气体再燃低NOx燃烧中NO与NHi的反应机理研究

采用量子化学密度泛函理论(DFT)对NO与NH_i自由基的反应机理进行了研究,并结合经典过渡态理论对各反应速率常数进行了计算。结果表明,NO与NH₂自由基的反应体系可通过六个反应通道形成N₂+H₂O、N₂O+H₂和N₂H+OH。从能量变化和反应速率两方面考虑,产物N₂+H₂O最容易生成,其最佳反应通道为NO+NH₂→→N₂+H₂O;NO与NH自由基的反应体系可通过七个反应通道形成N₂+OH、N₂O+H和N₂H+O;其中,N₂+OH最容易生成,最佳反应通道为NO+NH→→N₂+OH。比较发现, NH比NH₂自由基更易与NO发生反应生成N₂。因此,在实际运行中改变操作条件,实现NH₂等向NH方向转化,有利于NO_x的还原。     

煤炭解耦燃烧过程N迁移与转化Ⅱ:单组分气相化学反应实验

在理想平推流反应器中进行了模拟热解气对模拟烟气中NO、N₂O的还原实验研究,考察了反应温度、过剩空气系数λ、热解气中CH₄、CO、H₂、NH₃浓度、烟气中NO、N₂O浓度变化对NO、N₂O出口浓度的影响。实验结果表明,当模拟热解气仅含其中一种气体时,在反应温度973~1 223 K时热解气中CH₄、CO、H₂基本不与NO发生反应,当λ小于或等于1.0时可降低N₂O浓度0%~30%;热解气中NH₃可降低NO 10%~60%,但NH₃不与N₂O发生反应。     

N2O在焦炭表面异相生成和分解机理的密度泛函理论研究

选用合理简化的焦炭模型,对煤焦燃烧过程中N₂O的异相生成和分解机理进行了分子水平上的研究。采用UB3LYP/6-31G(d)密度泛函理论方法优化得到了反应路径上反应物、产物、中间体和过渡态的几何构型和各中间反应的活化能和反应焓变。NO与其预先吸附在焦炭表面解离生成的表面氮组分反应生成N₂O的路径有两个,需要克服的势垒分别为69.3kJ/mol和200.0kJ/mol;NO亦可直接与焦炭中的吡啶氮结合释放出N₂O,该反应路径所需克服的最大势垒为418.0kJ/mol。N₂O可在焦炭表面分解释放出N₂,异相分解反应为一步反应,计算所得活化能为100.8kJ/mol。N₂O的异相生成和异相分解反应均为放热反应。采用经典过渡态理论计算得到了各路径中速率控制步骤的反应速率常数。低温条件下,N₂O的异相分解反应速率略低于其异相生成速率,随着温度的升高,两者逐渐接近,说明高温条件有利于N₂O的异相分解。     

煤炭解耦燃烧过程N迁移与转化Ⅲ:多组分气相化学反应实验

在理想平推流反应器中进行了模拟热解气对模拟烟气中NO、N₂O的还原实验研究,考察了反应温度、过剩空气系数,模拟热解气中CH₄、CO、H₂、NH₃入口浓度与模拟烟气中NO、N₂O入口浓度对NO、N₂O与总氮转化率的影响。结果表明,向NH₃添加可燃气体CO、H₂、CH₄可使NO还原窗口向低温方向移动150~200 K,该温度窗口为1 073~1 223 K;但NH₃-CO-H₂-CH₄-O₂体系对NO、N₂O的还原分解作用依赖于体系的O₂浓度,仅在富燃料情形(过剩空气系数λ为0.6)下可分别达60.6%、100%的NO、N₂O脱除率;在反应温度1 073~1 223 K及过剩空气系数λ为0.6条件下,较高的热解气CH₄、CO、H₂浓度可增加NO排放,但有利于还原N₂O;增加NH₃入口浓度可增加NO分解率。     

