Ab initio Study of Mechanism of Forming a Germanic Hetero-Polycyclic Compound between Germylidene (H2C=Ge:) and Acetone

The mechanism of the cycloaddition reaction of forming a germanic hetero‐polycyclic compound between singlet germylidene (R1) and acetone (R2) has been investigated with CCSD(T)//MP2/6‐31G* method. From the surface energy profile, it can be predicted that the dominant reaction pathway for this reaction consists of three steps: (1) the two reactants (R1, R2) firstly form a twisted four‐membered ring intermediate (INT2); (2) the intermediate (INT2) reacts further with acetone (R2) to give another intermediate (INT4); (3) intermediate (INT4) isomerizes to a hetero‐polycyclic germanic compound (P4) via a transition state TS4. The presented rule of this reaction: the [2+2] cycloaddition effect between the π orbital of germylidene and the π orbital of π‐bonded compounds leads to the formation of four‐membered ring intermediate (INT2). The 4p unoccupied orbital and the lone‐pair sp electrons of Ge in the four‐membered ring intermediate (INT2) react with the π orbital and the antibonding π* orbital of π‐bonded compounds, respectively, forming the π→p and sp→ π* cyclic donor‐acceptor bonds, resulting in the generation of a stable germanic hetero‐polycyclic compound (P4).     

Ab Initio Study on the Mechanism of Cycloaddition Reaction between Silylene Carbene （H_2Si=C：） and Acetone

The mechanism of cycloaddition reaction between singlet silylene carbene and acetone has been investigated with CCSD(T)//MP2/6-31G method. From the potential energy profile, it can be predicted that the reaction has two competitive dominant reaction pathways. One consists of two steps: (1) the two reactants (R1, R2) firstly form a four-membered ring intermediate (INT4) through a barrier-free exothermic reaction of 585.9 kJ/mol; (2) Then intermediate (INT4) isomerizes to CH3-transfer product (P4.1) via a transition state (TS4.1) with energy barrier of 5.3 kJ/mol. The other is as follows: on the basis of intermediate (INT4) created between R1 and R2, intermediate (INT4) further reacts with acetone (R2) to form the intermediate (INT5) through a barrier-free exothermic reaction of 166.3 kJ/mol; Then, intermediate (INT5) isomerizes to a silicic bis-heterocyclic product (P5) via a transition state (TS5), for which the barrier is 54.9 kJ/mol. The presented rule of this reaction: the [2+2] cycloaddition effect between the π orbital of silylene carbene and the π orbital of π-bonded compounds leads to the formation of a four-membered ring intermediate (INT4); The unsaturated property of C atom from carbene in the four-membered ring intermediate (INT4) results in the generation of CH3-transfer product (P4.1) and silicic bis-heterocyclic compound (P5).

Ab initio Study of Mechanism of Forming Germanic Hetero-Polycyclic Compound between Germylene Carbene (H2Ge=C: ) and Formaldehyde

The mechanism of the cycloaddition reaction of forming germanic hetero‐polycyclic compound between singlet germylene carbene and formaldehyde has been investigated with MP2/6‐31G* method, including geometry optimization and vibrational analysis for the involved stationary points on the potential energy surface. The energies of the different conformations are calculated by CCSD (T)//MP2/6‐31G* method. From the potential energy profile, we predict that the cycloaddition reaction of forming germanic hetero‐polycyclic compound between singlet germylene carbene and formaldehyde has two competitive dominant reaction pathways. First dominant reaction pathway consists of four steps: (1) the two reactants (R1, R2) first form an intermediate (INT1) through a barrier‐free exothermic reaction of 117.5 kJ/mol; (2) intermediate (INT1) then isomerizes to a four‐membered ring compound (P2) via a transition state (TS2) with an energy barrier of 25.4 kJ/mol; (3) four‐membered ring compound (P2) further reacts with formaldehyde (R2) to form an intermediate (INT3), which is also a barrier‐free exothermic reaction of 19.6 kJ/mol; (4) intermediate (INT3) isomerizes to a germanic bis‐heterocyclic product (P3) via a transition state (TS3) with an energy barrier of 5.8 kJ/mol. Second dominant reaction pathway is as follows: (1) the two reactants (R1, R2) first form an intermediate (INT4) through a barrier‐free exothermic reaction of 197.3 kJ/mol; (2) intermediate (INT4) further reacts with formaldehyde (R2) to form an intermediate (INT5), which is also a barrier‐free exothermic reaction of 141.3 kJ/mol; (3) intermediate (INT5) then isomerizes to a germanic bis‐heterocyclic product (P5) via a transition state (TS5) with an energy barrier of 36.7 kJ/mol.     

