First, we evaluated the complete electric dipole moment matrixeZ using a multi- AO basis on Cr, C, and O centers fortheimportant, parent organometallic molecule -C6H6Cr(CO)3. Second, we generated ground state LCAO-MO eigenvectors employing five commonly used semi-empirical procedures for molecules of this size which contain transition metals. Transformation of operator matrixeZ into the MO space of each of the five methods then leads us to conclude that the empirical input of Basch, Viste and Gray is most suitable. Finally, we compare the merits of several single- basis orbitals with the multi- metal orbitals.[/p] 相似文献
One of the toxic products from chlorine bleaching of wood pulp is 4-chlorophenol (4-CP). Detoxification of such compounds usually requires their dechlorination. The present study involves a fairly detailed comparison of the attempt and success of the photolytic dechlorination of 4-CP in O2-saturated aqueous solutions using ArF* (193 nm) and KrF* (248 nm) excimer laser radiation at higher (1.1 × 10−2 M) and lower (4.5 × 10−4 M) starting substrate concentrations and comparisons of quantum yield (φ), product distributions, etc.
At the higher starting substrate concentration (1.1 × 10−2 M) the average initial quantum yields, i.e. early in the reaction process, for the disappearance of 4-CP (φ ≈2 0.30) and for the generation of chloride ions (φ ≈2 0.25) were about the same for both 193 and 248 nm radiation. However, when the number of photons absorbed (n) became greater than about 3 × 1020, more chloride ions (higher φ) were generated with the 193 nm radiation than with the 248 nm radiation. Oligomers were the major products for both wavelengths of radiation, but the quantity of oligomers generated was greater using the 193 nm radiation. At 248 nm a significant amount of hydroquinone was generated, whereas hydroquinone was not detected with the 193 nm radiation. In addition, a significant amount of 4-chlorocatechol was generated during the direct photolysis of 4-CP using either wavelength of radiation. This is a new result for the photolysis of 4-CP at a wavelength longer than 193 nm in the absence of added H2O2.
At the lower starting substrate concentration (4.5 × 10−4 M) the average initial quantum yields for the disappearance of 4-CP (φ ≈2 0.55) and for the generation of chloride ions (φ ≈2 0.45) were both much greater using the 193 nm radiation than with the 248 nm radiation and 0.10 respectively). At 193 nm oligomers were still the major products generated, but the fraction of oligomeric products generated was less than the fraction at the higher substrate concentration. This is consistent with the fact that at the lower substrate concentration a significant amount of hydroquinone was generated at 193 nm, whereas it was not detected at this wavelength for the higher substrate concentration. During the 248 nm photolysis of 4-CP at this lower starting substrate concentration, hydroquinone was the only major product generated in these experiments. Oligomers were not observed at this lower substrate concentration using 248 nm radiation, whereas oligomers were generated at the higher substrate concentration.
The results demonstrate the utility of using an excimer laser for the photolytic dechlorination of 4-CP without added photocatalysts or additives. It is also possible to suggest a number of explanations, given in the text, which are consistent with our findings. 相似文献
The composition, structure, magnetic properties and stability of iron-tin thin films produced by co-evaporation with de magnetron sputtering are studied. Rutherford backscattering. Auger electron spectroscopy. X-ray diffraction and conversion electron Mössbauer spectroscopy indicate the formation of a homogeneous solid solution of tin in iron with a concentration well above the limit of equilibrium solid solubility. Measurements with a vibrating-sample magnetometer show that the films present saturation magnetization and remanence similar to those of pure iron, but a much smaller coercivity. Thermal treatment or aging lead to second-phase precipitation, which is accompanied by a growth of coercivity and remanence. 相似文献
Within the scope of phase-transfer halogenations (Br and I) of alkanes, significant H/D kinetic isotope effects (KIE = 4-5) indicate that hydrogen abstraction is rate limiting. The excellent agreement of computed and experimentally determined H/D KIE as well as trapping experiments support the involvement of trihalomethyl radicals in the activation step. 相似文献
The influence of electron-withdrawing groups (carbonyl and carboxyl) at the alkyne termini on the reactivity of enediynes was investigated by a combination of experimental and computational techniques. While the general chemical reactivity of such enediynes, especially if non-benzannelated, is increased markedly, the thermal cyclization, giving rise to Bergman cyclization products, is changed little relative to the parent enediyne system. This is evident from kinetic measurements and from density functional theory (DFT, BLYP/6-31G + thermal corrections) computations of the experimental systems which show that the Bergman cyclization barriers slightly (3-4 kcal/mol) increase, in contrast to earlier theoretical predictions. The effect on the endothermicities is large (DeltaDeltaH(r) = 7-12 kcal/mol). Hence, the increased reactivity of the substituted enediynes is entirely due to nucleophiles or radicals present in solution. This was demonstrated by quantitative experiments with diethylamine and tetramethyl piperidyl oxide (TEMPO) which both give fulvenes through 5-exo-dig cyclizations. 相似文献
Natural chrysotile fibers and pegmatitic phlogopite were acid-leached under controlled conditions. The resulting products were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, (29)Si nuclear magnetic resonance, transmission electron microscopy, and selected area electron diffraction. The leached products derived of the two clays are similar, consisting of layered hydrated disordered silica with a "distorted" structure resembling the silicate layer existing in the original minerals. A simple model of the "disordered" silica structure is presented. 相似文献
The mechanisms of activation of a C—H bond by chromium-oxo reagents in the reactions of methane, isobutane, adamantane, and protoadamantane with CrO2(OH)2 were investigated by the BH&HLYP quantum-chemical method in the 6-31G* and 6-311G** (for Cr) basis sets. It was shown that the transition states have clearly defined biradical character and significant transfer of charge from the hydrocarbon to the electrophile. 相似文献
Ground-state triplet silaethylidene, generated directly by the reaction of 3P carbon atoms with silane under matrix isolation conditions in solid Ar (10-12 K), has been thoroughly characterized by the EPR and IR spectra of both the parent and perdeuterated isotopologs. A theoretical anharmonic vibrational analysis based on a CCSD(T)/cc-pVTZ complete quartic force field gave remarkable agreement with the experimental IR fundamentals, generally within 10 cm-1 and without any empirical scaling of the ab initio frequencies. Silaethylidene exhibits a Cs minimum with a H-C-Si angle near 153 degrees , but the barrier to H-C-Si linearity (C3v symmetry) is only 0.24 kcal mol-1. This minuscule barrier can be surmounted by zero-point vibrations, as evident from the EPR data. The triplet stabilizing effect of the electropositive SiH3 group amounts to about 15 kcal mol-1. 相似文献