氧化/还原预处理对Cu2O/AC催化甲醇氧化羰基化的影响

将醋酸铜热解制备的Cu₂O/AC(活性炭)催化剂,在氧化(O₂/N₂)和还原(H₂/N₂、CO/N₂)气氛下进行预处理。350 ℃下预处理4 h,氧化气氛中Cu₂O完全被氧化为CuO,还原气氛中Cu₂O被还原为单质铜。经CO/N₂预处理的催化剂表面Cu⁰分散性好,催化活性显著升高。在常压固定床微型反应装置上测试,在140 ℃的反应温度下,碳酸二甲酯的时空收率和选择性分别达到了261.9 mg/(g·h)和74.7%。反应后,还原气氛(H₂/N₂、CO/N₂)预处理的催化剂与Cu₂O/AC催化剂中铜物种价态组成趋于一致,催化活性亦趋于一致。关联反应前后催化剂表面铜物种的变化和催化活性的差异,可以认为Cu⁰具有较高的初始催化活性,Cu₂O活性和价态均较为稳定,CuO活性较低。     

Adsorption of nitrous oxide on the(6,0) magnesium oxide nanotube

Nitrous oxide adsorption on the pristine（6,0） magnesium oxide nanotube was studied by using density functional theory calculations.We present the nature of the N₂O interaction in selected sites of the nanotube.Adsorption energies corresponding to adsorption of the N₂O on the nanotube were calculated to be in the range -11.67 to -22.21 kJ mol^-1.Our results indicate that the N₂O molecule has a weak physical adsorption on the pristine models due to weak Van der Waals interaction between the nanotubes and N₂O molecule.The important results can be useful in production of the N₂O sensors.     

水热合成Co3O4的制备参数调变及其催化分解N2O性能

以十六烷基三甲基溴化胺（CTAB）为模板剂,通过调变CTAB浓度水热合成了氧化钴前驱体,焙烧制得棒状形貌的Co₃O₄,在其表面浸渍K₂CO₃溶液制得K改性的Co₃O₄催化剂,用于N₂O分解。用X射线衍射（XRD）、N₂物理吸附（BET）、扫描电镜（SEM）、X射线光电子能谱（XPS）、H₂程序升温还原（H₂-TPR）和O₂程序升温脱附（O₂-TPD）等技术对催化剂进行了表征,考察了CTAB/钴及尿素/钴物质的量比等制备参数对Co₃O₄催化分解N₂O活性的影响。结果表明,CTAB浓度为0.05 mol/L、CTAB/钴离子物质的量比为1、尿素/钴离子物质的量比为4时,所制备的Co₃O₄催化剂具有较高的N₂O分解活性,而K改性可以进一步提升其催化性能。K改性的Co₃O₄在有氧有水气氛中400℃下进行N₂O分解反应,50 h后N₂O转化率仍保持在91%以上。     

纳米团簇Au19Pd和Au19Pt催化解离N2O

采用密度泛函理论研究Au-Pd和Au-Pt 纳米团簇催化解离N₂O. 首先根据计算得到Au₁₉Pd和Au₁₉Pt 团簇的最优构型(杂原子均位于团簇的表面). 以Au₁₉Pd催化解离N₂O为例研究催化解离的反应机理. 对此主要考虑两个反应机理, 分别是Eley-Rideal (ER)和Langmuir-Hinshelwood (LH). 第一个机理中N₂O解离的能垒是1.118 eV, 并且放热0.371 eV. N₂分子脱附后, 表面剩余的氧原子沿着ER路径消除需要克服的能垒是1.920eV, 这比反应沿着LH路径的能垒高0.251 eV. 此外根据LH机理, 氧原子在表面的吸附能是-3.203 eV, 而氧原子在表面转移所需的能垒是0.113 eV, 这表明氧原子十分容易在团簇表面转移, 从而促进氧气分子的生成. 因此, LH为最优反应路径. 为了比较Au₁₉Pd和Au₁₉Pt 对N₂O解离的活性, 根据最优的反应路径来研究Au₁₉Pt 催化解离N₂O, 得到作为铂族元素的铂和钯对N₂O的解离有催化活性, 尤其是钯. 同时, 将团簇与文献中的Au-Pd合金相比较, 得到这两种团簇对N₂O 解离有较高的活性, 尤其是Au₁₉Pd团簇. 再者, O₂的脱附不再是影响反应的主要原因, 这可以进一步提高团簇解离N₂O的活性.