Theoretical investigation of the formation of the tropylium ion from the toluene radical cation

The formation of the tropylium ion, C₇H₇⁺, in the mass spectrum of toluene is a chemical process that has been extensively studied. There is, however, still debate as to the structure of the moieties and the reaction pathways involved. This work presents the first computationally complete reaction schemes for the formation of tropylium from toluene to be reported. The calculations were performed at the HF/6‐31G(d, p) and the DFT/B3LYP/6‐311++G(2d) levels of theory using Gaussian 03W. The previously unreported optimized structures and energies for a transition state and an intermediate in one scheme and a transition state in the other have been determined. These results are consistent with the previously reported literature and the available experimental data. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2009     

Theoretical study on the mechanism of the gas-phase reaction of diborane(3) anion with carbon disulfide

The complex potential energy surface of the gas-phase reaction of HB(H)BH- with CS2 to give three low-lying products [B2H3S]- + CS, [BH2CS]- + HBS, and [BH3CS] + BS-, involving nine [B2H3CS2]- isomers and 12 transition states, has been investigated at the CCSD(T)/6-311++G(d,p)/B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) level. Our calculations are in harmony with the recent experimental and theoretical results, and reveal some new bonding and kinetic features of this reaction system. Our theoretical results may help the further identification of the products [BH2CS]- + HBS and [BH3CS] + BS- and may provide useful information on the chemical behaviors of other electron-deficient boron hydride anions.     

Theoretical study on the mechanism of the (3)CH(2) + NO(2) reaction

The complex doublet potential energy surface of the CH(2)NO(2) system is investigated at the B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) and QCISD(T)/6-311G(d,p) (single-point) levels to explore the possible reaction mechanism of the triplet CH(2) radical with NO(2). Forty minimum isomers and 92 transition states are located. For the most relevant reaction pathways, the high-level QCISD(T)/6-311 + G(2df,2p) calculations are performed at the B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) geometries to accurately determine the energetics. It is found that the top attack of the (3)CH(2) radical at the N-atom of NO(2) first forms the branched open-chain H(2)CNO(2) a with no barrier followed by ring closure to give the three-membered ring isomer cC(H(2))ON-O b that will almost barrierlessly dissociate to product P(1) H(2)CO + NO. The lesser followed competitive channel is the 1,3-H-shift of a to isomer HCN(O)OH c, which will take subsequent cis-trans conversion and dissociation to P(2) OH + HCNO. The direct O-extrusion of a to product P(3) (3)O + H(2)CNO is even much less feasible. Because the intermediates and transition states involved in the above three channels are all lower than the reactants in energy, the title reaction is expected to be rapid, as is consistent with the measured large rate constant at room temperature. Formation of the other very low-lying dissociation products such as NH(2) + CO(2), OH + HNCO and H(2)O + NCO seems unlikely due to kinetic hindrance. Moreover, the (3)CH(2) attack at the end-O of NO(2) is a barrier-consumed process, and thus may only be of significance at very high temperatures. The reaction of the singlet CH(2) with NO(2) is also briefly discussed. Our calculated results may assist in future laboratory identification of the products of the title reaction.     

Theoretical study of mechanism of cycloaddition reaction between dimethyl‐silylene carbene [(CH3)2SiC:] and formaldehyde

The mechanism of the cycloaddition reaction between singlet dimethyl‐silylene carbene and formaldehyde has been investigated with MP2/6‐31G* method, including geometry optimization and vibrational analysis for the involved stationary points on the potential energy surface. The energies of the different conformations are calculated by zero‐point energy and CCSD (T)//MP2/6‐31G* method. From the potential energy profile, it can be predicted that the reaction has two competitive dominant reaction pathways. The main products of first dominant reaction pathway are a planar four‐membered ring product (P4) and its H‐transfer product (P4.2). The main product of second dominant reaction pathway is a silicic bis‐heterocyclic compound (P5). © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2011     

A barrier‐free atomic radical‐molecule reaction: N (2D) NO2 (2A1) mechanistic study

The reaction of N (²D) radical with NO₂ molecule has been studied theoretically using density functional theory and ab initio quantum chemistry method. Singlet electronic state [N₂O₂] potential energy surfaces (PES) are calculated at the CCSD(T)/aug‐cc‐pVDZ//B3LYP/6‐311+G(d) + ZPE and G3B3 levels of theory. All the involved transition states for generation of (2NO) and (O₂ + N₂) lie much lower than the reactants. Thus, the novel reaction N + NO₂ can proceed effectively even at low temperatures and it is expected to play a role in both combustion and interstellar processes. On the basis of the analysis of the kinetics of all pathways through which the reactions proceed, we expect that the competitive power of reaction pathways may vary with experimental conditions for the title reaction. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

N-甲硝胺异构化和分解反应机理和动力学的理论研究

The complex potential energy surface and reaction mechanisms for the unimolecular isomerization and decomposition of methyl-nitramine (CH3NHNO2) were theoretically probed at the QCISD(T)/6-311+G*//B3LYP/6-311+G* level of theory. The results demonstrated that there are four low-lying energy channels: (i) the NN bond fission pathway; (ii) a sequence of isomerization reactions via CH3NN(OH)O; (IS2a); (iii) the HONO elimination pathway; (iv) the isomerization and the dissociation reactions via CH3NHONO (IS3). The rate constants of each initial step (rate-determining step) for these channels were calculated using the canonical transition state theory. The Arrhenius expressions of the channels over the temperature range 298-2000 K are k6(T)=1014:8e-46:0=RT , k7(T)=1013:7e-42:1=RT , k8(T)=1013:6e-51:8=RT and k9(T)=1015:6e-54:3=RT s-1, respectively. The calculated overall rate constants is 6.9￡10-4 at 543 K, which is in good agreement with the experimental data. Based on the analysis of the rate constants, the dominant pathway is the isomerization reaction to form CH3NN(OH)O at low temperatures, while the NN bond fission and the isomerization reaction to produce CH3NHONO are expected to be competitive with the isomerization reaction to form CH3NN(OH)O at high temperatures.

