The ground state potential curves of the Zn2, Cd2, and Hg2 dimers calculated at different levels of theory are presented and compared with each other as well as with experimental and other theoretical studies. The calculations at the level of Dirac-Coulomb Hamiltonian (DCH), 4-component spin-free Hamiltonian, nonrelativistic Lévy-Leblond Hamiltonian and at the level of simple Coulombic correction to DCH are presented. The potential curves are calculated in an all-electron supermolecular approach including the correction to basis set superposition error (BSSE). Electron correlation is treated at the coupled cluster level including single and double excitations and noniterative triple corrections, CCSD(T). In addition, simulations of the temperature dependence of dynamic viscosities in the low-density limit using the obtained ground state potential curves are presented. 相似文献
Spontaneous formation of smectic and columnar structures was observed when spherical gold nanoparticles were functionalized with mesogenic thiols (see layered structure and X‐ray pattern of a sample in smectic phase). The particle ordering is stimulated by softening of the interparticle potential and flexibility for deformation of the grafting layer.
The new ansa-titanocene dichloride [{(SiMePh)(η5-C5H4)2}TiCl2] (1) was prepared by one pot reaction, whereas synthesis of its methylated analogue [{(SiMePh)(η5-C5Me4)2}TiCl2] (3) was performed in two steps with isolation of corresponding silane intermediate SiMePh(HC5Me4)2 (2). The reaction of 1 and 3 with TiCl4 afforded the dinuclear complexes [(SiMePh){(η5-C5R4)TiCl3}2] (R = H (4) and R = Me (5)). The catalysts formed from 4 and 5 after their activation with excess MAO exhibited a modest activity in ethylene polymerization. The polymer products consisted of high molar mass linear polyethylenes with a broad molar mass distribution. The presence of three paramagnetic titanium species in the mixture 4/MAO was revealed by EPR spectroscopy. All new prepared compounds 1-5 were characterized by multinuclear NMR, EI-MS, IR, and solid-state structures of 1, 3 and 5 were determined by X-ray single crystal diffraction. 相似文献
Simvastatin is a substance used for the treatment of hypercholesterolemia. In addition to the already known room temperature
structure of simvastatin (Čejka et al. in Acta Cryst C59:o428, 2003) two new low-temperature polymorphs were found by X-ray
powder diffraction with the phase transition at 261 and 223 K (later confirmed by DSC to be 272 and 232 K). The main differences
among three polymorphs consist in the side-chains conformation only and the phase changes are fully reversible. The structures
of the polymorphs were studied by the powder diffraction based on synchrotron radiation as well as by solid-state NMR spectroscopy. 相似文献
The reliability of the AMBER force field is tested by comparing the total interaction energy and dispersion energy with the reference data obtained at the density functional theory–symmetry‐adapted perturbation treatment (DFT–SAPT)/aug‐cc‐pVDZ level. The comparison is made for 194 different geometries of noncovalent complexes (H‐bonded, stacked, mixed, and dispersion‐bound), at the equilibrium distances as well as at longer distances (up to a relative distance of two). The total interaction energies agree very well with the reference data and only the strength of H‐bonded complexes is slightly underestimated. In the case of dispersion energy, the overall agreement is even better, with the exception of the stacked aromatic systems, where the empirical dispersion energy is overestimated. The use of AMBER interaction energy and AMBER dispersion energy for different types of noncovalent complexes at equilibrium as well as at longer distances is thus justified, except for a few cases, such as the water molecule, where the dispersion energy is highly inaccurate.相似文献
Stochastics affects the optimal design of a network. This paper examines the single-source single-commodity stochastic network
design problem. We characterize the optimal designs under demand uncertainty and compare with the deterministic counterparts
to outline the basic structural differences. We do this partly as a basis for developing better algorithms than are available
today, partly to simply understand what constitutes robust network designs. 相似文献
We have investigated the photodynamics of phenol molecules in clusters. Possible reaction pathways following the photoexcitation of hydrogen-bonded phenol clusters have been identified theoretically using ab initio calculations. Experimentally we have studied the phenol molecules and clusters of various size distributions in a molecular beam apparatus. In particular, we have measured the H-fragment kinetic energy distributions after the excitation with 243 nm and 193 nm laser radiation. At 243 nm the KED spectra did not show any significant difference between the photodissociation of isolated molecules and phenol in larger clusters, while at 193 nm the contribution of the fast H-fragments is significantly suppressed in clusters with respect to the bare phenol molecule. We have interpreted the experimental results within the framework of the suggested reaction pathways. 相似文献
A series of PEPPSI-type palladium(II) complexes was synthesized that contain 3-chloropyridine as an easily removable ligand and a triazolylidene as a strongly donating mesoionic spectator ligand. Catalytic tests in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions revealed the activity of these complexes towards aryl bromides and aryl chlorides at moderate temperatures (50?°C). However, the impact of steric shielding was the inverse of that observed with related normal Nheterocyclic carbenes (imidazol-2-ylidenes) and sterically congested mesityl substituents induced lower activity than small alkyl groups. Mechanistic investigations, including mercury poisoning experiments, TEM analyses, and ESI mass spectrometry, provide evidence for ligand dissociation and the formation of nanoparticles as a catalyst resting state. These heterogeneous particles provide a reservoir for soluble palladium atoms or clusters as operationally homogeneous catalysts for the arylation of aryl halides. Clearly, the substitution of a normal N-heterocyclic carbene for a more basic triazolylidene ligand in the precatalyst has a profound impact on the mode of action of the catalytic system. 相似文献
