Interaction of gold and silver cluster cations with CH<Subscript>3</Subscript>Br: thermal and photoinduced reaction pathways

The reactions of free, size selected Au _n ⁺ (n = 1–3, 5, 7) and Ag₃ ⁺ clusters with CH₃Br as well as the photodissociation of the resulting complexes at 266 nm were studied in a radio frequency ion trap under multiple collision conditions. CH₃Br was found to interact more strongly with the gold clusters than with the silver clusters. All investigated metal clusters exhibited characteristic size dependent adsorbate coverages. Furthermore, the successive loss of methyl radicals was identified as a major thermal reaction channel of the adsorbed CH₃Br molecules. Photodissociation experiments were performed with the product complexes of the trimer clusters and revealed the strongly preferred light-induced fragmentation of Au₃Br₃ ⁺ and Ag₃Br₃ ⁺, respectively, over any other thermal reaction products. However, whereas in the case of the gold cluster complexes the bare Au₃ ⁺ was exclusively re-formed through laser irradiation, considerable photoinduced metal cluster fragmentation occurred in the case of Ag₃Br₃ ⁺.

A systematic investigation of the geometries,electronic and magnetic properties of AlnAsq (q = −1, 0, +1; n = 1–16) clusters: a DFT calculation

The geometries, electronic and magnetic properties of Al_nAs^q (q = ?1, 0, +1; n = 1–16) clusters have been investigated systematically by using an unbiased CALYPSO structure searching method and density functional theory. The lowest energy structures show that the As atom prefers to occupy the peripheral position of Al_n+1 clusters instead of the endohedral position. For cationic and neutral clusters, the structural transition from bilayer-like structure to cage-like structure is observed at cluster size n = 12, while it occurs at n = 13 for anionic clusters. The calculated detachment energies (DEs), ionisation potentials (IPs) and electronic affinities (EAs) are consistent with the available experimental and theoretical results for small clusters, indicating that the calculated lowest energy structures are reliable. Furthermore, the DE, EA and IP values for cluster size n ≥ 6 are successfully predicted. A stability analysis shows that Al₅As and Al₁₂As⁺ clusters have relatively large HOMO–LUMO energy gaps, corresponding to the magic numbers of 20 and 40 valence electrons, respectively.     

Comparative ab initio studies of small tin and lead clusters

We have performed ab initio total-energy pseudopotential calculations on neutral and negatively charged Snn and Pb_n (n = 3 ? 10) clusters. The lowest energy structures have been determined for all clusters, and the stabilities of neutral clusters were investigated by comparing their evaporation energies and stability functions. Clusters with n = 7,10 were found to be most stable while the clusters with n = 8 and Pb_s were much less stable, in agreement with features of the observed mass spectra. Calculations on Sn^?_n and Pb^?_n show that both atomic and electronic structures of a neutral cluster change substantially upon charging. The densities of states of Sn^?_n clusters reproduce the main features of the experimental photoelectron spectra. The agreement is poorer for Pb^?_n clusters where the calculations underestimate the separation between energy levels which we think is due to the larger spin-orbit splitting in Pb, which was neglected in the calculations. We found that the differences between Sn and Pb clusters cannot be completely addressed without a more complete accounting of relativistic effects. The electron affinities of Sn_n and Pb_n clusters have also been calculated and the results agree fairly well with experimental values. Finally we considered Sn^2?₄ and Pb^2?₄ clusters and related the results to the formation of Zintl anions in liquid alkali-Sn and alkali-Pb alloys.     

Lifetimes of high Rydberg states of methyl halides

The lifetimes of high Rydberg states of the methyl halides CH₃I, CH₃Br and CH₃Cl have been studied. A pulsed dye laser tuned near half the ionization energy was used, with preprogrammed field pulses, and the high Rydberg states of the compounds in selected ranges of n values were ionized after a variable delay. Plots of the electron signal versus delay yielded information about the Rydberg state lifetime. The clearest trend was found for around n = 120–160: the lifetimes of the states decreased by more than an order of magnitude from CH₃I (τ ≈12.3 μs) through CH₃Br to CH₃C1. Within the range studied, the theoretically predicted increase in lifetimes (n ⁵ or n ³) was not found, and in fact the highest group of states studied (with n > 215) exhibited for all three compounds relatively short lifetimes (≈2-3 μs), possibly due to collisional processes.     

