Local ordering in co‐deposits of water and xenon atoms produced at low temperatures can be followed uniquely by 129Xe NMR spectroscopy. In water‐rich samples deposited at 10 K and observed at 77 K, xenon NMR results show that there is a wide distribution of arrangements of water molecules around xenon atoms. This starts to order into the definite coordination for the structure I, large and small cages, when samples are annealed at ~140 K, although the process is not complete until a temperature of 180 K is reached, as shown by powder Xray diffraction. There is evidence that Xe ? 20 H2O clusters are prominent in the early stages of crystallization. In xenon‐rich deposits at 77 K there is evidence of xenon atoms trapped in Xe ? 20 H2O clusters, which are similar to the small hydration shells or cages observed in hydrate structures, but not in the larger water clusters consisting of 24 or 28 water molecules. These observations are in agreement with results obtained on the formation of Xe hydrate on the surface of ice surfaces by using hyperpolarized Xe NMR spectroscopy. The results indicate that for the various different modes of hydrate formation, both from Xe reacting with amorphous water and with crystalline ice surfaces, versions of the small cage are important structures in the early stages of crystallization.  相似文献

The local magnetic structure in the [FeIII(Tp)(CN)3] building block was investigated by combining paramagnetic Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (pNMR) spectroscopy and polarized neutron diffraction (PND) with first-principle calculations. The use of the pNMR and PND experimental techniques revealed the extension of spin-density from the metal to the ligands, as well as the different spin mechanisms that take place in the cyanido ligands: Spin-polarization on the carbon atoms and spin-delocalization on the nitrogen atoms. The results of our combined density functional theory (DFT) and multireference calculations were found in good agreement with the PND results and the experimental NMR chemical shifts. Moreover, the ab-initio calculations allowed us to connect the experimental spin-density map characterized by PND and the suggested distribution of the spin-density on the ligands observed by NMR spectroscopy. Interestingly, significant differences were observed between the pseudo-contact contributions of the chemical shifts obtained by theoretical calculations and the values derived from NMR spectroscopy using a simple point-dipole model. These discrepancies underline the limitation of the point-dipole model and the need for more elaborate approaches to break down the experimental pNMR chemical shifts into contact and pseudo-contact contributions.  相似文献

A new family of 2‐hydroxyalk(en/yn)ylimidazoles has been evaluated as serine–histidine bare dyad models for the ring‐opening reaction of L ‐lacOCA, a cyclic O‐carboxyanhydride. These models were selected to unravel the implication of intramolecular hydrogen bonding and to substantiate its influence on the nucleophilicity of the alcohol moiety, as it is suspected to occur in enzyme active sites. Although designed to exclusively facilitate the preliminary step of proton transfer during the studied ring‐opening reaction, these minimalistic models depicted a measureable increase in reactivity relative to the isolated fragments. A couple of reliable experimental and theoretical methods have been developed to readily monitor the strength of the intramolecular hydrogen bond in dilute solution. Results show that the folded conformers are the most nucleophilic species because of the intramolecular hydrogen bond.  相似文献

Gas hydrates represent an attractive way of storing large quantities of gas such as methane and carbon dioxide, although to date there has been little effort to optimize the storage capacity and to understand the trade‐offs between storage conditions and storage capacity. In this work, we present estimates for gas storage based on the ideal structures, and show how these must be modified given the little data available on hydrate composition. We then examine the hypothesis based on solid‐solution theory for clathrate hydrates as to how storage capacity may be improved for structure II hydrates, and test the hypothesis for a structure II hydrate of THF and methane, paying special attention to the synthetic approach used. Phase equilibrium data are used to map the region of stability of the double hydrate in PT space as a function of the concentration of THF. In situ high‐pressure NMR experiments were used to measure the kinetics of reaction between frozen THF solutions and methane gas, and 13C MAS NMR experiments were used to measure the distribution of the guests over the cage sites. As known from previous work, at high concentrations of THF, methane only occupies the small cages in structure II hydrate, and in accordance with the hypothesis posed, we confirm that methane can be introduced into the large cage of structure II hydrate by lowering the concentration of THF to below 1.0 mol %. We note that in some preparations the cage occupancies appear to fluctuate with time and are not necessarily homogeneous over the sample. Although the tuning mechanism is generally valid, the composition and homogeneity of the product vary with the details of the synthetic procedure. The best results, those obtained from the gas–liquid reaction, are in good agreement with thermodynamic predictions; those obtained for the gas–solid reaction do not agree nearly as well.  相似文献

