) reaction, tertiary Si-H abstraction has the lowest barrier producing SiH(4) + t-Si(4)H(9). In addition, direct SiH(3)-for-X substitution reactions forming Si(2)H(6) + X (X = H or silanyls) can also occur, but with significantly higher reaction barriers. A comparison of the SiH(3) reactions with the analogous CH(3) reactions with alkanes has been made. The rate constants for low-energy product channels have been calculated for the temperature range 300-2500 K by TST with Eckart tunneling corrections. These results, together with predicted heats of formation of various silanyl radicals and Si(4)H(10) isomers, have been tabulated for modeling of a-Si:H film growth by chemical vapor deposition.     

Cu_2O(111)催化水煤气变换反应机理的理论研究

采用密度泛函理论结合周期平板模型方法系统地研究了水煤气变换反应在Cu_2O(111)表面上的反应机理,包括氧化还原机理、羧基机理和甲酸根机理.结果表明,在Cu_2O(111)表面,羧基机理和甲酸根机理均可行,且甲酸根机理更为有利,其最佳反应途径为H_2O~*→H~*+OH~*;CO(g)+H~*+OH~*→trans-HCOOH~*(1)→cis-HCOOH~*→CO_2~*+H_2(g).其中trans-HCOOH~*(1)→cis-HCOOH~*为其决速步,该基元反应的能垒仅为59 kJ·mol~(-1).羧基机理的最优反应路径同样是以H_2O的解离反应开始,随后CO(g)+OH~*→cis-COOH~*→trans-COOH~*→CO_2(g)+H~*,最后产生的两个吸附的H原子先迁移再结合生成H_2,整个反应的控速步骤为H原子的迁移,迁移能垒为96 kJ·mol~(-1).氧化还原机理则由于OH解离需要越过一个很高的能垒(254 vs.187 kJ·mol~(-1))而不可行.     

The gas phase tropospheric removal of fluoroaldehydes (CxF2x+1CHO, x = 3, 4, 6)

The rate coefficient of the OH reaction with the perfluoroaldehydes C(3)F(7)CHO and C(4)F(9)CHO have been determined in the temperature range 252-373 K using the pulsed laser photolysis-laser induced fluorescence (PLP-LIF) method: k(C(3)F(7)CHO+OH) = (2.0 +/- 0.6) x 10(-12) exp[-(369 +/- 90)/T] and k(C(4)F(9)CHO+OH) = (2.0 +/- 0.5) x 10(-12) exp[-(356 +/- 70)/T] cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1), corresponding to (5.8 +/- 0.6) x 10(-13) and (6.1 +/- 0.5) x 10(-13) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1), respectively, at 298 K. The UV absorption cross sections of these two aldehydes and CF(3)(CF(2))(5)CH(2)CHO have been measured over the range 230-390 nm at 298 K and also at 328 K for CF(3)(CF(2))(5)CH(2)CHO. The obtained results for C(3)F(7)CHO and C(4)F(9)CHO are in good agreement with two recent determinations but the maximum value of the absorption cross section for CF(3)(CF(2))(5)CH(2)CHO is over a factor of two lower than the single one recently published. The photolysis rates of C(3)F(7)CHO, C(4)F(9)CHO and CF(3)(CF(2))(5)CHO have been measured under sunlight conditions in the EUPHORE simulation chamber in Valencia (Spain) at the beginning of June. The photolysis rates were, respectively, J(obs) = (1.3 +/- 0.6) x 10(-5), (1.9 +/- 0.8) x 10(-5) and (0.6 +/- 0.3) x 10(-5) s(-1). From the J(obs) measurements and calculated photolysis rate J(calc), assuming a quantum yield of unity across the atmospheric range of absorption of the aldehydes, quantum yields J(obs)/J(calc) = (0.023 +/- 0.012), (0.029 +/- 0.015) and (0.046 +/- 0.028) were derived for the photodissociation of C(3)F(7)CHO, C(4)F(9)CHO and CF(3)(CF(2))(5)CHO, respectively. The atmospheric implication of the data obtained in this work is discussed. The main conclusion is that the major atmospheric removal pathway for fluoroaldehydes will be photolysis, which under low NO(x) conditions, may be a source of fluorinated carboxylic acids in the troposphere.     

Theoretical Study of CH3CH=CH2+O(1D) Reaction: Mechanism and Kinetics

The mechanism and kinetics for the reaction of propene(CH₃CH=CH₂) molecule with O(¹D) atom were investigated theoretically. The electronic structure information of the potential energy surface(PES) was obtained at the B3LYP/6-311+G(d,p) level, and the single-point energies were refined by the multi-level MCG3-MPWB method. The calculated results show that O(¹D) atom can attack CH₃CH=CH₂ via the barrierless insertion mechanism to form four energy-riched intermediates CH₃C(OH)CH₂(IM1), CH₃CHCHOH(IM2), CH₂OHCHCH₂(IM3) and cyclo- CH₂OCHCH₃(IM4), respectively, on the singlet PES. The branching ratios as well as the pressure- and temperaturedependence of various product channels for this multi-well reaction were predicted by variational transition-state and Rice-Ramsperger-Kassel-Marcus(RRKM) theories. The present results will be useful to gain a deep insight into the reaction mechanism and kinetics of CH₃CH=CH₂+O(¹D) reaction.     

