Multiconfiguration self-consistent wavefunctions for CH4, C2H4 and C2H6

The results of several MC SCF calculations on CH₄, C₂H₄ and C₂H₆ with minimun bases of Slater type AO's are reported. The computing method is a quadratically convergent process. Better final energies are obtained if localized MO's are used.     

Preparation and configurational isomerism of ditertiary stibine sulfides, (C6H5)(CH3)(S)SbCH2Sb(CH3)(C6H5) and [(C6H5)(CH3)(S)Sb]2(CH2)3

Asymmetric ditertiary stibine sulfides (C₆H₅)(CH₃)(S)SbCH₂Sb(CH₃)(C₆H₅) and [(C₆H₅)(CH₃)(S)Sb]₂(CH₂)₃ have been prepared. It was found that they exist as only one of two possible diastereomers in the crystalline state. However, isomerization to the other form takes place in solution, resulting in an equilibrium mixture. A possibility of configurational lability of tertiary stibine sulfide was suggested for the first time.     

Vapour-liquid equilibrium data for the systems C2H6 + N2, C2H4 + N2, C3H8 + N2, and C3H6 + N2

High pressure vapour-liquid equilibrium data for the C₂H₆ + N₂, C₂H₄ + N₂, C₃H₈ + N₂, and C₃H₆ + N₂ systems are presented. The data are obtained isothermally in the range from 200 K to 290 K. For each point of data, temperature, pressure and liquid and vapour phase mole fractions are measured.Values for the vapour phase mole fractions are calculated from the obtained pressure, temperature and liquid phase mole fractions. The calculated values are compared with the experimental results, and it is found that the average mean deviation between calculated and experimental mole fractions is less than 0.009 for the systems considered in this work.     

Reactions of C2(a 3πu) with CH4, C2H2, C2H4, C2H6, and O2 using multiphoton UV excimer laser photolysis

C₂(a ³π_u) disappearance rate constants of 1.44, 0.96, 0.0296, 0.0130 and < 10^?6(x10^?10cm³s^?1) are reported for reactions with C₂H₄, C₂H₂, O₂, C₂H₆, and CH₄, respectively at 298 K. C₂(a ³π_u) fragments are generated by multiphoton ArF excimer laser photodissociation at C₂H₂, and monitored by dye laser induced fluorescence. Arguments are presented which favor chemical reactions over the C₂(a ³π_u) → (X ¹σ⁺_g) quenching channel. C₂ + C₂H₂ represents the one possible exception to the reactive channel.     

Novel sandwich complexes of zirconium [C9H5(SiMe3)2](C5Me4R)ZrCl2 (R = CH3, CH2CH2NMe2): Synthesis and reduction behavior

Novel half-sandwich [C₉H₅(SiMe₃)₂]ZrCl₃ (3) and sandwich [C₉H₅(SiMe₃)₂](C₅Me₄R)ZrCl₂ (R = CH₃ (1), CH₂CH₂NMe₂ (2)) complexes were prepared and characterized. The reduction of 2 by Mg in THF lead to (η⁵-C₉H₅(SiMe₃)₂)[η⁵:η²(C,N)-C₅Me₄CH₂CH₂N(Me)CH₂]ZrH (7). The structure of 7 was proved by NMR spectroscopy data. Hydrolysis of 2 resulted in the binuclear complex ([C₅Me₄CH₂CH₂NMe₂]ZrCl₂)₂O (6). The crystal structures of 1 and 6 were established by X-ray diffraction analysis.     

Influence of the radical size on the Ca + ROH → CaOH + R (R=CH3, C2H5 and C3H7) reaction cross section

Absolute values of the reaction cross section, σ_R, for the title reaction family have been measured by chemiluminescence emission under beam-gas conditions. The σ_R values diminish as the radical group R increases in size, showing an important overall steric effect. These results are discussed in the light of simple models for reaction stereodynamics.     

C_2H_3与C_2H_5OH和CH_3HCO间的脱氢反应对乙醇-碳氢混合燃料燃烧过程的影响

在QCISD(T)/6-311++G(d,p)//B3LYP/6-311G(d,p)的水平下计算了乙醇及乙醇燃烧裂解产物与C2H3之间的脱氢反应机理,利用正则变分过渡态理论(CVT)结合小曲率隧道效应模型(SCT)计算400~2000 K范围内的速率,对比OH,H及CH3等自由基相似脱氢反应速率,选择2条具有较快反应速率的通道(C2H3+C2H5OH→TS1→C2H4+C2H5O和C2H3+CH3HCO→TS4→C2H4+CH3CO).将这2个反应耦合到正庚烷/乙醇混合燃料及异辛烷/乙醇混合燃料的机理中,利用CHEMKIN程序中预混火焰模型模拟混合燃料的燃烧过程并进行路径分析.对比相应的实验数据发现,改进的动力学模型对燃烧过程中C2H3路径上相近组分的预测精度有较大改善,而对C2H3路径上较远的组分丙炔(C3H4)和乙烯基乙炔(C4H4)等影响不大.     

