Thermokinetics on the reaction of formation of Dy[(C_5H_8NS_2)_3(C_(12)H_8N_2)]

The enthalpy change of formation of the reaction of hydrous dysprosium chloride with ammonium pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate (APDC) and 1,10-phenanthroline (o-phen·H2O) in absolute ethanol at 298.15 K has been determined as (-16.12±0.05) kJ·mol-1 by a microcalor-meter. Thermodynamic parameters (the activation enthalpy, the activation entropy and the activation free energy), rate constant and kinetics parameters (the apparent activation energy, the pre-exponential constant and the reaction order) of the reaction have also been calculated. The enthalpy change of the solid-phase reaction at 298.15 K has been obtained as (53.59±0.29) kJ·mol-1 by a thermochemistry cycle. The values of the enthalpy change of formation both in liquid-phase and solid-phase reaction indicated that the complex could only be synthesized in liquid-phase reaction.     

STUDY OF HETEROCYCLIC POLYMER COMPLEXES Ⅰ. POLYPHENYLQUINOXALINE-PLATINUM AND RHODIUM COMPLEXES*

Two new polyphenylquinoxaline-platinum and rhodium complexes were synthesized and iden-tified by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Their catalytic properties on hydrosilylation and hy-drogenation of olefines have been investigated. It was found that these polymer complexes possessedhigh selective catalytic activities, and were easily recoverable after each reaction and could berepeatedly used for more than 10 times while maintaining the same effectiveness.     

THEORETICAL STUDY ON THE 1,4-CYCLO-ADDITION REACTION BETWEEN SINGLET OXYGEN (~(1)O_(2)) AND IMIDAZOLE

Quantum chemical ab initio method has been used to study the cycloaddition reaction between singlet oxygen and imidazole theoretically. The intermediate product, an endoper-oxide, of which the structure has not yet been found experimentally was optimized by using energy gradient method. The transition state (TS) structure of this reaction was also located on the potential energy surface and characterized. From the structural features of the TS, e.g. the transition vector of the imaginary vibration mode, as well as the interaction of orbitals, it is realized that this cycloaddition is a synchronous concerted reaction. The activation barriers calculated are 69.5 kJ·mol (forward reaction) and 140.4 kJ·mol-1 (backward reaction) respectively (6-31G results).     

CRYSTAL AND MOLECULAR STRUCTURE OF {Fe_6Mo_2S_8(S-t-Bu)_6(OMe)_3}(Et_4N)_3

<正> Introduction. The title compound has been synthesized by reaction of {(SR)_2FeMoS_4}2-with {Fe_4(SR) 10}~2- (R=t-Bu) in methanol. It is interesting to note that the complex, which involves two {Fe_3MoS_4}cubane-like clusters, is generally regarded as the best model compound for molybdenum center of nitrogenase. The synthesis and property of {Fe_6Mo_2S_8(S-tBu)_6(OMe)_3}~3- have been discribed. Although it has previously been noted that the structure of this complex is similar to its tungsten analog, the detail structural report of the title compound has not yet been given.     

8-羟基喹啉单体及二聚体质子转移反应的理论研究

Density functional theory （DFT） of quantum chemistry method was employed to investigate proton transfer reactions of 8-hydroxyquinoline （8-HQ） monomers and dimers. By studying the potential energy curves of the isomerization, the most possible reaction pathway was found. The total energy of 8-hydroxyquinoline was lower than that of quinolin-8（1H）-one, whereas the order was reversed in dimers. The findings explained the contrary experimental phenomena. The minimum reaction barrier of intramolecular proton transfer was 47.3 kJ/mol while that in dimer was only 25.7 kJ/mol. Hence it is obvious that proton transfer reactions of 8-HQ monomer have a considerable rate but it is easier to proceed for 8-HQ dimer than monomers. It implied that the hydrogen bond played an important role in depressing the activation energy of reaction. The mechanism of the tautomerization was discussed on the basis of theoretical results.     

Exact quantum and TST-CEQ study of the collinear reaction O+HCl

Exact quantum calculations of reaction probabilities have been carried out using hyperspherical coordinates for the collinearr reaction O+HCl(v <1) -OH(v'<1)+Cl . A generalized LEPS potential energy surface with a barrier height of 8.12 kcal/mol has been used in the calculations. According to the calculated results we found that (1) the reaction probability oscillates with energy, (2) the reaction probability shows vibrational adiabaticity, although it is poorer than that for symmetric reaction Cl + HC1. The analysis of resonance has also been done. The reaction rate constants and average cross sections have been calculated by TST-CEQ method. The rate constants are in agreement with that by QCT and smaller than the experimental one. Finally, the threshold has been estimated and is in good agreement with that of the literature.     

Comparison between hydrogen-transfer and fluoro-transfer reactions on the microcanonical unimolecular rate constants

The microcanonical rate constants for the hydrogen-transfer process of HCCF (reaction 7) and the fluoro-transfer process of FCCF (reaction 8) are carried out with tunneling correction and curvature correction. The results show that the tunneling effects and curvature effects on the rate constant of reaction 7 is quite different from that of reaction 8. The rate constants for different rotational states are also studied for these reactions.     