Theoretical investigation of small polyatomic ions observed in inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry: H(x)CO+ and H(x)N2(+) (x = 1, 2, 3)

Two series of small polyatomic ions, HxCO+ and HxN2(+) (x = 1, 2, 3), were systematically characterized using three correlated theoretical techniques: density functional theory using the B3LYP functional, spin-restricted second-order perturbation theory, and singles + doubles coupled cluster theory with perturbative triples. On the basis of thermodynamic data, the existence of these ions in inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) experiments is not surprising since the ions are predicted to be considerably more stable than their corresponding dissociation products (by 30-170 kcal/mol). While each pair of isoelectronic ions exhibit very similar thermodynamic and kinetic characteristics, there are significant differences within each series. While the mechanism for dissociation of the larger ions occurs through hydrogen abstraction, the triatomic ions (HCO+ and HN2(+)) appear to dissociate by proton abstraction. These differing mechanisms help to explain large differences in the abundances of HN2(+) and HCO+ observed in ICP-MS experiments.

The effect of varying carboxylate ligation on the electronic environment of N2O(x) (x = 1-3) nonheme iron: a DFT analysis

Mononuclear nonheme iron oxygenase (MNO) enzymes contain a subclass of metalloproteins capable of catalyzing the O(2)-dependent hydroxylation of unactivated substrates at a ferrous ion center coordinated to a highly conserved His-His-Glu/Asp motif. These enzymes, which utilize additional reducing equivalents obtained from the decarboxylation of a coordinated α-ketoglutarate (αKG) cofactor, do not readily interact with O(2) in the absence of αKG binding. Density functional theory calculations with the B3LYP functional were performed to gain insight into the electrochemical behavior of three sets of Fe(II/III) complexes containing a core N, N, O facial binding motif in which the number of carboxylate ligands was systematically altered, to provide one, two (cis) or three (fac) labile sites. The calculated trend in Fe(II/III) reduction potentials was observed to parallel that observed in cyclic voltammetry experiments, showing a decrease in potential (stabilized oxidized state) with increasing carboxylate ligation. This trend does not appear to be the result of differential charge on the metal complex. Changes in the redox-active molecular orbital (RAMO) energy due to covalent effects dominate across the series of complexes when chloride is modeled as the labile ligand, with the π anti-bonding nature of the RAMO being an important factor. With water molecules as the labile ligands, however, a much steeper redox dependence on the number of carboxylate ligands is observed and this effect seems to be largely electrostatic in origin. Differential relaxation of the occupied molecular orbitals in the ferric complexes appears to contribute to the redox trend as well. Finally, these observations are placed in the context of MNO enzyme mechanisms.

Organometallic derivatives of fullerenes: a DFT study of (eta2-Cx)[Pt(PH3)2]n (x = 60, 70, 84; n = 1-6)

To determine the relationship among curvature, patch type, and reactivity of the C-C site, a series of density functional calculations were performed on several substituted fullerenes. [6:6] pyracylene-type sites are the most reactive sites in all analyzed cages: C(60), C(70), and C(84). The binding energy between the Pt(PH(3))(2) unit and fullerene is almost independent of the size of the cage and of the number of metals coordinated on the fullerene surface. Contrarily, curvature and type of carbon-carbon bond are determinant for the coordination strength. The use of relatively large basis sets is necessary to have consistent energies.     

CH3SOx (x＝0, 1)与三线态Oy (y＝1, 2, 3)反应机理的理论研究

Gadolinium-based mixed-metal nitride clusterfullerenes Gd(x)Sc(3-x)N@C80 (x=1, 2).

The first gadolinium-based mixed-metal nitride clusterfullerenes Gd(x)Sc(3-x)N@C(80) (I) (1, x=2; 2, x=1) have been successfully synthesized by the reactive gas atmosphere method and isolated facilely by recycling high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The sum yield of 1 and 2 is 30-40 times higher than that of Gd(3)N@C(80) (I). Moreover, an enhanced relative yield of 2 over the Sc(3)N@C(80) (I) is achieved under the optimized synthesis conditions. According to the UV/Vis/NIR spectroscopic characterization, 1 and 2 are both stable fullerenes with large optical band-gaps while 1 has higher similarity to Gd(3)N@C(80) (I) and 2 resembles Sc(3)N@C(80) (I). The vibrational structures of 1 and 2 are studied by Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy as well as density functional theory (DFT) computations. In particular, the structures of the encaged Gd(x)Sc(3-x)N clusters within 1 and 2 are analyzed.
