有机共轭体系电子转移反应的溶剂重组能

应用Marcus双球模型计算溶剂重组能λs时,在AM1法优化给受体几何构型基础上,提出了共轭体系电子云分布的扁球模型,并用统计的方法求出了rD/A.同时依照Miller等的处理办法,结合其他理论及实验证据将电子转移交叉反应中联苯分子的扭转能计入溶剂重组能λs中,从而用实验速率常数拟合出含扭转能的λs值.此实验拟合值与扁球法得到的λs计算值吻合得很好.通过比较理论值与实验值,发现了给受体间距的大小、受体分子的变化、溶剂的不同对λs计算值相对λs实验值的偏差的影响,直接证实了电子给受体的耦合作用,溶剂分子参与的超交换电子转移及溶质溶剂分子表面相互作用等量子因素造成的实际反应体系对溶剂经典连续介质模型的偏离.     

Solvent Effects in Acid‐Catalyzed Biomass Conversion Reactions

Reaction kinetics were studied to quantify the effects of polar aprotic organic solvents on the acid‐catalyzed conversion of xylose into furfural. A solvent of particular importance is γ‐valerolactone (GVL), which leads to significant increases in reaction rates compared to water in addition to increased product selectivity. GVL has similar effects on the kinetics for the dehydration of 1,2‐propanediol to propanal and for the hydrolysis of cellobiose to glucose. Based on results obtained for homogeneous Brønsted acid catalysts that span a range of pK_a values, we suggest that an aprotic organic solvent affects the reaction kinetics by changing the stabilization of the acidic proton relative to the protonated transition state. This same behavior is displayed by strong solid Brønsted acid catalysts, such as H‐mordenite and H‐beta.     

Assessing Solvation Effects on Chemical Reactions with Globally Optimized Solvent Clusters

We have examined the influence of water solvent on the Menshutkin reaction of methyl chloride with ammonia by performing static, quantum chemical calculations. We have employed large, explicit, and globally structure‐optimized water clusters around the reaction center, in a mixed explicit/implicit solvent model. This approach deliberately deviates from attempts to capture the most likely solvent‐molecule distribution around a reaction center. Instead, it explores extremes on the scale of rearrangement speed in terms of the surrounding solvent cluster, relative to the reaction progress itself. A comparison to traditional theoretical and experimental results enables us to quantify the energy penalty that is induced by the inability of the water cluster to instantaneously and completely follow the reaction progress. In addition, the influence of water clusters on the reaction energy profile can be much larger than merely changing it somewhat. Certain clusters can completely annihilate the sizeable activation barrier of 23.5 kcal mol^?1.     

A Quantitative Study of Solvent Effects on Keto-Enol Tautomeric Equilibria

Solvent effects on competitive intramolecular electron transfer and energy transfer in a covalently linked porphyrin-phthalocyanine heterodimer

Photophysical properties of a porphyrin-phthalocyanine heterodimer covalently linked with a dipentoxy chain have been studied.Absorption spectra show that there is weak exciton coupling between the two chromophores in the ground state.Fluorescence spectra show that intramolecular energy transfer from porphyrin to phthalocyanine moiety occurs in competition with electron transfer.The efficiency of these two processes depends upon the mutual orientation of the two chromophores.The effect of solvent polarity on the intramolecular processes is also discussed.     

卟啉-酞菁分子内能量传递和电子转移的溶剂效应

用稳态荧光光谱研究了以氧原子和哌嗪作为连接基的卟啉酞菁二元分子在不同溶剂中的分子内能量传递和电子转移过程结果表明;分子内的能量传递和电子转移是两个相互竞争的过程，在非极性溶剂中，激发单重态的能量传递是主要过程，而在极性溶剂中则以电子转移为主运用Rehm-Weller公式计算了两种二元化合物在不同溶剂中的电子转移反应的自由能变化△G0ET，表明溶剂的极性对电子转移反应的自由能变化△G0ET影响很大极性越大;体系中的电子转移反应的△G0ET、越负，电子转移反应越易进行由于电子转移过程较能量传递过程进行得快，所以表现为体系中能量传递效率降低而电子转移效率增大。两种二元化合物的能量传递效率（φEnT）利和电子转移效率（φET）随溶剂的极性的变化具有相同的变化趋势