Ab initio Mechanism Study on the Reaction of Chlorine Atom with Formic Acid

The potential energy surface(PES) for the reaction of Cl atom with HCOOH is predicted using ab initio molecular orbital calculation methods at UQCIDS(T,full)6-311 G(3df,2p)//UMP2(full)/6-311 G(d,P) level of theory with zero-point vibrational energy (ZPVE) correction.The calculated results show that the reaction mechanism of Cl atom with formic acid is a C-site hydrogen abstraction reaction from cis-HOC(H)O molecule by Cl atom with a 3.73kJ/mol reaction barrier height,leading to the formation of cis-HOCO radical which will reacts with Cl atom or other molecules in such a reaction system.Because the reaction barrier height of O-site hydrogen abstraction reaction from cis-HOC(H)O molecule by Cl atom which leads to the formation of HCO2 radical is 67.95kJ/mol,it is a secondary reaction channel in experiment,This is in good agreement with the prediction based on the previous experiments.     

理论研究8-氮杂鸟嘌呤自由基阳离子脱质子反应

由于8-氮杂鸟嘌呤（8-AG）的氧化还原电势比鸟嘌呤（G）更低,所以单电子氧化嵌有8-AG的DNA后,空穴最终会被8-AG捕获形成8-氮杂鸟嘌呤自由基阳离子（8-AG^·+）.因为酸性的急剧增强,8-AG^·+一般会发生脱质子反应.在本工作中,在M06-2X/6-31+G（d）理论水平,使用显性水分子和连续溶剂化模型模拟8-AG^·+的溶剂化效应,对其脱亚氨基质子（N（1）-H）反应进行了研究.发现位于8-AG^·+中N（1）-H、O（6）、N（2）-H附近以及在O（6）水分子附近稍微远离8-AG^·+的4个水分子会对8-AG^·+脱质子反应产生重要影响,质子从8-AG^·+传递到溶液中具有方向性;最后,通过进一步在N（2）-H、N（3）、O（6）、N（7）和N（8）等位点附近添加水分子（9H₂O）得到了更加精确的8-AG^·+脱质子反应能垒（19.5 kJ/mol）.

The mechanism of a cycloaddition reaction between singlet dichloromethylene germylene and ethylene has been investigated with B3LYP/6-31G＊ method, including geometry optimization and vibrational analysis for the involved stationary points on the potential energy surface.

On the basis of the surface energy profile obtained with CCSD（T）// B3LYP/6-31G＊ method for the cycloaddition reaction between singlet dichloromethylene germylene and ethylene, it can be predicted that the dominant reaction pathway is that an intermediate INT1 is firstly formed between the two reactants through a barrier-free exothermic reaction of 61.7 kJ/mol, and the intermediate INT1 then isomerizes to an active four-membered ring product P2.1 via a transition state TS2, an intermediate INT2 and a transition state TS2.1, in which energy barriers are 57.7 and 42.2 kJ/mol, respectively.     

Theoretical study on the reactions of Nb and Nb+ with CO2 in gas phase

Density functional theory calculations have been performed to explore the potential energy surfaces of C? O bond activation in CO₂ molecule by gas‐phase Nb atom and Nb⁺ cation for better understanding the reaction mechanism of second‐row metal with CO₂.

The present results show that the mechanism is insertion‐elimination mechanism along the C? O bond activation reaction. All theoretical results not only support the existing conclusions inferred from early experiment but also complement the pathway and mechanism for this reaction. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Theoretical studies of mechanism of cycloaddition reaction between germylidene and formaldehyde

Mechanism of the cycloadditional reaction between singlet germylidene (R1) and formaldehyde (R2) has been investigated with MP2/6‐31G* method, including geometry optimization, and vibrational analysis for the involved stationary points on the potential energy surface. The energies of the different conformations are calculated by CCSD(T)//MP2/6‐31G* method. From the potential energy profile, it can be predicted that the dominant reaction pathway of the cycloadditional reaction between singlet germylidene and formaldehyde is reaction (4) , which consists of three steps: the two reactants (R1, R2) first form an intermediate INT1b through a barrier‐free exothermic reaction of 28.1 kJ/mol; this intermediate reacts further with formaldehyde (R2) to give an intermediate INT4, which is also a barrier‐free exothermic reaction of 37.2 kJ/mol; subsequently, the intermediate INT4 isomerizes to a heteropolycyclic germanic compound P4 via a transition state TS4, for which the barrier is 18.6 kJ/mol. The dominant reaction has an excellent selectivity and differs considerably from its competitive reactions in thermodynamic property and reaction rate. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
