The interaction between CH₃OH and H₂CO has been studied by abinitio method (6-311G basis set).It has been found that there are twopossible complexes:(Ⅰ)H-bond Br?nsted complex CH₃OH...OCH₂(Ⅱ)Donorscceptor Lewis complex CH₃OH...CH₂P.HF/6-311G stabilization energiesfor complex(Ⅰ)and complex(Ⅱ)are 25.1 and 17.1 kJ/mol respectively.     

CH3S自由基H迁移异构化及脱H2反应的直接动力学研究

采用密度泛函方法(MPW1PW91)在6-311G(d,p)基组水平上研究了CH₃S自由基H迁移反应CH₃S→CH₂SH (R1), 脱H₂反应CH₃S→HCS＋H₂ (R2)以及脱H₂产物HCS异构化反应HCS→CSH (R3)的微观动力学机理. 在QCISD(t)/6- 311＋＋G(d,p)//MPW1PW91/6-311G(d,p)＋ZPE水平上进行了单点能校正. 利用经典过渡态理论(TST)与变分过渡态理论(CVT)分别计算了各反应在200～2000 K温度区间内的速率常数k^TST和k^CVT, 同时获得了经小曲率隧道效应模型(SCT)校正后的速率常数k^CVT/SCT. 结果表明, 反应 R1, R2 和R3的势垒△E^≠分别为160.69, 266.61和241.63 kJ/mol, R1为反应的主通道. 低温下CH₃S比CH₂SH稳定, 高温时CH₂SH比CH₃S更稳定. 另外, 速率常数计算结果显示, 量子力学隧道效应在低温段对速率常数的计算有显著影响, 而变分效应在计算温度段内对速率常数的影响可以忽略.     

Kinetics of tritium isotope exchange between liquid pyrrole and gaseous hydrogen

The kinetics of tritium isotope exchange between liquid pyrrole and gaseous hydrogen has been studied over the temperature range of 290–303 K. The reaction was carried out in the presence of platinum black but in spite of that, it appeared to be relatively slow. The kinetics of the exchange reaction studied could be described by the simple McKay equation. The results obtained suggest that diffusion is the rate-determining step. A mechanism of exchange is proposed.     

Comment on “Freezing Point Mixtures of H216O with H217O and Those of Aqueous CD3CH2OH and CH313CH2OH Solutions”

In a recent article, Kiyosawa [J. Solution Chem. 33, 323 (2004)] reports that the freezing points of isotopic mixtures of ordinary water and ¹⁷O enriched water show an unexpectedly large linear dependence on the concentration of H₂¹⁷O. Surprisingly, the constant of proportionality to the H₂¹⁷O concentration is nearly five times larger than that of H₂¹⁸O found in earlier studies by Kiyosawa [J. Solution Chem. 20, 583 (1991)]. We show that the H₂¹⁷O result is not consistent with other data or models. For example, a recent determination of the triple point temperature dependence on isotopic composition in naturally and artificially depleted waters [White et al. in Temperature, Its Measurement and Control in Science and Industry, Vol. 7, D. C. Ripple, Ed., AIP CP 684, 221–226 (2003)] is consistent with the H₂¹⁸O and D₂O results from Kiyosawa (1991) [White and Tew in Report of the 22nd Meeting of the Consultative Committee for Thermometry, Document CCT/03-21, BIPM, Severes, France, 2003] but is inconsistent with the H₂¹⁷O results from Kiyosawa (2004). Additionally, the results from Kiyosawa (1991) are close to what would be found in ideal solutions for those isotopic forms, whereas the H₂¹⁷O proportionality from Kiyosawa (2004) is about 10 times larger than similarly predicted. One possible explanation is that the original ¹⁷O enriched water sample contained a small amount of D₂O, and the sample, if available, should be subject to isotopic analysis to help resolve these inconsistencies.     

