Theoretical studies on the reaction of pentafulvenone with water in gas phase and aqueous solvent

In gas phase, the hydrations of pentafulvenone to generate three types of cyclopentadienyl carboxylic acids are studied theoretically at the MP2/6-311+G**//B3LYP/6-311+G** level. A water molecule attacking the C=O double bond of pentafulvenone can yield cyclopentadienyl carboxylic acids via the formation of fulvenediols, and attacking the C=C double bond of pentafulvenone can directly yield cyclopentadienyl carboxylic acid. The barriers of rate-determining transition states are 42.2 and 30.4 kcal mol⁻¹, respectively. The barriers of rate-determining transition states for two water molecules system are 20.2 and 19.6 kcal mol⁻¹, respectively. The products can isomerize to each other. In aqueous solvent, the hydrations of pentafulvenone are investigated using PCM-UAHF model at the MP2 (PCM)/6-311+G**// B3LYP (PCM)/6-311+G** and MP2 (PCM)/6-311+G**// B3LYP/6-311+G** levels. The barriers of all rate-determining transition states are decreased. The added water molecule acts as catalyst in both gas phase and aqueous solvent.

DFT study on the reaction mechanisms of polyfluorosulfonate ester with F

Gas-phase reaction of C(1)F₃S(2)O₂O(3)C(4)H₂C(5)F₃ and F⁻(16) is investigated using DFT method. The geometries of various stationary points and their relative energies are obtained from 6-31+G*, 6-311G**, and 6-311++G** levels. In the S_N2(C) reaction leading to the cleavage of the C(4)–O(3) bond, the reaction complex results from attacking of F⁻ at a hydrogen atom H11 attached to carbon atom C(4). Afterward, F⁻ is attacking the atom C(4) from the backside of the atom O(3) with the help of the neighboring effect, and meanwhile a multi-membered ring, F(16)–H(11)–C(4)–C(5)–F(16), is being formed. The S_N2(C) reaction is irreversible. On the contrary, the S_N2(S) reaction leading to the cleavage of the S(2)–O(3) bond is reversible, and it is initiated by attacking of F⁻ at the atom S(2) from the backside of the atom O(3). The products of the reaction CF₃SO₃CH₂CF₃ +F⁻ should be, thermodynamically, controlled due to the reversibility of the S_N2(S) reaction, and those result, chemospecifically, from the cleavage of the C–O bond. At last, the SCRF calculations confirm that the solvent effect is preferable to the S_N2(C) reaction.     

自由基-分子反应:F+Propene(CH2CHCH3)的从头算研究

The radical-molecule reaction F+propene (CH2CHCH3) was studied in detail by using the Becke's three parameter Lee-Yang-Parr-B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) and coupled cluster with single, double, and triple excitationsCCSD(T)/6-311+G(2d,2p). It is shown that F+propene reaction mainly occurs through complex-formation mechanism: F attacks the double bond of propene leading to the formation of complex 1 and complex 2. As the two radical complexes are metastable, they can quickly dissociate to H+C3H5F, CH3+C2H3F and HF+C3H5. Based on the ab initio calculations, the CH3+C2H3F is the main channel, and the H elimination and HF forming channels also provide some contribution to products. The calculated values are in good agreement with the recently reported experimental results.

Density functional study of the conformations and intramolecular proton transfer in thiohydroxamic acids

The conformational preferences of thiohydroxamic acids (N-hydroxythioamides) are investigated by the density functional B3LYP/6-311++G(3df,3pd)//B3LYP/6-31G(d) method in this work. Unlike hydroxamic acids, the thione and thiol forms are found to be equally stable in the gas phase, and the reaction pathways for the interconversion between the thione and thiol forms have been deduced to involve rotation about the C[double bond, length as m-dash]N bond of the thiol tautomer in the rate-determining step. The effect of aqueous solvation on the reactions has also been investigated. It is found that inclusion of a few explicit water molecules in an implicit solvent calculation is necessary in order to accurately account for hydrogen bonding effects. Thiohydroxamic acids, like their hydroxamic acid analogues, are found to be N-acids, both in the gas phase and in aqueous solution.     

Radical-molecule reactions for aromatic growth: a case study for cyclopentadienyl and acenaphthylene

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon growth from acenaphthylene and cyclopentadienyl was investigated by using the B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) and BH&HLYP/6-31G(d,p) levels of theory as well as transition state theory. The reaction pathways of cyclopentadienyl bearing hydrocarbons are different from those without these moieties and cannot be adequately accounted for by the existing acetylene addition and aryl-aryl addition mechanisms. The reaction mechanisms identified in this paper lead to the formation of fluoranthene, aceanthrylene, and acephenanthrylene. Rate constants of the radical-molecule addition and subsequent intramolecular addition steps predict that the 1,2 double bond in acenaphthylene is much more reactive than the 3,4 and 4,5 double bonds. Fluoranthene is the most abundant product produced at high temperatures and the yield of acephenanthrylene is bigger than that of aceanthrylene. The computational results are discussed in light of pyrolysis experiments on CPD-indene and CPD-acenaphthylene mixtures conducted by Prof. Mulholland's research group reported in a previous work.

Theoretical study on the potential energy surface of SiC2O

The DFT/B3LYP/6-311G(d) and CCSD(T)/6-311G(2df) (single-point) methods have been used to investigate the potential energy surface of SiC₂O. A total of 11 isomers are located, which are connected by 13 interconversion transition states. The global minimum is the linear SiCCO with ¹Σ⁺ electronic state whose structure can be described as cumulenic double bonding form :SiCCÖ:. The isomer O-cSiCC possessing SiCC three-membered ring with an exocyclic OSi bond also shows considerable stability. Both SiCCO and O-cSiCC are kinetically stable towards isomerization and dissociation. Further calculations are performed at the CCSD(T)/6-311G(2df)//QCISD/6-311G(2d) level to obtain more reliable energies, geometrical parameters, harmonic vibrational frequencies and infrared intensities of the isomers. The energies and geometrical parameters are also calculated with the CASPT2//CASSCF methods.