We investigated for the first time the abnormal thermal expansion induced by an asymmetric guest structure using high‐resolution neutron powder diffraction. Three dihydrogen molecules (H2, D2, and HD) were tested to explore the guest dynamics and thermal behavior of hydrogen‐doped clathrate hydrates. We confirmed the restricted spatial distribution and doughnut‐like motion of the HD guest in the center of anisotropic sII‐S (sII‐S=small cages of structure II hydrates). However, we failed to observe a mass‐dependent relationship when comparing D2 with HD. The use of asymmetric guest molecules can significantly contribute to tuning the cage dimension and thus can improve the stable inclusion of small gaseous molecules in confined cages.  相似文献

Using density functional theory calculation based on the B3LYP method,we have studied the interactions of H2 molecules with alkali-metal organic complexes C6H6-nLin(n = 1~3),C6H5Na and C6H5K.A significant part of the electronic charge of M s orbital(Li 2s,Na 3s,K 4s) is donated to phenyl and is accommodated by H2 bonding orbital.For all the complexes considered,each bonded alkali-metal atom can adsorb up to five H2 in molecular form with the mean binding energy of 0.59,0.55 and 0.56 eV/H2 molecule for C6H6-nLin(n = 1~3),C6H5Na and C6H5K,respectively.The kinetic stability of these hydrogen-covered organometallic complexes is discussed in terms of energy gap between HOMO and LUMO.It is remarkable that these alkali-metal organic complexes can store up to 23.80 wt% hydrogen.Therefore,the complexes studied may be used as hydrogen storage materials.  相似文献

The interaction of hydrogen with platinum is enormously important in many areas of catalysis. The most significant of these are in polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFC), in which carbon-supported platinum is used to dissociate hydrogen gas at the anode. The nature of adsorbed hydrogen on platinum has been studied for many years on single-crystal surfaces, on high-surface area-platinum metal (Raney platinum and platinum black), and on supported catalysts. Many forms of vibrational spectroscopy have played a key role in these studies, however, there is still no clear consensus as to the assignment of the spectra. In this work, ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) and lattice dynamics were used to study a 1.1 nm nanoparticle, Pt44H80. The results were compared to new inelastic neutron scattering spectra of hydrogen on platinum black and of a carbon-supported platinum fuel cell catalyst and an assignment scheme that rationalises all previous data is proposed.  相似文献

Molecular dynamics simulations of the structure H (sH) clathrate of tert‐butylmethylether show the prevalence of ether–water hydrogen bonding (see picture), absent in the neo‐hexane sH clathrate. This affects guest–cage dynamics and host–water dielectric relaxation dynamics. The 13C and 1H NMR relaxation times for both guests are measured, and the differences are explained in terms of guest–host interactions in the two clathrates.

Reaction between the phosphinito bridged diplatinum species [(PHCy2)Pt(μ‐PCy2){κ2P,O‐μ‐P(O)Cy2}Pt(PHCy2)](Pt–Pt) ( 1 ), and (trimethylsilyl)acetylene at 273 K affords the σ‐acetylide complex [(PHCy2)(η1‐Me3SiC≡C)Pt(μ‐PCy2)Pt(PHCy2){κP‐P(OH)Cy2}](Pt–Pt) ( 2 ) featuring an intramolecular π‐type hydrogen bond. Scalar and dipolar couplings involving the POH proton were detected by 2D NMR experiments. Relativistic DFT calculations of the geometry, relative energy, and NMR properties of model systems of 2 confirmed the structural assignment and allowed the energy of the π‐type hydrogen bond to be estimated (ca. 22 kJ mol?1).  相似文献

First‐principles calculations based on density functional theory are used to investigate the electronic structure along with the stability, bonding mechanism, band gap, and charge transfer of metal‐functionalized silicene to envisage its hydrogen‐storage capacity. Various metal atoms including Li, Na, K, Be, Mg, and Ca are doped into the most stable configuration of silicene. The corresponding binding energies and charge‐transfer mechanisms are discussed from the perspective of hydrogen‐storage compatibility. The Li and Na metal dopants are found to be ideally suitable, not only for strong metal‐to‐substrate binding and uniform distribution over the substrate, but also for the high‐capacity storage of hydrogen. The stabilities of both Li‐ and Na‐functionalized silicene are also confirmed through molecular dynamics simulations. It is found that both of the alkali metals, Li+ and Na+, can adsorb five hydrogen molecules, attaining reasonably high storage capacities of 7.75 and 6.9 wt %, respectively, with average adsorption energies within the range suitable for practical hydrogen‐storage applications.  相似文献