X-ray and multinuclear NMR study of the mixed aggregate [(Ph2P(O)N(CH2Ph)CH3) · LiOC6H2-2,6-{C(CH3)3}2-4-CH3) · C7H8]2: a model for the directed metalation of phosphinamides

The addition of LiBuⁿ to a toluene solution of Ph₂P(O)N(CH₂Ph)CH₃1 and 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol 5 leads to the formation of the mixed dimer [(Ph₂P(O)N(CH₂Ph)CH₃) · LiOC₆H₂-2,6-{C(CH₃)₃}₂-4-CH₃) · C₇H₈]₂6. The single crystal X-ray structure shows that two lithium aryloxide moieties dimerize giving rise to a Li₂O₂ core in which each lithium atom is additionally coordinated to a phosphinamide 1 ligand. The multinuclear magnetic resonance study (¹H, ⁷Li, ¹³C, ³¹P) indicates that the solid-state structure is preserved in toluene solution. Complex 6 may be considered as a model for the pre-complexation step preceding the metalation of phosphinamides by an organolithium base.     

On the mechanism of the ion-molecule reaction CH3+ + CH4 = C2H5+ + H2

Experimental evidence supporting the “direct” reaction model and the “intermediate complex” model for the reaction CH₃⁺(CH₄, H₂)C₂H₅⁺ are analysed. It is shown that the evidence for the former can equally well be interpreted in terms of a proposed model of persistent complex formation and decay. The plausibility of a “direct” mechanism is discussed and is found to be poor.     

Peculiar basis set dependence of the energetics of C2S2H2 isomers. In search of adequate and affordable basis set for routine calculations

Quantum mechanical calculations using the Hartree-Fock (HF), post-Hartree-Fock {MP2 and CCSD(T)}and gradient-corrected hybrid density functional variant, B3LYP methodology in conjugation with basis sets like 6-31G*, 6-311G** and cc-pVTZ, were employed to critically probe the right quality of basis set and the appropriate level of theory that can be applied in modeling the organo-sulfur compounds. The relative stability ordering of 1,2-dithiete and dithioglyoxal reveal the delicate basis set dependence especially on ‘S’ atom. Single point calculations at the B3LYP, MP2 and CCSD(T) levels using a series of basis set ranging from double ζ quality all the way up to the quintuple ζ quality were done to illustrate the effect of electron correlation and the basis set dependency for these compounds. Basis set requirements are much higher than affordable for medium sized molecules as very slow convergence is seen even when the calculations are carried out with basis set as high as cc-pV5Z at the B3LYP and MP2 level of theories.     

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.     

Energy analysis of metal-metal bonding in [RM-MR] (M = Zn, Cd, Hg; R = CH3, SiH3, GeH3, C5H5, C5Me5)

The metal-metal bonds of the title compounds have been investigated with the help of energy decomposition analysis at the DFT/TZ2P level. In good agreement with experiment, computations yield Hg-Hg bond distance in [H₃SiHg-HgSiH₃] of 2.706 Å and Zn-Zn bond distance in [(η⁵-C₅Me₅)Zn-Zn(η⁵-C₅Me₅)] of 2.281 Å. The Cd-Cd bond distances are longer than the Hg-Hg bond distances. Bond dissociation energies (-BDE) for Zn-Zn bonds in zincocene −70.6 kcal/mol in [(η⁵-C₅H₅)₂Zn₂] and −70.3 kcal/mol in [(η⁵-C₅Me₅)₂Zn₂] are greater amongst the compounds under study. In addition, [(η⁵-C₅H₅)₂M₂] is found to have a binding energy slightly larger than those in [(η⁵-C₅Me₅)₂M₂]. The trend of the M-M bond dissociation energy for the substituents R shows for metals the order GeH₃ < SiH₃ < CH₃ < C₅Me₅ < C₅H₅. Electrostatic forces between the metals are always attractive and they are strong (−75.8 to −110.5 kcal/mol). The results demonstrate clearly that the atomic partial charges cannot be taken as a measure of the electrostatic interactions between the atoms. The orbital interaction (covalent bonding) ΔE_orb is always smaller than the electrostatic attraction ΔE_elstat. The M-M bonding in [RM-M-R] (R = CH₃, SiH₃, GeH₃, C₅H₅, C₅Me₅; M = Zn, Cd, Hg) has more than half ionic character (56-64%). The values of Pauli repulsions, ΔE_Pauli, electrostatic interactions, ΔE_elstat, and orbital interactions, ΔE_elstat are larger for mercury compounds as compared to zinc and cadmium.     

