DFT Study on the Structure of Ionic Liquid 1-Ethyl-3-methylimidazolium Hexafluorophosphate

1 INTRODUCTION Ionic compounds generally have high melting points and always exist in solid state since they are main- tained by electrovalent bonds. Ionic Liquids (ILs), which are liquids at or near ambient temperature, have been a class of ionic compounds extensively studied experimentally and theoretically in recent years[1, 2]. ILs consist exclusively of anions and ca- tions and do not contain any neutral molecule. They have many attractive properties, such as low vapor pressure, no…     

Absence of p,π-conjugation in the Cl2C=CHOMe molecule from data ofab initio calculations

ab initio Calculation of the Cl₂C=CHOMe molecule has been carried out with geometrical optimization in the split valence basis set in the RHF/6-31G^*//RHF/6-31G^* approximation. An analysis of the populations of the p-orbitals of the Cl atoms implies the absence of p,-conjugation between the unshared electron pairs of these atoms and the -bond. The asymmetry parameters of the electric field gradient at the³⁵Cl nuclei, calculated from the 3p-orbital populations of the Cl atoms, practically coincide with the experimental values.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Molecular shape effects and quantum theory

Certain features of the chemist's molecular structure model, viz. size and shape, are retrieved even in the best non-adiabatic variational calculations thus far carried out for ground states of H ₂ ⁺ and H₂. Those features do not conflict with the full symmetry of exact molecular eigenstates, once they are properly understood as correlation effects.     

氮化锇配合物离子[OsN(mnt)2]-的电子结构和光谱性质的理论研究

理论研究了离子型配合物[OsN(mnt)2]-[mnt=S2C2(CN)2)]的电子结构和光谱性质, 考察不同配体三价N、二硫氰烯S2C2(CN)2和金属Os的相互作用对光化学性质的影响. 分别在B3LYP/LANL2DZ和CIS/LANL2DZ水平上优化了配合物的基态和激发态结构. 与基态(1A1)相比, 激发态(3A2)的Os≡N 的键长缩短了0.0066 nm, 这与计算得到的频率增大一致, 使用TD-DFT方法计算得到了配合物的吸收和发射光谱. 计算得到的位于300 nm(f=0.1497)和262 nm(f=0.2890)的强吸收都来自1A1→1B1跃迁, 分别指认为SC→Os≡N+CN 和N+SC→Os≡N+CN的电子跃迁. 最低能量的吸收位于446 nm(f=0.0206) 处, 来自1A1→1B2的电子跃迁, 指认为N→Os和 N+SC→CN. 计算得到配合物在气态的磷光发射位于678 nm(A3A2→X1A1)处, 而在丙酮溶液中则蓝移到了625 nm处, 跃迁属性不变, 都是N→Os和S→Os的跃迁.     

A novel trilinear decomposition algorithm： Three-dimension non-negative matrix factorization

Non-negative matrix factorization(NMF)is a technique for dimensionality reduction by placing non-negativity constraints onthe matrix.Based on the PARAFAC model,NMF was extended for three-dimension data decomposition.The three-dimension non-negative matrix factorization(NMF3)algorithm,which was concise and easy to implement,was given in this paper.The NMF3algorithm implementation was based on elements but not on vectors.It could decompose a data array directly without unfolding,which was not similar to that the traditional algorithms do.It has been applied to the simulated data array decomposition andobtained reasonable results.It showed that NMF3 could be introduced for curve resolution in chemometrics.     

Y2O3薄膜处理对3Cr25Ni7N合金的抗高温氧化性能的影响

采用电沉积-热解法在3Cr25Ni7N合金表面制备了Y2O3薄膜,并研究了薄膜处理对合金在1000℃空气中的抗高温氧化性能的影响。氧化动力学曲线、SEM及XRD分析结果表明,Y2O3薄膜处理使合金表面氧化膜以尖晶石结构为主,氧化膜致密,有效地抑制了Cr2O3的挥发反应,且氧化膜与基体的附着性好,因此合金在高温下的抗氧化性能得到提高,这与氧化钇薄膜在较低温度下抗高温氧化性能提高的机制是不同的。在不同温度下,Y2O3薄膜处理均可以有效提高合金的抗高温氧化性能。     

New Rare Earth（Ⅲ） Complexes with H2tmtaa

A series of Ln(tmtaa)(Htmtaa)·CH_2Cl_2(Ln=Sm,Tb,Er and Yb)complexes were prepared and characterized byinfrared spectra,mass spectra and molecular electronic spectroscopy as well as DSC measurement.A sandwichstructure containing all the eight nitrogen atoms of tmtaa and Htmtaa was proposed for these complexes.X-rayphotoelectron spectra(XPS)of these complexes revealed that four nitrogen atoms of both tmtaa and Htmtaa werechemically equivalent to each other,respectively.The acidic hydrogen of Htmtaa did not bind specifically to any ni-trogen atom of Htmtaa,but was shared by all the four nitrogen atoms.The magnetic properties of these complexeswere found to be in good agreement with their theoretical values.     

Photocatalytic Oxidation of Aniline in the Gas Phase Using Porous TiO2 Thin Films

The gas-phase photocatalytic oxidation of aniline on a new kind of porous nano-TiO₂ composite films is investigated. The composite film was prepared on glass fiber with the water glass as binders and dilute H₂SO₄ solution as solidifying reagent. The surface characters were observed by scanning electron microscope. The photocatalytic degradation of aniline on the composite films was carried out in a TiO₂/UV system. Some important factors affecting the photodegradation, such as the concentration of TiO₂, the initial concentration of aniline, and the existing water vapor, are also studied. The product of photocatalytic oxidation was detected by Fourier transform-Infrared. The partial intermediate products were absorbed on TiO₂ surface, which resulted in catalyst deactivation. But when it was irradiated under UV illumination or solar irradiation for some time, the catalyst could be reused without loss of catalytic activity.

PREPARATION OF POLYSULFONAMIDE/TiO2 NANOCOMPOSITES BY SOL-GEL

Polysulfonamide (PSA) was synthesized at room temperature, the polymerization based on terephthaloyl chloride and 3,3 '-diaminodiphenylsulfone in the common solvent N,N -Dimethyl-acetamide (DMAc). Polysulfonamide/titanium oxide nanocomposites were prepared by sol-gel method. Tetrabutyl titanate(TBT) was added into the polysulfonamide solution, at the same time ,some water was mixed to make the TBT hydrolyze. In the process, hydrochloric acid was used to catalyze the reaction. The polysulfonamide chemistry structure was characterized by FT-IR spectrum. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) was employed to observe the microstructure of the composite film. The thermal property was investigated by TGA.The results show that we have succeeded to synthesize the polysulfonamide, TiO2particles were well distributed in the composite film and average size was about 20 nm on average, the heat-resistance of nanocomposite was batter than the pure polysulfonamide.     

Hydrothermal synthesis of one-dimensional (1D) Na<Subscript>x</Subscript>TiO<Subscript>2</Subscript> nanostructures

Nanorods of sodium titanium dioxide bronze Na_xTiO₂ were synthesized by the hydrothermal treatment of the amorphous TiO₂·nH₂O gel with 10 M NaOH followed by ultrasonication in 0.1 M HCl and thermal treatment (500°C, 10 h). The thermal treatment of the nanorods does not change the morphology of the particles. According to the electron diffraction data, the Na_xTiO₂ nanorods grow along the c axis.__________Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.