Regenerating Spent Solutions of Vanadium‐containing Heteropoly Acids in the Presence of Additives

Vanadium‐containing heteropoly acid solutions of Keggin H_3+xPMo_12–xV_xO₄₀ and modified H_aP_zMo_yV_xO_b types (P‐Mo‐V HPAs) are promising nanosized inorganic metal‐oxygen cluster compounds with the property of reversible oxidability (V^V ↔ V^IV). The oxidation of reduced P‐Mo‐V HPAs at a temperature of 130–170 °C and an oxygen pressure of 4 atm is a convenient method for their regeneration, but results in regeneration degree of only 75–88 %. Various materials with electron transfer or oxidative properties, such as nitrogen doped carbon nanofibers (N‐CNFs), Sibunit‐4, HNO₃, and MoO₂, were investigated as additives to facilitate and accelerate the regeneration of HPA solutions. Among the studied additives HNO₃ was found to show the best efficiency, resulting in regeneration degree of higher 95 %. Rapid and efficient regeneration of spent HPA catalysts is an important criterion for achieving high productivity and sustainability of oxidative processes on their basis.     

Electron Transfer Processes at Aryl‐Modified Glassy Carbon Electrode

The effect of a layer of electrochemically grafted 4‐diazo‐N,N‐diethylaniline (DEA) groups on the electron transfer kinetics of redox systems, displaying fast and slow heterogeneous electron transfer rate constants at edge and basal planes of carbon, was investigated. The properties of the modified electrode were characterized by cyclic voltammetry using four different inorganic redox systems (Fe(CN) , Co(phen) , Ru(NH₃) , and IrCl in acidic, neutral, and basic media. Two distinct blocking behaviors and electrostatic effects were observed. More precisely, a strong blocking effect of the grafted layer on Fe(CN) and Co(phen) was found, whereas Ru(NH₃) and IrCl showed to be rather unaffected by the presence of the DEA grafted layer.     

Solvent Dependence of Photophysical and Photochemical Behaviors of Thioxanthen-9-one

The photophysical and photochemical behaviors of thioxanthen-9-one (TX) in different solvents have been studied using nanosecond transient absorption spectroscopy. A unique absorption of the triplet state \begin{document}$ ^3 $\end{document}TX\begin{document}$ ^* $\end{document} is observed, which involves two components, \begin{document}$ ^3 $\end{document}n\begin{document}$ \pi $\end{document}\begin{document}$ ^* $\end{document} and \begin{document}$ ^3 $\end{document}\begin{document}$ \pi\pi^* $\end{document} states. The \begin{document}$ ^3 $\end{document}\begin{document}$ \pi\pi^* $\end{document} component contributes more to the \begin{document}$ ^3 $\end{document}TX\begin{document}$ ^* $\end{document} when increasing the solvent polarity. The self-quenching rate constant \begin{document}$ k_{ \rm{sq}} $\end{document} of \begin{document}$ ^3 $\end{document}TX\begin{document}$ ^* $\end{document} is decreased in the order of CH\begin{document}$ _3 $\end{document}CN, CH\begin{document}$ _3 $\end{document}CN/CH\begin{document}$ _3 $\end{document}OH (1:1), and CH\begin{document}$ _3 $\end{document}CN/H\begin{document}$ _2 $\end{document}O (1:1), which might be caused by the exciplex formed from hydrogen bond interaction. In the presence of diphenylamine (DPA), the quenching of \begin{document}$ ^3 $\end{document}TX\begin{document}$ ^* $\end{document} happens efficiently via electron transfer, producing the TX\begin{document}$ ^\cdot $\end{document}\begin{document}$ ^- $\end{document} anion and DPA\begin{document}$ ^{\cdot} $\end{document}\begin{document}$ ^+ $\end{document} cation radicals. Because of insignificant solvent effects on the electron transfer, the electron affinity of the \begin{document}$ ^3 $\end{document}n\begin{document}$ \pi $\end{document}\begin{document}$ ^* $\end{document} state is proved to be approximately equal to that of the \begin{document}$ ^3 $\end{document}\begin{document}$ \pi\pi^* $\end{document} state. However, a solvent dependence is found in the dynamic decay of TX\begin{document}$^{{ \cdot ^ - }}$\end{document} anion radical. In the strongly acid aqueous acetonitrile (pH = 3.0), a dynamic equilibrium between protonated and unprotonated TX is definitely observed. Once photolysis, \begin{document}$ ^3 $\end{document}TXH\begin{document}$ ^{+*} $\end{document} is produced, which contributes to the new band at 520 nm.     