SYNTHESIS OF 1-SUBSTITUTED-BENZENESULFO-NYL-3-(4'''',6''''-DISUBSTITUTED-s-TRIAZIN.2''''-YL)-1,3,2-DIAZAPHOSPHOLIDINES AND THEIR STRUCTURAL ANALYSES

The reaction of N-substituted-benzenesulfonyl-N'-(4,6-disubstituted-s-triazin-2-yl)-ethylene diamines with tri(dialkylamine)phosphine has been studied and the cyclic products have been obtained by one-pot reaction. It was found from ~1H NMR and ~(13)C NMR analyses that the single bond rotation between the nitrogen atom 3 in the 1,3,2-diazaphospholidines and the carbon atom 2 in the s-triazine was hindered at room temperature, which was further confirmed by X-ray diffraction results. The most stable conformation of the phosphorous heterocycle is envelope-form. From the bond length and the hybridization of the nitrogen atom outside the ring, it was deduced that there was a certain contribution of dπ-pπ bond between P and N atoms.     

STUDY ON POLYMER—Ru-Co—BIMETALLIC COMPLEXES CATALYSTS Ⅰ. SYNTHESIS OF CATALYSTS AND THEIR USE FOR THE HYDROFORMYLATION

Six kinds of polymer ligands, supported on SiO_2, containing coordinating atoms P, S and N respectively, have been synthesized. The Ru(Ⅲ)-Co(Ⅱ) bimetallic complexes of these polymer ligands have been obtained and examined as catalysts for the hydroformylation of cyclohexene. The effects of reaction temperature, pressure and Co/Ru ratio etc. on the activities of catalysts were investigated in detail. The catalysts are all polymer-noncarbonyl-metal complexes, easily to be prepared, active and stable. From the experimental results it can be suggested that under reaction conditions such polymer-noncarbonyl-metal complexes convert "in situ" to polymer-carbonyl-metal complexes, thus become active catalysts. The course of this conversion is supposed as a preliminary approach.     

Effect of diluent and reaction parameter on selective oxidation of propane over MoVTeNb catalyst using nanoflow catalytic reactor

The selective oxidation of propane to acrylic acid over an MoVTeNb mixed oxide catalyst, dried and calcined before reaction has been studied using high-throughput instrumentation, which is called nanoflow catalytic reactor. The effects of catalyst dilution on the catalytic performance of the MoVTeNb mixed oxide catalyst in selective oxidation of propane to acrylic acid were also investigated. The effects of some reaction parameters, such as gas hourly space velocity （GHSV） and reaction temperature, for selective oxidation of propane to acrylic acid over diluted MoVTeNb catalyst have also been studied. The configuration of the nanoflow is shown to be suitable for screen catalytic performance, and its operating conditions were mimicked closely to conventional laboratory as well as to industrial conditions. The results obtained provided very good reproducibility and it showed that preparation methods as well as reaction parameters can play significant roles in catalytic performance of these catalysts.     

Epoxidation of styrene catalyzed by manganese (Ⅲ) porphyrins supported on chloromethylated polystyrene resin bearing crown ether groups

Metalloporphyrins and crown ether groups were simultaneously supported on chloromethylated polystyrene resin to produce a series of polymer-supported catalysts. The synthesis of these catalysts has been studied. The influence of pH, concentrations of NaOCl and phase transfer catalysts on the epoxidation of styrene catalyzed by these catalysts has also been investigated. The experimental results show that manganese(Ⅲ) porphyrin bound to chloromethylated polystyrene which bears crown ether groups is effective catalysts for the epoxidation of styrene by sodium hypochlorite. The introduction of crown ether groups increases the catalytic efficiency of supported metalloporphyrins. The kinetics of epoxidation catalyzed by supported manganese(Ⅲ) porphyrins obeys Michaelis-Menten equation-the characteristic of enzyme-driven reaction.     

Complexations of tweezer molecule (2s, 8s)-bis(2-naphthoyl aminomethyl)-1,5,9-triazabicyclo[4,4,0]dec- 5-ene with organic anions

1H NMR studies have been made on the effects of complexation of tweezer molecule (2s, 8s)-bis(2-naphthoyl aminomethyl)-1,5,9-triazabicyclo[4,4,0] dec-5-ene chloride with the salts of p-nitrobenzoate, p-methoxybenzoate and (L)-N-acetyltryptophan. The stability constants of these complexes nave been determined in CDCl3. The results show that the tweezer molecule and aromatic carboxylates are self-associated by hydrogen bonding, electrostatic interaction and aromatic π-π stacking interaction, forming sandwich supramolecular complexes.     