Photoabsorption spectra of H2S, CH3SH and SO2 near the sulfur K edge

Photoabsorption spectra of the isolated sulfur containing molecules H₂S, CH₃SH and SO₂ are measured at high resolution near the sulfur K edge, using synchrotron radiation. Resonances are observed in the discrete and continuum parts of the spectra. The most intense resonances are shown to result from virtual orbital effects on the basis of comparisons with the L edge photoabsorption spectra (H₂S, SO₂), the equivalent core model (SO₂) and low-energy electron scattering measurements (H₂S, SO₂).     

Dipole moment derivatives of H2O and H2S

The dipole and quadrupole derivatives of H₂O and H₂S are calculated analytically, using the coupled Hartree—Fock method first proposed by Gerratt and Mills. The greater efficiency, of this method allows SCF wave functions very, close to the Hartree—Fock limit to be used. Agreement, with experimental data is good.     

MFI型分子膜的制备与H2S/CH4分离性能

采用二次生长法在多孔α-Al₂O₃载体上制备MFI型（ZSM-5和silicate-1）分子筛膜;通过XRD和SEM检测,证明所合成的分子筛膜为致密、交联和无取向的MFI型分子筛膜,厚度为5 μm;单组分气体渗透实验检测中,所制备样品膜的N₂渗透量均小于10^-11 mol/（m²·s·Pa）,可认为其无缺陷;同时,考察了样品分子筛膜对H₂S/CH₄混合气的分离效果,在渗透压分别为0.3和0.5 MPa时,silicate-1分子筛膜的H₂S/CH₄的分离因子分别为1.99和4.44,而ZSM-5分子筛膜的CH₄/H₂S的分离因子分别为6.71和12.85。     

A Gaussian-2 ab initio study of [C2H5S] ions: III. H2 and CH4 eliminations from CH3CHSH and CH3SCH2

Gaussian-2 ab initio calculations were performed to examine the six modes of unimolecular dissociation of cis-CH₃CHSH⁺ (1⁺), trans-CH₃CHSH⁺ (2⁺), and CH₃SCH₂⁺ (3⁺): 1⁺→CH₃⁺+trans-HCSH (1); 1⁺→CH₃+trans-HCSH⁺ (2); 1⁺→CH₄+HCS⁺ (3); 1⁺→H₂+c-CH₂CHS⁺ (4); 2⁺→H₂+CH₃CS⁺ (5); and 3⁺→H₂+c-CH₂CHS⁺ (6). Reactions (1) and (2) have endothermicities of 584 and 496 kJ mol⁻¹, respectively. Loss of CH₄ from 1⁺ (reaction (3)) proceeds through proton transfer from the S atom to the methyl group, followed by cleavage of the C–C bond. The reaction pathway has an energy barrier of 292 kJ mol⁻¹ and a transition state with a wide spectrum of nonclassical structures. Reaction (4) has a critical energy of 296 kJ mol⁻¹ and it also proceeds through the same proton transfer step as reaction (3), followed by elimination of H_2. Formation of CH₃CS⁺ from 2⁺ (reaction (5)) by loss of H₂ proceeds through protonation of the methine (CH) group, followed by dissociation of the H₂ moiety. Its energy barrier is 276 kJ mol⁻¹. On both the MP2/6-31G* and QCISD/6-31G* potential-energy surfaces, the H₂ 1,1-elimination from 3⁺ (reaction (6)) proceeds via a nonclassical intermediate resembling c-CH₃SCH₂⁺ and has a critical energy of 269 kJ mol⁻¹.     

Emission spectrum of CH3S radical

The emission spectrum of the CH₃S radical is obtained in the photolysis of CH₃SCH₃ by using a xenon resonance lamp. The emission is also obtained in the photolysis of CH₃SSCH₃ at ca. 200 nm irradiation as well as at 147.0 nm irradiation. The excitation threshold to produce CH₃S fluorescence in the photolysis of CH₃SSCH₃ is determined to be 202 ± 3 nm or 6.14 ± 0.09 eV. The ratios of electronic quenching rate to fluorescence rate of CH₃S^* with N₂, H₂, D₂ and CH₄ are determined.     