SO·4-自由基氧化酪氨酸反应中的溶剂效应

研究了水-乙腈混合溶液中SO·4-自由基氧化酪氨酸的反应.实验结果表明,SO·4-自由基氧化酪氨酸的反应机制不因乙腈的加入而改变,但所产生的瞬态粒子的动力学行为受到较大影响.随介质中乙腈体积分数的增加,SO·4-的衰变速率减慢而酪氨酸中性自由基(TyrO·)的衰变速率加快.我们认为这两种自由基所呈现出来的相反的溶剂效应是由于其所带电荷的不同.随介质中乙腈体积分数的增加,SO·4-氧化酪氨酸的反应速率减慢.这一实验结果意味着,在有机溶剂存在的情况下TyrO·/TyrOH的氧化还原电势可能发生了变化,从而旁证了关于TyrO·/TyrOH的氧化还原电势因酪氨酸从游离状态变到肽或蛋白质中而发生变化的推测.

Solvent Reorganization Energy and Electronic Coupling for Intramolecular Electron Transfer in Biphenyl-Acceptor Anion Radicals

A novel algorithm was designed and implemented to realize the numerical calculation of the solvent reorganization energy for electron transfer reactions, on the basis of nonequilibrium solvation theory and the dielectric polarizable continuum model. Applying the procedure to the well-investigated intramolecular electron transfer in biphenyl-androstane-naphthyl and biphenyl-androstane-phenanthryl systems, the numerical results of solvent reorganization energy were determined to be around 60 kJ/mol, in good agreement with experimental datKoopman's theorem was adopted for the calculation of the electron transfer coupling element, associated with the linear reaction coordinate approximation. The values for this quantity obtained are acceptable when compared with experimental results.     

“Inverted” Solvent Effect on Charge Transfer in the Excited State

Faster in cyclohexane than in acetonitrile is the fluorescence quenching of the azoalkane 2,3-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]oct-2-ene (DBO) by amines and sulfides. Although this photoreaction is induced by charge transfer (CT; see picture) and exciplexes are formed, the increase in the dipole moment of the exciplex is not large enough to offset the solvent stabilization of the excited reactants, and an “inverted” solvent effect results.     

Solvent effects on optically detected magnetic resonance in triplet spin labels

We have calculated solvent effects on the zero-field splitting (ZFS) constants induced by electron spin–spin coupling (SSC) in the low-lying triplet states of azaaromatic molecules in solutions using multiconfiguration self-consistent-field wave functions and the polarizable continuum model. The second-order spin–orbit coupling (SOC) contribution to the splitting of the ^3* states is found to be almost negligible, and the calculations therefore provide a good estimate of the ZFS parameters and their solvent dependence based only on the electron spin–spin coupling expectation values. The correlation between the shift in the ZFS and the phosphorescence frequency that has been observed in optically detected magnetic resonance experiments in low-temperature glasses is supported by our direct SSC calculations without taking SOC into account. This makes it possible to distinguish between the two theories that earlier were proposed to explain the inhomogeneous broadening of triplet state spectra, and discard the one that is exclusively based on the SOC-induced mixing of the singlet and triplet states.Contribution to the Jacopo Tomasi Honorary IssueAcknowledgments.
