从能量和信息理论视角理解单取代烷烃的异构化（英文）

对直链烷烃和支链烷烃的相对稳定性统一的解释仍然没有定论,并且一直在进行着。以单取代的烷烃体系C_nH_(2n+1)―R(n=3,4,5,6;R=OH,OCH_3,NH_2,NO_2,F,Cl,CN,CHO)为例,本文对支链效应的有效性和本质进行了研究。与传统的基于轨道的描述不同的是,本文采用了密度泛函理论的总能量和基于新能量分配方案的能量分量[见Liu,S.B.J.Chem.Phys.2007,126,244103]。新型能量分解方法计算结果表明,静电效应和立体效应等对支链效应的存在都起着重要作用,但是它们均不能单独用来解释支链效应的本质。用双变量(静电势和空间位阻)组合,发现单取代烷烃衍生物的异构化反应主要影响因子是静电势作用,空间位阻效应的影响是次要的。此外还发现了香农熵差与Fisher信息差之间的线性关系,未能发现总能量差或者分能量差值和Fisher信息或者Shannon熵之间的关系。这与前人发现是一致的。

对端基取代的一维无限长反位硅烷H₂N-(SiH₂-SiH₂)_n-NO₂的二阶超极化率进行了系统的量子化学研究. 通过仔细检验和选择外场强度, 采用9个外场强度(0.0000, ±0.0008, ±0.0012, ±0.0016, ±0.0020 a.u.)计算的体系能量来确定4阶场强展开式中的5个系数, 从而得到可靠的二阶超极化率. 建议数据拟合时用二阶超极化率单元值的平均值形式γ(n)/n作为拟合对象, 同时用1/n的2阶多项式作为拟合函数, 以得到无限长链的二阶超极化率极限值. 拟合数据范围的选择应该使该数据范围得到的极限值与其临近数据范围得到的极限值的均方偏差最小. 分子构型的优化使计算的二阶超极化率增加大约20%, 在基组中增加极化函数使二阶超极化率在无限长链时的极限值减少大约15%. 相关效应的影响最大, MP2的结果比RHF的结果增加近一倍. 根据本文最高水平MP2/6-31G(d)//RHF/6-31G的计算, 端基取代的一维无限长反位硅烷H₂N-(SiH₂-SiH₂)_n-NO₂的二阶超极化率的每单元极限值为0.8364×10⁶ a.u.

基于第一性原理, 系统地研究了Be_n (n=1~3)对B₁₂团簇结构的调控. 结果表明: 团簇BeB₁₂全局极小结构为C_s对称性准平面结构, 而Be₂B₁₂和Be₃B₁₂最稳定的结构均为笼状结构, 对称性分别为C_s和C_2v. 随着Be_n (n=1~3)原子数的增加, 团簇B₁₂由准平面结构过渡到笼状结构, 且Be倾向内嵌在B₁₂笼状结构表面的B₇或B₈单元环中, 通过离子和共价作用形成稳定Be&B₇和Be&B₈单元, 从而稳定笼状结构. 自然键轨道(NBO)分析表明, 团簇C_s BeB₁₂, C_s Be₂B₁₂, C_2v Be₃B₁₂内部存在电子转移情况, Be原子2s轨道上失去电子, Be—B键主要以离子作用为主, 同时也存在共价作用. 成键分析显示C_s Be₂B₁₂和C_2v Be₃B₁₂的π键遵循球状芳香性2(n+1)² (n=1)电子计数规则, 表明该团簇具有球状芳香性. 预测了三个结构的红外和拉曼光谱, 为以后的合成实验和数据表征提供了理论基础.     