FISSION TRACK AGES AND UPLIFT RATES OF THE SOUTH XIZANG (TIBET) REGION

The geological ages of Lhasa, Kangmar and Gaowu rock bodies of Xizang (Tibet) have been determined by fission track method. The results are: 25.5—27.2, 10.7—11.5, 8.06—9.19 Ma respectively. It is found that the fission track (FT) age of apatite increases with the elevation of sample. Calculated by the ages-topographic altitude method, the uplift rates of the above three rock bodies are 0.25, 0.45, and 0.49 mm/a respectively. On the basis of the fission track age and the published isotopic age data, the uplift rates of other regions have been calculated by the mineral pair-blocking temperatures method. The lowest is 0.08 mm/a and the highest 2.4 mm/a. We found that the uplift rates of different regions in the same period are distinet, and the uplift rates of different geological times in the same region also are not alike. This situation shows that the Xizang region has a complex geological and unroofing history due to the collision of the India and Eurasian plates.     

Kinetic calculation for the reaction of H with Si_2H_6 using the variational transition state theory

The reaction of disilane with atomic hydrogen has been studied. This reaction involves both substitution and abstraction. Calculations show that the hydrogen abstraction is the strongest competing channel. The canonical variational transition state theory with a small curvature tunneling correction (SCT) has been used for the kinetic calculation. The theoretical results are in good agreement with the available experimental data. Comparing the reactions of atomic hydrogen with disilane and silane, it can be seen that the reactivity of the Si-H bond is higher in Si2H6than that in SiH4.     

EFFECT OF PELLETING PRESSURES ON GLOBAL REACTION RATES OF METHANOL SYNTHESIS OVER Cu-BASED CATALYST

The catalyst pore structure parameters have a great influence on theintraparticle diffusion which mainly determines the global reaction rates.In thispaper,the effects of pelleting pressures on the global reaction rates were studiedby the chemical reaction engineering theory.As a research system the Cu-basedmethanol synthesis catalysts with different pore structure parameters(specificsurface,pore volume,pore radius distribution,porosity,particle density,tor-tuosity factor etc.)have been prepared by changing the catalyst pelleting pres-sures.Based on the parallel intrinsic reaction rate equations of CO and CO_2 hy-drogenation on C301 Cu-based methanol synthesis catalyst and on the assump-tion that the intrinsic reaction rate constants per unit internal surface are thesame,the diffusion-reaction equations and parallel path cross-linked pore modelwere used for modeling the behavior of the catalyst pellet under industrial con-ditions.The models of global reaction rates had been established for CO andCO_2 hyd

The molecule with Th symmetry is rare.A dodecahedrane-like molecule C12H12B8 with uncommon Th symmetry has been reported here.Density functional calculations and minimization techniques have been employed to characterize its structural and electronic properties.Its geometry,electronic properties,vibrational frequencies and heat of formation have been calculated at the B3LYP/6-311+G(d,p) level of theory.The absence of imaginary vibrational frequency confirms that it corresponds to true minimum on the potential energy hypersurface.Its vibrational bands in the IR intensity have been discussed and compared with future experimental identification.At the B3LYP/6-311+G(d,p) level,the heat of formation has been calculated to be 720.9 kJ mol-1 using the isodesmic reaction.According to this value,it is a potential high energy density molecule.     

GRAFT COPOLYMERIZATION OF ACRYLAMIDE ONTO POLY(N-PARA-TOLYLACRYLAMIDE) FILMS INITIATED BY CERIC ION

Functional monomers having phenylcarbamoyl and p-tolylcarbamoyl were synthesized. Binary initiation system consisted of Ce~(4+) and these functional monomers could initiate acrylamide polymerization. It was found that acrylamide could graft copolymerize onto macromolecules having these functional monomers units. The formation of graft copolymer has been verified by its percentage of water absorption, contact angle with water, XPS and SEM photographs. The reaction mechanism was proposed and the main reactive site of graft ocpolymerization initiated by Ce~(4+) would take place predominantly at the functional pendant group.     

PHOTOCHEMISTRY OF HYPOCRELLIN A (Ⅶ)——PHOTO-INDUCED ONE-ELECTRON REDUCTION OF HYPOCRELLIN PIGMENTS

The photo-induced one-electron reduction of hypocrellin A (abbreviated as HA) and hy-pocrellin B (abbreviated as HB) in the presence of cysteine or ascorbic acid has been studied in this paper. The semiquinone radical anions of HA and HB obtained from the photo-reduction of HA and HB respectively, and the following protonation and disproportionation of these radical anions were detected via the ESR and UV-Vis spectra. Through comparison of their UV-Vis spectra with those of the chemically synthesized compounds of similar structures, it has been suggested that the metastable products formed after the acceptance of net two electrons and two protons in the photoreduction of HA and HB were tetrahydroxyl-per-ylene derivatives.     

Dynamics and mode-selected reaction of NCO+H_2→HNCO+H

The reaction path of the reaction NCO+H2→HNCO + H has been traced by Fukui's theory and the ab initio method. On this basis, the dynamical properties along the reaction path, canonical variational theory (CVT) rate constants and vibrational-mode-selected rate constants have been computed. The results show that the effect of the electron correlation energy on the activation barrier is large, and tiros the correction by MP4 method is effective; the results also show that the recrossing and tunneling effects exist, and thus the corrections by the variational transition state theory (VTST) and the small curvature (SC) approximation method are also effective. In the reaction, the coupling and energy transfer between mode 8(7) and reaction path are strong, so the rate is effectively enhanced while these modes, especially H2 stretching, are vibrationally excited.