Darstellung und Molekülstruktur des (μ-Alkylidenamido)titanocenkomplexes [(C5H5)2TiCl]2[μ-{N=C(CH2C6H5)C(CH2C6H5)=N}]

Reduction of (C₅H₅)₂TiCl₂ with Zn in presence of benzyl cyanide gives the (μ-alkyl-ideneamido)titanocene complex [(C₅H₅)₂TiCl]₂[μ-{N=C(CH₂C₆H₅)---C(CH₂C₆H₅)=N}] with C---C bond formation between two benzyl cyanide molecules.

X-ray structure investigation indicates a symmetrical structure. The C=N distances are smaller than usual, the Ti---N distances are very short, and the Ti---N---C angle differs only a little from 180°, which infers a heteroallene structure of the complex.     

Surface-enhanced raman spectra of C2H2 and C2H4 adsorbed on silver colloid

We report the surface-enhanced Raman spectra of ethylene and acetylene adsorbed on colloidal silver particles formed by gas aggregation and isolated at low temperatures in solid adsorbate/argon matrices. The spectra of both molecules exhibit modes which are normally Raman-forbidden. Excitation with several visible laser frequencies indicated that the degree of enhancement increased towards the blue.     

Kinetic isotope effects in the reaction H + C2H4 → C2H5

The high-pressure limiting rate constants of the reactions between H or D atoms and three isotopic ethylenes have been measured in the temperature range 206–461 K. Practically no isotope effects due to the differences between the ethylenes could be observed. This result does not agree with the prediction recently made by the activated complex theory.     

Synthesis and structure of ansa-cyclopentadienyl pyrrolyl titanium complexes: [(η-C5H4)CH2(2-C4H3N)]Ti(NMe2)2 and [1,3-{CH2(2-C4H3N)}2(η-C5H3)]Ti(NMe2)

Reaction of ansa-cyclopentadienyl pyrrolyl ligand (C₅H₅)CH₂(2-C₄H₃NH) (2) with Ti(NMe₂)₄ affords bis(dimethylamido)titanium complex [(η⁵-C₅H₄)CH₂(2-C₄H₃N)]Ti(NMe₂)₂ (3) via amine elimination. A cyclopentadiene ligand with two pendant pyrrolyl arms, a mixture of 1,3- and 1,4-{CH₂(2-C₄H₃NH)}₂C₅H₄ (4), undergoes an analogous reaction with Ti(NMe₂)₄ to give [1,3-{CH₂(2-C₄H₃N)}₂(η⁵-C₅H₃)]Ti(NMe₂) (5). Molecular structures of 3 and 5 have been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction studies.     

Dialkylindium-thioacetate R2InOSCCH3 (R = CH3,C2H5), darstellung,eigenschaften und struktur

Dimethylindium thioacetate has been prepared and the vibrational spectra (IR and Raman) discussed. The X-ray structural determination shows that diethylindium thioacetate belongs to the orthorhombic space group Pnma. The unit cell with lattice constants a = 8.588, b = 13.834, c = 8.345 Å contains four molecules. The indium—oxygen distance within the four-membered ring is nearly the same as the distance between the oxygen and the indium atom of the adjacent ring. Indium has therefore the coordination number 5.     

Freezing Point of Mixtures of C6H6 with C6D6 or 13C6H6 and of CH3COOH with CH3COOD or CD3COOD

The freezing points of mixtures of benzene, C₆H₆, with one of its isotopes, C₆D₆ and ¹³C₆H₆, and those of acetic acid CH₃COOH with its isotopes, CH₃COOD and CD₃COOD, were measured as functions of the molal concentrations of C₆D₆ and ¹³C₆H₆, CH₃COOD and CD₃COOD, respectively. They changed linearly or non-linearly with increasing molal concentration of C₆D₆ and ¹³C₆H₆, CH₃COOD, and CD₃COOD, respectively. These findings confirm Kiyosawas previous conclusion drawn from experiments on the freezing points of mixtures of H₂¹⁶O with H₂¹⁸O or H₂¹⁷O. This hypothesis states that even a difference in the number of neutrons in the hydrogen or oxygen atoms of water molecules makes water molecules behave as different entities with respect to the colligative properties of solutions. This concept can be extended to mixtures of ordinary benzene with either of its isotopes, C₆D₆ or ¹³C₆H₆, and those of ordinary acetic acid CH₃COOH with either of its isotopes, CH₃COOD or CD₃COOD.     

An unexpected molybdenum(0) complex with “MoP6” coordination: crystal structure of [Mo{P(CH2CH2PPh2)3}2] · C5H10

The reaction of trans-[Mo(N₂)₂(PPh₂Me)₄] with the tripodal phosphine tris(2-diphenylphosphinoethyl)phosphine, PP₃, in benzene has been studied. The product was recrystallized from a mixture of benzene and petroleum ether to give [Mo(PP₃)₂]·C₅H₁₀, whose crystal structure shows a distorted octahedral “MoP₆” coordination with both phosphines acting as tridentate ligands.