EPR study of radiation-induced radicals in glutaric and amino acid derivatives in solid state

Gamma radiation-induced radicals of 2-methylglutaric acid (2MG), diethyl amino malonate hydrochloride (DEAMHCl), ethyl malonate monoamide have been investigated at room temperature by the electron paramagnetic resonance technique. The type of radicals formed and their room temperature stability were evaluated. Three different radicals have been detected. The free radicals formed in compounds were attributed to the HOOCCH₃?CH₂CH₂ COOH, CH₃?HCO₂CHNH₂COCH₂CH₃ HCl and NH₂COCH₂COO?HCH₃ radicals, respectively. The results were found to be in good agreement with the existing literature data and theoretical predictions conformation.     

甲胺水合离子团簇的结构模型及红外光谱研究

本文利用量子化学计算方法,研究了甲胺和水复合离子团簇[(CH₃NH₂)(H₂O)_n]⁺的几何结构、能量和红外光谱,揭示了结构生长模型、氢键作用机制和质子转移机理. 研究结果表明,在[(CH₃NH₂)(H₂O)_n]⁺团簇中,甲胺甲基上的一个氢原子转移到氨基上,形成分子内质子转移的CH₂NH₃⁺离子核心结构模型,水分子作为氢键受体,与质子化氨基NH₃⁺形成氢键.

Isomerization and dissociation of small (CH <Emphasis Type="Bold">3</Emphasis>CN) <Emphasis Type="Bold">n</Emphasis> molecular clusters: a computational study

The isomerization and evaporation processes in the neutral homogeneous (CH₃CN)_n molecular clusters (n = 2-7) have been investigated using classical molecular dynamics simulations. The evaporation rate constants and the kinetic energy release in the dissociation have been analysed as a function of the cluster size and as a function of the internal energy in the parent cluster. The competition between monomer and dimer ejections has been also carefully studied. All the dynamical properties in these dissociative processes have been discussed in relation to the static properties of the clusters involved in the dissociation and also in relation to the solid-liquid like transition which appears in these homogeneous molecular clusters.

Structures and electronic properties of Mo2nNn（n=1-5）:a density functional study

The lowest-energy structures and the electronic properties of Mo2nNn(n=1-5) clusters have been studied by using the density functional theory(DFT) simulating package DMol 3 in the generalized gradient approximation(GGA).The resulting equilibrium geometries show that the lowest-energy structures are dominated by central cores which correspond to the ground states of Mo n(n = 2,4,6,8,10) clusters and nitrogen atoms which surround these cores.The average binding energy,the adiabatic electron affinity(AEA),the vertical electron affinity(VEA),the adiabatic ionization potential(AIP) and the vertical ionization potential(VIP) of Mo2nNn(n=1-5) clusters have been estimated.The HOMO-LUMO gaps reveal that the clusters have strong chemical activities.An analysis of Mulliken charge distribution shows that charge-transfer moves from Mo atoms to N atoms and increases with cluster size.

Structure and stability of small zinc oxide clusters

The structure and stability of small neutral and positively charged zinc oxide (ZnO) _n clusters (n = 2−9) have been studied within the density functional theory. For n ≤ 7, the most stable clusters are shown to be flat rings; for n = 8, 9, the clusters are mainly three-dimensional cage structures. The energies and main channels of fragmentation of the clusters have been determined. It has been found that the fragmentation of the charged clusters with n > 6 occurs predominantly with formation of a (ZnO)₄⁺ ion, which explains the available mass spectrometric data on ionization of the zinc oxide clusters by electron impact.