Pd-Cu/ZrO2催化CO2加氢制甲醇的性能

采用溶胶-凝胶法制备了n(Cu):n(Zr)=1:1、1:2、1:4和1:8的Cu/ZrO₂催化剂。 实验结果表明,当n(Cu):n(Zr)=1:4时,催化剂表现出较高的CO₂转化率(8.0%)和甲醇选择性(59.5%),为了增加CO₂的转化率,提高甲醇选择性,在n(Cu):n(Zr)=1:4的催化剂中添加质量分数1%的Pd,采用浸渍法制备了Pd-Cu/ZrO₂催化剂。 在250 ℃、2 MPa、12000 mL/(g·h)和V(H₂):V(CO₂)=3:1的反应条件下,CO₂转化率和CH₃OH收率相比Cu/ZrO₂催化剂(n(Cu):n(Zr)=1:4)分别提高了40.0%和80.9%。 通过X射线衍射仪(XRD)、傅里叶变换红外光谱仪(FT-IR)、N₂吸附-脱附(BET)、X射线光电子能谱仪(XPS)和程序升温还原化学吸附仪(H₂-TPR)等仪器表征证明Pd的添加提高了催化剂的分散性和比表面积。 催化剂中Pd和Cu之间强相互作用,使Cu2p轨道结合能向低处偏移,还原温度的降低,说明Pd-Cu/ZrO₂催化剂还原能力增强,使得CO₂加氢活性提高。

The electrostatic potential at atomic sites as a reactivity index in the hydrogen bond formation

The paper reviews results from computational studies by molecular orbital and density functional theories on several series of hydrogen bonded complexes. These studies aim at quantifying the reactivity of molecules for the complexation process. Excellent linear relationships are found between the electrostatic potential values at the sites of the electron donor and electron accepting atoms and the energy of hydrogen bond formation (ΔE). The series studied are: (a) complexes of R–CHO and R–CN molecules with hydrogen fluoride; (b) complexes of mono-substituted acetylene derivatives with ammonia; (c) (HCN)_n hydrogen bonded cluster for n=2–7. All 22 studied complexes of carbonyl and nitrile compounds with hydrogen fluoride fall in the same dependence between the energy of hydrogen bond formation and the electrostatic potential at the atomic site of the carbonyl oxygen and nitrile nitrogen atoms, with linear regression correlation coefficient r=0.979. In the case of complexes of mono-substituted acetylene and diacetylene derivatives with NH₃, the correlation coefficient for the dependence between the electrostatic potential at the acidic hydrogen atom and ΔE equals 0.996. For the series of hydrogen bonded (HCN)_n clusters, the correlation coefficient for the relationship between the electrostatic potential at the end nitrogen atom and ΔE is r=0.9996. Similarly, the analogous relationship with the electrostatic potential at the end hydrogen atom has a regression coefficient equal to 0.9994. The dependencies found are theoretically substantiated by applying the Morokuma energy decomposition scheme. The results show that the molecular electrostatic potential at atomic sites can be successfully used to predict the ability of molecules to form hydrogen bonds.     

Molecular mechanics (MM2) calculations and cone angles of phosphine ligands

Molecular mechanics (MM2) calculations were performed on 54 conformations of 18 phosphines (PH₃; PH_3−nR_n, where n = 1,…3, and R = Me and Et, n = 1 or 2 and R =ⁱPr, and n = 1 and R =^tBu, PMe₂Et, PMeEt₂, and PPhMe₂, and PPh₂R where R = Me, Et, ⁱPr, ^tBu and Ph). The results are compared to those previously obtained from MINDO/3 and MNDO calculations, and to experimental data. Single conformer cone angles and weighted average cone angles were calculated from MM2 optimized geometries employing Tolman's general definition, and they are compared to Tolman's values, MINDO/3 results, and T.L. Brown's E_R values. Of the cone angle definitions used, the weighted average values are suggested as the best single representation of phosphine ligand sizes. The steric parameters (cone angle and E_R values) alone, and in conjunction with electronic parameters, are correlated with experimental data.     

