The triplet channel in the photodissociation of ozone in the Hartley band: classical trajectory surface hopping analysis

The triplet channel in the photodissociation of ozone in the Hartley band, O3 + hv-->O(3P) + O2(3sigma), is investigated by means of a classical trajectory surface hopping method using ab initio diabatic potential energy surfaces for the B and the R states. Because of the strong recoil in the R state along the breaking O-O bond, O2(3sigma) is produced with a high rotational energy. The nonadiabatic transition probability depends markedly on the coordinate along the crossing seam. As a consequence a unique correlation is found between the internuclear geometry at the crossing and the final vibrational state of O2(3sigma). The calculated distribution of the translational energy is in good accord with the measured distribution.     

Study on the effects of fluorine and oxygen deficiency on YBa2Cu307 byab initio method

The calculations of clusters modeling the fluorine-doping and oxygen deficiency of YBa₂Cu₃0₇ have been performed by the method of all-electronab initio Hartree-Fock with self-consistent crystal field. Results show that in CuO planes electric charge significantly increases, the chemical valence of Cu decreases and the covalent bonding of Cu-O greatly weakens owing to oxygen deficiency, while the effect of F restores the local electronic structure of YBa₂Cu₃O₇. The reported opinion that F occupied the oxygen vacancy in Cu-O chains seems disputable according to the calculated bonding characteristics Project supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China.     

Novel preparation of organic polymer-based monolithic column by microwave irradation

Microwave irradiation was firstly attempted for the preparation of organic-based monoliths of poly（styrene-divinylbenzene- methacrylic acid）, which single step in situ polymerization was carried out during 15 min. The colunm permeability, electrophoretic and chromatographac behaviors were comparatively evaluated using pressure-assisted CEC, GEC and low pressure-driven separation modes. The largest theoretical plates for the preparing column could be close to 18,0000 plates/m for thiourea in the mode of p-CEC. It provided a viable alternative to traditional initiation means for the perparation of monolithic capillary columns.

Host–Guest Complexation of <Emphasis Type="Italic">β</Emphasis>-, <Emphasis Type="Italic">γ</Emphasis>-Cyclodextrin with Alkyl Trimethyl Ammonium Bromides in Aqueous Solution

As a continuation of our previous investigation, interactions between cyclodextrin (β-CD), γ-cyclodextrin (γ-CD) and alkyl trimethylammonium bromides in aqueous solutions have been studied with titration calorimetry and ¹H NMR at 298.15 K. The results are discussed in terms of the amphiphilic interaction of CD with surfactants and the iceberg structure formed by water molecules existing around the hydrophobic tail of surfactant molecules. The stoichiometry of the β-CD–surfactant system is 1:1 whereas that of the γ-CD–surfactant system is 1:2. The corresponding formation enthalpy (negative) of the complexes of the two systems decreases with an increase in the number of carbon atoms (n) in hydrophobic chain of surfactant molecule, C _n H_2n+1, whereas the entropy increases with the enlargement of n.     

Preparation of crosslinked polystyrene-supported ethylenediamine via a S-containing spacer and adsorption properties towards metal ions

Two novel chelating resins were prepared by anchoring ethylenediamine to crosslinked polystyrene via a spacer containing sulfide. Their structures were characterized by Fourier transform-infrared spectra (FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Porous structure parameters of the resins were measured by ASAP 2020 using BET and BJH methods. Their adsorption capacities for several heavy metal ions especially Hg²⁺ were investigated. The results showed that for the two resins, the more N contents did not mean the better adsorption capacity and the saturated adsorption capacity of poly(2-ethylenediamidomercaptomethylstyrene) (PSM-EDA) for Hg²⁺ could reach to 3.0 mmol/g at room temperature. Isothermal adsorptions of the resins for Hg²⁺ could be described by Langmuir formula. The adsorption mechanism of the resins for Hg²⁺, Cu²⁺ and Ag⁺ was confirmed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and FTIR.     

Direct evidence of oxidized gold on supported gold catalysts

Supported gold catalysts have drawn worldwide interest due to the novel properties and potential applications in industries. However, the origin of the catalytic activity in gold nanoparticles is still not well understood. In this study, time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectroscopy (TOF-SIMS) has been applied to investigate the nature of gold in Au (1.3 wt %)/gamma-Al2O3 and Au (2.8 wt %)/TiO2 catalysts prepared by the deposition-precipitation method. The SIMS spectrum of the supported gold catalysts presented AuO-, AuO2-, and AuOH- ion clusters. These measurements show direct evidence for oxidized gold on supported gold catalysts and may be helpful to gaining better understanding of the origin of the catalytic activity.     

Calorimetric and thermal decomposition kinetic study of Tb(Tyr)(Gly)<Subscript>3</Subscript>Cl<Subscript>3</Subscript>·3H<Subscript>2</Subscript>O

The solid-state ternary complex of terbium chloride with L-tyrosine and glycine, [Tb(Tyr)(Gly)₃Cl₃·3H₂O], was synthesized and characterized. Using a solution-reaction isoperibol calorimeter, the enthalpy of reaction for the following reaction, TbCl₃·6H₂O(s)+Tyr(s)+3Gly(s)=Tb(Tyr)(Gly)₃Cl₃·3H₂O(s)+3H₂O(l), was determined to be (5.1±0.6) kJ mol^-1. The standard enthalpy of formation of Tb(Tyr)(Gly)₃Cl₃-3H₂O at T=298.15 K has been derived as -(4267.3±2.3) kJ mol^-1. The thermal decomposition kinetics of the complex was studied by non-isothermal thermogravimetry in the temperature range of 325-675 K. Two main mass loss stages existed in the process of the decomposition of the complex, the kinetic parameters for the second stage were analyzed by means of differential and integral methods, respectively. Comparing the results of differential and integral methods, mechanism functions of the thermal decomposition reaction for its second stage were proposed. The kinetic equation can be expressed as: d/dt=Aexp(-E/RT)(1-)². The average values of the apparent activation energy E and pre-exponential factor A were 213.18 kJ mol^-1 and 2.51·10²⁰ s^-1, respectively.

The energy of combustion of crystalline 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoic acid in oxygen at T=298.15 K was determined to be -4795.9±1.3 kJ mol^-1 using combustion calorimetry. The derived standard molar enthalpies of formation of 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoic acid in crystalline and gaseous states at T=298.15 K, Δ_fH_m ^Θ (cr) and Δ_fH_m ^Θ (g), were -852.9±1.9 and -721.7±2.0 kJ mol^-1, respectively. The reliability of the results obtained was commented upon and compared with literature values. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.
