Coupling properties of imidazole dimer radical cation assisted by embedded water molecule: toward understanding of interaction character of hydrogen-bonded histidine residue side-chains

Geometry optimizations are performed at the DFTB3LYP6-311+G* level. Four intriguing coupling modes, totally eight stable structures are found in the potential energy surfaces of the water-assisted coupling of imidazole dimer radical cation. In these isomers, the water molecules are embedded between two imidazole moieties, and the oxygen atom is tridentate or quadridentate, respectively. The distinct redshifts of the vibrational frequencies of the O-H...N and N-H...O type H bonds indicate the strong interaction of two imidazole rings of respective isomer. Inspection of the highest occupied molecular orbital predicts the alterations of the geometry structures on oxidation and reduction. The low barrier of the fragment rotation demonstrates that the isomerization processes by experiencing the distinct transition states are easy to fulfill, especially for those with O-H...N and C-H...O H bonds. Both the energy difference of the 0 degrees-cis and 180 degrees-trans orientation and the barriers of the fragment rotation are lowered by the water assisting. The range of the zero point vibrational energy correction indicates that the influence on the complexes with N-H...O and O-H...N H bonds (0.13-0.17 kcal/mol) is more significant than those with O-H...N and C-H...O H bonds (+/-0.03 kcal/mol). The dissociation energies of these isomers indicate that the charges transfer easily through water in the dissociation process and then are distributed mainly over the imidazole ring connecting with water molecule. The isomer with proton transfer between imidazole fragments is the most stable one.

Theoretical Study on the Isomerization Mechanism of Enol Ester from 2-Acyl-1, 3-cyclohexanediones

The present paper employed density function theory to investigate two reaction pathways for isomerization of enol ester proposed by Yang(path a) and the present authors(path a), respectively. The base catalytic effects of solvent triethylamine on these two reactions were also evaluated. It is demonstrated that path B is more preferable than path a due to low barrier height for the rate-determining step.     

Na5(In4S)(InS4)3.6H2O, a zeolite-like structure with unusual SIn4 tetrahedra

A hydrated sodium indium sulfide, Na5(In4S)(InS4)3.6H2O, has been prepared by hydrothermal synthesis. This material contains a tetrahedral sulfur site coordinated to four trivalent indium ions, an unusual bonding pattern not previously observed in open framework chalcogenides. The structure is related to the perovskite (CaTiO3) type with simultaneous substitutions of Ti by SIn4, O by InS4, and Ca2+ by [Na5(H2O)6]5+. It is a wide-gap semiconductor and shows photocatalytic activity under UV light for hydrogen generation from aqueous solution without use of any cocatalyst.

Rate constants for the reactions of a series of alkylperoxy radicals with NO

The rate constants for the gas-phase reactions of isopropyl- and tert-butylperoxy radicals with nitric oxide (NO) have been studied at 298 +/- 2 K and a total pressure of 3-4 Torr (He buffer) using a laser flash photolysis technique coupled with a time-resolved negative-ionization mass spectrometry. The alkyl peroxy radicals were generated by the reaction of alkyl radicals with excess O(2), where alkyl radicals were prepared by laser photolysis of several precursor molecules. The rate constants were determined to be k(i-C(3)H(7)O(2) + NO) = (8.0 +/- 1.5) x 10(-12) and k(t-C(4)H(9)O(2) + NO) = (8.6 +/- 1.4) x 10(-12) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1). The results in combination with our previous studies are discussed in terms of the systematic reactivity of alkyl peroxy radicals toward NO.