环形嵌段共聚物的胶束化行为模拟

利用Monte Carlo模拟, 对比了相同组成下环形二嵌段共聚物AB和线形三嵌段共聚物ABA在选择性溶剂中的胶束化行为. 结果发现, 相同链组成的环形和线形嵌段共聚物的临界胶束浓度(cmc)的差别与A嵌段的比例(f_A)及B嵌段间的吸引强度(ε)密切相关. 在f_A较小、 ε较大的情况下, 相应环形嵌段共聚物的cmc值更小; 而在f_A较大、 ε较小的情况下, 线形嵌段共聚物的cmc值更小. 为了进一步理解胶束化行为同f_A及ε的关系, 计算了胶束化过程中熵和势能部分对自由能的贡献. 结果表明, 在所研究的f_A和ε范围内, 环形嵌段共聚物形成胶束时的熵损失更小, 因而从熵贡献角度来看, 环形嵌段共聚物更易发生胶束化. 而从势能贡献角度来看, 当f_A较小、 ε较大时, 环形嵌段共聚物形成胶束时势能有较大程度的降低, 对自由能的贡献更大, 因而此时环形嵌段共聚物更易发生胶束化. 而当f_A较大、 ε较小时, 线形嵌段共聚物形成胶束时势能有较大程度的降低, 对自由能的贡献更大, 因而此时线形嵌段共聚物更易发生胶束化. 由此可见, 对体系的胶束化自由能进行系统分析, 有助于更好地理解环形和线形嵌段共聚物的胶束化行为.

硅烷类外给电子体对丙烯-丁烯序贯聚合的调控作用

外给电子体(ED)作为负载型Ziegler-Natta催化剂的一个重要组分, 在影响α-烯烃的催化活性及聚合物的立构规整性方面发挥着重要作用. 本文研究了4种不同结构及电子密度的硅烷类外给电子体[二甲基二甲氧基硅烷(D1)、 二丁基二甲氧基硅烷(D2)、 二苯基二甲氧基硅烷(D3)及二环戊基二甲氧基硅烷(D4)]对丙烯均聚及丙烯(一段)-丁烯(二段)序贯聚合的影响. 结果表明, ED对烯烃聚合的催化活性、 活性中心数及活性中心定向能力都具有显著的影响. 密度泛函理论(DFT)模拟计算表明, 随着ED的空间位阻和电子密度增加, ED在MgCl₂表面的吸附能降低, 吸附稳定性降低; ED的空间位阻和电子密度增加有利于提高丙烯聚合活性中心的定向能力, 当n(D4)/n(Ti)=20时, 合成的聚丙烯(PP)中的等规聚丙烯(iPP)组分含量达到92.8%. 当n(ED)/n(Ti)=15时, 丙烯聚合的聚合速率常数达到最大值; 具有更大空间位阻和电子密度的ED使得丙烯-丁烯序贯聚合的活性中心具有更强的定向能力, ED对丁烯(二段)聚合活性及聚丙烯/聚丁烯合金（PBA）中等规聚丁烯(iPB)组分的熔点影响更显著.     

Conformational study on dipeptides containing phenylalanine: A DFT approach

DFT calculations has been done applying 6-31G^* basis set on a series of dipeptides where the N-terminus position is fixed with phenylalanine and the C-terminus is varied with eight different amino acids. Different geometrical parameters (bond angle, bond length, geometry around -carbon atom) are thoroughly investigated to study the effect of amino acid sequence on dipeptide. Dihedral angle data analysis shows the deviation of amide plane from planarity, which is due to the combined effect of the steric hindrance of –R group and hydrogen bonding. The λ_max value for phenylalanine has been calculated, which shows good agreement with the experimental value. A rigid potential energy scan is performed on phenylalanine by rotating –CH₂Ph, –COOH and –NH₂ groups separately to get some idea about the conformational stability.     