Hydration-induced conformational changes in protonated 2,4-pentanedione in the gas phase

Starting with H⁺[CH₃C(O)CH₂C(O)CH₃] (denoted H⁺PD), the protonated diketone-water clusters H⁺PD(H₂O) _n (n = 1–3) have been characterized by density functional theory calculations in combination with vibrational predissociation spectroscopy to explore the conformational changes of a protonated bifunctional ion solvated by water in the gas phase. Theoretical calculations for H⁺PD revealed that the ion contains an intramolecular hydrogen bond (IHB), with two oxygen atoms bridged by the extra proton in an O—H⁺ … O form. Attachment of one water molecule to it readily ruptures this IHB, replacing the H⁺ by the H₃O⁺ moiety. Further replacement of the IHB by two water molecules occurs at n = 2 and the ?C(O)CH₂C(O)- chain is fully opened (or unfolded) after transfer of the extra proton to the water trimer at n = 3. To verify the computational findings, infrared spectroscopic measurements were performed using a vibrational predissociation ion trap spectrometer to identify cluster isomers from the signatures of hydrogen bonded and non-hydrogen bonded OH stretching spectra of H⁺PD(H₂O)_2,3 produced in a corona discharge supersonic expansion. Besides open form isomers, evidence for the formation of water-bridged structures has been found for H⁺PD(H₂O)₃ at an estimated temperature of 200 K. A detailed illustration of the unfolding steps as well as the energy profiles for the evolution of a two-water bridge isomer from the protonated H⁺PD monomer are analysed pictorially (including both stable intermediates and transition states) in the present investigation.

Evolution of structures,stabilities, and electronic properties of anionic [AunRb]− (n = 1–10) clusters: comparison with pure gold clusters

The geometric structures, stabilities, and electronic properties of small size anionic [Au_nRb]^? and Au_n+1^? (n = 1–10) clusters have been systematically investigated by using density functional theory. The optimised geometries show that the structures of [Au_nRb]^? clusters favour the three-dimensional structure at n ≥ 8. The Rb atoms tend to occupy the most highly coordinated position and form the largest probable number of bonds with gold atoms. One Au atom capped on [Au_n-1Rb]^? structures is the dominant growth pattern for n = 2–8 and Rb atom capped on Au_n^? structures for n = 9–10. The averaged atomic bonding energies, fragmentation energies, second-order difference of energies, and highest occupied molecular orbital–lowest unoccupied molecular orbital gaps exhibit a pronounced even–odd alternations phenomenon. The charges in [Au_nRb]^? clusters transfer from the Rb atoms to Au_n host. In addition, it is found that the most favourable dissociation channel of the [Au_nRb]^? clusters is to eject a Rb atom and the highest energy dissociation path is Rb^? anion ejection.     

CNDO studies of Y-Ba-Cu-O superconductors IV. The oxygen content effect

The dependence of the electronic structure of superconducting YBa₂Cu₃O _y , is investigated using a quasi-relativistic CNDO/1 molecular orbital method. Electronic structures of model clusters [Ba₈Cu₃O _n ] ^q with total chargesq=23–2n forn=11 to 14 in various Cu(1) coordination geometries are compared. The increasing oxygen content causes the electron density transfer from the central Cu(1)O(1,5) _x area to the lateral Cu(2)O(3,4)₂ sheets. The isomerization effects are important for the structures withn=12.     

Mass distribution in n—polymer stochastic aggregation and large—mass behaviour

The exact solutions of the rate equations of the n-polymer stochastic aggregation involving two types of clusters, active and passive for the kernel \dprⁿ_k=1s_(ik)(s_(ik)=i_k) and \dsumⁿ_k=1s_(ik)(s_(ik)=i_k), are obtained. The large-mass behaviours of the final mass distribution of the active and passive clusters have scaling-like forms, although the models exhibit different properties. Respectively, they have different decay exponents γ=\dfrac{2n+1}{2(n-1)} and γ=q+\dfrac{2n+1}{2(n-1)} for \dprⁿ_{k=1}s(ik)(s(ik)=ik) and γ=\dfrac 3{2(n-1)} and γ=q+\dfrac 3{2(n-1)} for \dsumⁿk=1}s(ik)(s(ik)=ik), which include exponents of two-polymer stochastic aggregation. We also find that gelation is suppressed for kernel \dprⁿk=1s(ik)(s(ik)=ik) which is different from the deterministic aggregation.}