The ability of antifreeze glycoproteins to inhibit clathrate‐hydrate formation is studied using DFT. A 512 cavity, dodecahedral (H2O)20, and the AATA peptide are used to model the inhibitor–clathrate interaction. The presence of AATA in the vicinity of the water cavities not only leads to the formation of complexes, with different peptide/cavity ratios, but also to the deformation of the cavity and to the elongation of several of the hydrogen bonds responsible for keeping the dodecahedral (H2O)20 together. The complexes are formed through hydrogen bonding between the peptides and the water cavities. The glycoproteins are expected to anchor onto the clathrate surface, blocking the access of new water molecules and preventing the incipient crystals from growing. They are also expected to weaken the clathrate structure. Amide IR bands are associated with the complexes’ formation. They are significantly red‐shifted in the hydrogen‐bonded systems compared to isolated AATA. The amide A band is the most sensitive to hydrogen bonding. In addition a distinctive band around 3100 cm?1 is proposed for the identification of clathrate–peptide hydrogen‐bonded complexes.  相似文献

The crystal structure and phase transition of cubic structure II (sII) binary clathrate hydrates of methane (CH4) and propanol are reported from powder X‐ray diffraction measurements. The deformation of host water cages at the cubic–tetragonal phase transition of 2‐propanol+CH4 hydrate, but not 1‐propanol+CH4 hydrate, was observed below about 110 K. It is shown that the deformation of the host water cages of 2‐propanol+CH4 hydrate can be explained by the restriction of the motion of 2‐propanol within the 51264 host water cages. This result provides a low‐temperature structure due to a temperature‐induced symmetry‐lowering transition of clathrate hydrate. This is the first example of a cubic structure of the common clathrate hydrate families at a fixed composition.  相似文献

The block‐localized wave function (BLW) method can derive the energetic, geometrical, and spectral changes with the deactivation of electron delocalization, and thus provide a unique way to elucidate the origin of improper, blueshifting hydrogen bonds versus proper, redshifting hydrogen bonds. A detailed analysis of the interactions of F3CH with NH3 and OH2 shows that blueshifting is a long‐range phenomenon. Since among the various energy components contributing to hydrogen bonds, only the electrostatic interaction has long‐range characteristics, we conclude that the contraction and blueshifting of a hydrogen bond is largely caused by electrostatic interactions. On the other hand, lengthening and redshifting is primarily due to the short‐range n(Y)→σ*(X?H) hyperconjugation. The competition between these two opposing factors determines the final frequency change direction, for example, redshifting in F3CH ??? NH3 and blueshifting in F3CH ??? OH2. This mechanism works well in the series FnCl3?nCH ??? Y (n=0–3, Y=NH3, OH2, SH2) and other systems. One exception is the complex of water and benzene. We observe the lengthening and redshifting of the O?H bond of water even with the electron transfer between benzene and water completely quenched. A distance‐dependent analysis for this system reveals that the long‐range electrostatic interaction is again responsible for the initial lengthening and redshifting.  相似文献

1H and 13C NMR chemical shifts are exquisitely sensitive probes of the local environment of the corresponding nuclei. Ultimately, direct determination of the chemical shifts of sterols in their membrane environment has the potential to reveal their molecular interactions and dynamics, in particular concerning the hydrogen-bonding partners of their OH groups. However, this strategy requires an accurate and efficient means to quantify the influence of the various interactions on chemical shielding. Herein the validity of Hartree-Fock and DFT calculations of the 13C and 1H NMR chemical shifts of cholesterol and ergosterol are compared with one another and with experimental chemical shifts measured in solution at 500 MHz. A computational strategy (definition of basis set, simpler molecular models for the sterols themselves and their molecular complexes) is proposed and compared with experimental data in solution. It is shown in particular that the effects of hydrogen bonding with various functional groups (water as a hydrogen-bond donor and acceptor, acetone) on NMR chemical shifts in CDCl3 solution can be accurately reproduced with this computational approach.  相似文献

Density functional theory calculations are carried out to study CO adsorption on the (001) surface of a LaNi5 hydrogen storage alloy. At low coverages, CO favors adsorption on Ni? Ni bridge sites. With an increase in CO coverage, the decrease in the adsorption energy is much larger for Ni? Ni? CO bridge adsorption than that for Ni? CO on‐top adsorption. Thus, the latter sites in the relatively stable adsorption structure are preferentially utilized at high CO coverages. The nature of the bonding between CO and the LaNi5 (001) surface is analyzed in detail.  相似文献