芴基张力半导体结构和光电性质的理论研究

[4]Cyclo-9, 9-dimethyl-2, 7-fluorenylene ([4]CF) was used as a model compound to explore the steric strain effect on the structures and photoelectrical properties of materials. A series of strained cyclic polyfluorene materials, [n]CFs (n=3-8), was designed. It was found that the strain energy decreased and the energy gap increased as the number of n and ring diameter increased. The ionization potential and electronic affinity tended to increase and decrease as the strain energy decreased at the same number of [n]CFs, respectively. With a balance between hole and electron reorganization energies in the system, these compounds demonstrated great potential as ambipolar materials. It was also found that [n]CFs showed an obvious blue shift in their emission spectra wavelengths (λ_em2) as the strain energy decreased. Steric strain provides a powerful tool for the design of multifunctional semiconductors in organic optoelectronics.     

Transition metals complexed to ordered mesophases. XIII. Synthesis and mesomorphic properties of potentially ferroelectric Schiff's base palladium(II) complexes

A series of N-[4'-(dodecyloxy)resorcylidene]-4-(RO*)-anilines (HL_n n = 1, R*O = (-)-cis-myrtanyl; n = 2, R*O = (-)-menthyl; n = 3, R*O = S-(-)-β-citronellyl; n = 4, R*O = R-(-)-2-octyl) has been synthesized and the mesomorphic properties investigated. These ligands are able to chelate a metal atom; accordingly three different series of palladium complexes, [(Ln)Pd(Ln)], [(Ln)Pd(Azoxy-6)] and [(L₃)Pd(Ph-Py_n)] (where Azoxy-6 and PhPy_n are cyclopalladated 4,4'-dihexyloxyazoxybenzene and 5-substituted-2-(4-substituted-phenyl)pyrimidine, respectively) have been prepared. The mesogenic HL₃ and HL₄ ligands exhibit a S*_C phase, retained in [(L₃)Pd(L₃)], which changes to a cholesteric phase in [(L₄)Pd(L₄)] and becomes the more ordered S*_H phase in the [(Ln)Pd(Azoxy-6)] (n = 3,4) derivatives. In contrast, in the [(L₃)Pd(Ph-Py_n)] compounds the mesomorphic phase is a S_A phase.     

A density functional theory study on boundary of “superreduced” transition metal carbonyl anions [M(CO)n] (M=Cr, n=5, 4, 3, z=2, 4, 6; M=Mn, n=5, 4, 3, z=1, 3, 5; M=Fe, n=4, 3, 2, z=2, 4, 6; M=Co, n=4, 3, 2, z=1, 3, 5)

A nonlocal density functional theory (DFT) method has been applied to the calculations on optimized geometry, Mulliken atomic net charges and interatomic Mulliken bond orders as well as total bonding energies (E) in the binary transition metal carbonyl anions with different reduced states [M(CO)_n]^z− (M=Cr, n=5, 4, 3, z=2, 4, 6; M=Mn, n=5, 4, 3, z=1, 3, 5; M=Fe, n=4, 3, 2, z=2, 4, 6; M=Co, n=4, 3, 2, z=1, 3, 5). For comparison of relative stability, a relative stabilization energy D is defined as D=E([M(CO)_n]^z− )-nE(CO). The calculated C-O distances are lengthened monotonously with the increase of the anionic charge, but the M-C distances are significantly lengthened only in the higher reduced states. The relative stabilization energy calculated is a considerable negative value in the lower reduced states, but a larger positive value in the higher reduced states. The DFT calculations show that with the increase of the anionic charge, the Mulliken net charges on the M, C, and O atoms all increase, however, an excess of the anionic charge is mainly located at the central metal atom. The calculated C-O Mulliken bond orders decrease consistently with the increase of the anionic charge, but the M-C bond orders exhibit an irregular behavior. However, the total bond orders calculated clearly explain the higher reduced states to be considerably unstable. From analysis of the calculated results, it is deduced that the stability of the binary transition metal carbonyl anions [M(CO)_n]^z− studied are associated with the coordination number n and the anionic charge z, further, it is possible for the anions studied to be stable if n≥z, conversely, it is impossible when n<z.