Primary yields of CH3O and CH2OH radicals resulting in the radiolysis of high purity methanol

The triethylsilane radical R₃^•Si, produced by radiolysis in an airfree methanol/silane-system, acts as a specific scavenger for the CH₃^•O and ^•CH₂OH transients with rate constants, k₁₄(R₃^•Si + CH₃^•O) = 1.1 x 10⁸ dm³ mol^-1s^-1 and k₁₅(R₃^•Si + ^•CH₂OH) = 0.7 x 10⁸ dm³ mol^-1s^-1, resulting in R₃Si—OCH₃ (triethylmethoxysilane) and R₃Si—CH₂OH (triethylsilylmethanol). By increasing the silane concentration (range: 10^-2-6 mol dm^-3 R₃SiH) the formation of the otherwise major products of methanol radiolysis, formaldehyde and glycol, is successively reduced to nil. The yield of R₃Si—CH₂OH, studied under the same conditions, passes a maximum at about 0.8 mol dm^-3 R₃SiH and then also diminishes. On the other hand, the yield of R₃Si—OCH₃ is increased correspondingly and reaches an interpolated value of G = 3.75 ± 0.1 at 4 mol dm^-3R₃SiH. This indicates that the radical CH₃^•O (G = 3.75 ± 0.1) is the primary radiolytic transient of methanol in addition to H, e^-_sol etc., but not ^•CH₂OH species. The latter one is obviously formed by the secondary reaction: CH₃^•O + CH₃OH→ CH₃OH + ^•CH₂OH.     

A quantum-mechanical study of the lone-pairs in H2O and H2S

It is shown from SCF-MO studies using localised orbitals that the angles between the lone-pairs in H₂O and H₂S are 115° and 127°, in agreement with the qualitative predictions of the Sidgwick-Powell theory.     

Collisional ionization of fast K atoms by H2S and D2S

The process K + H₂S/D₂S → HS^?/DS^? + K⁺+ H/D has been investigated for K impact energies from near threshold to ≈100 eV. Positive and negative ion energy spectra have been obtained in the forward direction. The threshold for HS^? or DS^?production corresponds to the HS^?/DS^?+ H/D limit of the ²A₁ H₂S^?/D₂S^? state at 1.55 eV.     

The fast reaction of CH2OH with O2

The rate coefficient of the reaction CH₂ + O₂OH → HO₂ + CH₂O, has been measured at 300 K by the LMR flow-tube method, and found to have the unexpectedly large value k = (2_?1⁺²) × 10^?12 cm³ molecule^?1 s^?1. This reaction, preceded by isomerization, may be an important route for the oxidation of CH₃O in the upper atmosphere.     

Laser induced chemiluminescence of BCl3/H2S mixtures

Visible chemiluminescence has been observed from mixtures of BCl₃ and H₂S when subjected to intense 10.6 μm radiation from a CO₂ laser. The spectrum of the emission is found to contain a molecular band structure superimposed on an underlying continuum. The visible fluorescence displays a strong dependence on the incident CO₂ laser power and a temporal component that is faster than gas collision times. The implications of this with regard to laser isotope separation are discussed.     

Synthesis of thiadiazabicyclane and bis-1,3,5-dithiazinane by cyclothiomethylation of aliphatic diamines with CH2O and H2S

Cyclocondensation of aliphatic diamines with CH₂O and H₂S (1:3:2 ratio, 0 °C) was carried out to give thiadiazabicyclanes and dithiadiazabicyclanes (1:6:4 ratio), which were previously difficult to synthesize. Symmetric α,ω-bis-1,3,5-dithiazinanes were synthesized at 80 °C by this reaction. The stereochemistry of thiadiazabicyclanes was assigned by ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy and by theoretical DFT calculations, and of bis-dithiazinanes by X-ray diffraction study in the solid state.     

AB initio calculations of CH3OH vibrational force constants

Reaction kinetics of multiphoton excited BCI3 with H2S

In order to investigate unique behaviors in kinetics of the reaction of multiphoton excited BCl₃ with H₂S, two kinds of experiments were performed. The first, parallel beam experiment, gives the activation energy of the primary reaction pathway considerably smaller than the bond strength. The second, focussed beam experiment, shows that the isotope selectivity increase with incident pulse energy. Both results were found different from typical multiphoton dissociation experiments, showing its own characteristics.