O2/CO2气氛下CO2和H2O气化反应对煤及煤焦燃烧特性的影响

利用热天平对比研究了大同煤及煤焦在O₂/N₂、O₂/CO₂和O₂/H₂O/CO₂中的燃烧行为,探讨CO₂和H₂O气化反应对其富氧燃烧特性的影响。结果表明,在5%氧气浓度下,煤粉在O₂/N₂、O₂/CO₂和O₂/H₂O/CO₂中的燃烧速率按顺序依次降低。氧气浓度降低到2%,由于CO₂和H₂O气化反应的作用,煤粉在高温区的整体反应速率按顺序依次增大。当氧气浓度为5%时,煤焦在O₂/CO₂中的燃烧速率要低于O₂/N₂中的燃烧速率,但燃烧反应推迟后气化反应的参与使得煤焦在O₂/H₂O/CO₂中的整体反应速率显著升高。当氧气浓度降低到2%后,随着温度的升高,在CO₂气化反应的作用下,煤焦在O₂/CO₂中的整体反应速率逐渐高于O₂/N₂中的燃烧速率。在O₂/H₂O/CO₂中,由于H₂O在共气化中起主要作用,煤焦在O₂/H₂O/CO₂高温区的整体反应速率进一步升高。动力学分析表明,在5%氧浓度时,煤焦在O₂/N₂、O₂/CO₂和O₂/H₂O/CO₂中的表观活化能依次升高。随着氧气浓度的降低,在不同反应气氛中的表观活化能均有所下降。     

Room-Temperature-Stable Diazoalkenes by Diazo Transfer from Azides: Pyridine-Derived Diazoalkenes

Recently, stable diazoalkenes have received significant attention as a new substance class in organic chemistry. While their previous synthetic access was exclusively limited to the activation of nitrous oxide, we here establish a much more general synthetic approach utilizing a Regitz-type diazo transfer with azides. Importantly, this approach is also applicable to weakly polarized olefins such as 2-pyridine olefins. The new pyridine diazoalkenes are not accessible by the activation of nitrous oxide, allowing for a considerable extension of the scope of this only recently accessed functional group. The new diazoalkene class has properties distinct from the previously reported classes, such as photochemically triggered loss of dinitrogen affording cumulenes and not C−H insertion products. Pyridine-derived diazoalkenes represent the so far least polarized stable diazoalkene class reported.     

Synthesis of Triazenes with Nitrous Oxide

Triazenes are valuable compounds in organic chemistry and numerous applications have been reported. Furthermore, triazenes have been investigated extensively as potential antitumor drugs. Here, we describe a new method for the synthesis of triazenes. The procedure involves a reagent which is rarely used in synthetic organic chemistry: nitrous oxide (N₂O, “laughing gas”). Nitrous oxide mediates the coupling of lithium amides and organomagnesium compounds while serving as a nitrogen donor. Despite the very inert character of nitrous oxide, the reactions can be performed in solution under mild conditions. A key advantage of the new procedure is the ability to access triazenes with alkynyl and alkenyl substituents. These compounds are difficult to prepare by conventional methods because the required starting materials are unstable. Some of the new alkynyltriazenes were found to display high cytotoxicity in in vitro tests on ovarian and breast cancer cell lines.     

Synthesis of Azoimidazolium Dyes with Nitrous Oxide

A new method for the synthesis of industrially important azoimidazolium dyes is presented. The procedure is based on a reagent which is rarely used in the context of synthetic organic chemistry: nitrous oxide (“laughing gas”). N₂O is first coupled to N‐heterocyclic carbenes. Subsequent reaction with aromatic compounds through an AlCl₃‐induced C? H activation process provides azoimidazolium dyes in good yields.     

Hydrolysis of acyloxy nitroso compounds yields nitroxyl (HNO)

Nitroxyl (HNO/NO(-)), the reduced form of nitric oxide, has gained attention based on its separate chemistry and biology from nitric oxide. The inherent reactivity of HNO requires new and mechanistically unique donors for the detailed study of HNO chemistry and biology. Oxidation of cyclohexanone oxime with lead tetraacetate yields 1-nitrosocyclohexyl acetate, whereas oxidation of oximes in the presence of excess carboxylic acid gives various acyloxy nitroso compounds. These bright blue compounds exist as monomers as indicated by their infrared, proton, and carbon NMR spectra, and X-ray crystallographic analysis reveals the nitroso groups possess a "nitroxyl-like" bent configuration. Hydrolysis of these compounds produces nitrous oxide, the dimerization and dehydration product of HNO, and provides evidence for the intermediacy of HNO. Both thiols and oxidative metal complexes inhibit nitrous oxide formation. Hydrolysis of these compounds in the presence of ferric heme complexes forms ferrous nitrosyl complexes providing further evidence for the intermediacy of HNO. Kinetic analysis shows that the rate of hydrolysis depends on pH and the structure of the acyl group of the acyloxy nitroso compound. These compounds relax pre-constricted rat aortic rings similar to known HNO donors. Together, these results identify acyloxy nitroso compounds as a new class of HNO donors.     

The Chemistry of (U,Pu)O2 Dissolution in Nitric Acid

Infrared-induced reactivity of N2O on small gas-phase rhodium clusters

Far- and mid-infrared multiple photon dissociation spectroscopy has been employed to study both the structure and surface reactivity of isolated cationic rhodium clusters with surface-adsorbed nitrous oxide, Rh(n)N(2)O(+) (n = 4-8). Comparison of experimental spectra recorded using the argon atom tagging method with those calculated using density functional theory (DFT) reveals that the nitrous oxide is molecularly bound on the rhodium cluster via the terminal N-atom. Binding is thought to occur exclusively on atop sites with the rhodium clusters adopting close-packed structures. In related, but conceptually different experiments, infrared pumping of the vibrational modes corresponding with the normal modes of the adsorbed N(2)O has been observed to result in the decomposition of the N(2)O moiety and the production of oxide clusters. This cluster surface chemistry is observed for all cluster sizes studied except for n = 5. Plausible N(2)O decomposition mechanisms are given based on DFT calculations using exchange-correlation functionals. Similar experiments pumping the Rh-O stretch in Rh(n)ON(2)O(+) complexes, on which the same chemistry is observed, confirm the thermal nature of this reaction.     

A simple and sensitive method for the determination of hydroxylamine in fresh-water samples using hypochlorite followed by gas chromatography.

A new and simple method for the determination of hydroxylamine in environmental water, such as fresh rivers and lakes using hypochlorite, followed by its gas choromatographic detection, has been developed. A glass vial filled with sample water was sealed by a butyl-rubber stopper and aluminum cap without head-space, and then sodium hypochlorite solution was injected into the vial through a syringe to convert hydroxylamine to nitrous oxide. The head-space in the glass vial was prepared with 99.9% grade N2 using a gas-tight syringe. After the glass vial was shaken for a few minutes, nitrous oxide in the gas-phase was measured by a gas chromatograph with an electron-capture detector. The dissolved nitrous oxide in the liquid-phase was calculated according to the solubility formula. The proposed method was applied to the analysis of fresh-water samples taken from Iu river and Hii river, flowing into brackish Lakes Nakaumi and Shinji, respectively.

Hexafluoropropene Oxide — A Key Compound in Organofluorine Chemistry

Of the important C₃-compounds in organofluorine chemistry, namely hexafluoropropene, hexafluoroacetone and hexafluoropropene oxide, the latter is chemically the most versatile compound. Hexafluoropropene oxide provides another example of the frequently observed change in reactivity when hydrocarbon compounds are converted into their perfluorinated derivatives. The overwhelming majority of the known reactions of hexafluoropropene oxide are initiated through attack by a nucleophile. The conversion of hexafluoropropene oxide into hexafluoroacetone in the presence of Lewis acids is the basis of further development of the chemistry of this synthetic chemical. Hexafluoropropene oxide is also regarded as a convenient source of difluorocarbene. In industrial chemistry it now plays a significant part in the manufacture of high-grade organofluorine products.     

Laser spark formamide decomposition studied by FT-IR spectroscopy

High-resolution FT-IR spectroscopy was used for the analysis of the products of formamide dissociation using a high-energy Asterix laser. In the experiment, the detected products of the formamide LIDB dissociation were hydrogen cyanide, ammonia, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, hydroxylamine, and methanol. The molecular dynamics of the process was simulated with the use of a chemical model. The chemistry shared by formamide and the products of its dissociation is discussed with the respect to the formation of biomolecules.
