苯并三氮唑及其羧酸酯衍生物对铜缓蚀机理的分子动力学模拟研究

用分子动力学(MD)方法, 模拟计算了5种铜缓蚀剂[苯并三氮唑(BTA)、苯并三氮唑-5-羧酸甲酯(MBTC)、苯并三氮唑-5-羧酸丁酯(BBTC)、苯并三氮唑-5-羧酸己酯(HBTC)、苯并三氮唑-5-羧酸辛酯(OBTC)]与Cu₂O晶体的相互作用. 结果发现, 中性条件下缓蚀剂分子与Cu₂O晶体的结合能均大于酸性条件下的数值, 但两种条件下结合能的大小排序均为OBTC＞HBTC＞BBTC＞MBTC＞BTA. 对体系各种相互作用以及对关联函数g(r)的分析表明, 体系结合能主要由库仑作用提供, Cu₂O晶体中的Cu原子与缓蚀剂分子中的N原子之间形成了配位键. 在与Cu₂O(001)晶面结合过程中, BTA及其衍生物分子发生了扭曲变形, 但形变能远小于体系的非键相互作用能.     

Density functional theory study of the mechanism of the proline-catalyzed intermolecular aldol reaction

Transition structures associated with the C-C bond-formation step of the proline-catalyzed intermolecular aldol reaction between acetone and isobutyraldehyde have been studies using density functional theory methods at the B3LYP/6-31G** computational level. A continuum model has been selected to represent solvent effects. For this step, which is the stereocontrolling and rate-determining step, four reactive channels corresponding to the syn and anti arrangement of the active methylene of the enamine relative to the carboxylic acid group of l-proline and the re and si attack modes to both faces of the aldehyde carbonyl group have been analyzed. The B3LYP/6-31G** energies are in good agreement with experiment, allowing us to explain the origin of the catalysis and stereoselectivity for these proline-catalyzed aldol reactions.

Carbenium ion pairs on silica: UV-spectroscopic and electrokinetic measurements of triarylmethylium/halide-aerosil in 1,2-dichloroethane

The interaction of carbenium ion pairs with silica is studied by means of UV-spectroscopy, electrokinetic and adsorption measurements using triphenylmethyl derivatives, (RC₆H₄)₃CX, (X=F, Cl, Br, SCN, OH; R=Cl, I, H, CH₃, C(CH₃)₃, OCH₃, N(CH₃)₂) in interaction with silica particles suspended in 1,2-dichloroethane. The adsorption of triarylmethyl-halides onto silica is accompanied by the heterolytic dissociation of the tertiary carbonhalogen bond. The degree of ionization depends on the basicity of the counter anion and acidity of the cation, respectively. The influences of both concentration and structure of triarylmethyl halides on the zeta-potential are discussed with regard to steric and electronic factor. The zeta-potential values of the adsorbates decrease significantly, as compared with the free silica surface, from a certain triarylmethyl halide concentration where ionization takes place, to a constant level which is characteristic of the carbenium ion pair. These constant zeta-potential values of the adsorbates depend on the basicity of the counter ion and the _p Hammett constants of the ring substitutents, with exclusion of sterically hindered substituents and salt derivatives, e.g., crystal violet and malachite green.     

STUDY ON THE NANOSECOND TRANSIENT ABSORPTION SPECTRA OF HYPOCRELLIN A

In this paper, the nanosecond transient absorption spectra and the fluorescence spectraof Hypocrellin A(HA) are examined in solvents of varying polarity. There are three absorp-tion bands in dilute HA solutions: Ⅰa, Ⅱa are defined as the triplet-triplet absorption ofHA, the band Ⅲa is supposed to be the absorption of the solvent--sepatated ion pair (SSIP).In more concentrated solutions, only the absorption of SSIP was observed. The effects ofsolvent polarity on transient absorption spectra and fluorescence spectra of HA and the effectof oxygen on the intensities of the fluorescence of HA are discussed. Then a reasonablemechanism for the photolysis of HA is proposed.     

Structural Studies of Transition Metal Compounds

A historical overview will be given on the structural studies on transition metal compounds and their interaction with other fields of coordination chemistry. About three decades have passed away since the structure and absolute configuration of tris(ethylenediamine)cobalt(III) complex ion were determined. At present accumulation of the structural data for isomers has enabled us to understand structural principles of chelate complexes in considerable detail. The energy minimization calculations can predict the detailed geometries of the complexes. Differences in thermodynamic properties between different conformers are well reproduced. Aspherical distribution of 3d electrons in transition metal complexes was detected for the first time in crystals of [Co(NH3)₆][Co(CN)₆] in 1973. Such an accurate electron density study provides important information on the d electrons placed in a ligand field. The high-spin and low-spin states can be distinguished unequivocally. In spite of a very small valence/total electron ratio, the asphericity of 4d and 5d electrons in a ligand field can be detected. The crystal structures of a series of dimeric copper(II) carboxylate adducts of the general formula [Cu(RCOO)₂L]₂ have been determined or redetermined as accurately as possible. The temperature dependent magnetic susceptibility of these crystals indicated that the isolated pairs of Cu(II) ions interact strongly through exchange forces. Molecular orbital calculations revealed that the electron population in the carbon atom of the bridging OCO group plays an important role in determining the strength of the spin superexchange interaction. In the crystals of some cobaloxime complexes, racemization of chiral groups bonded to Co proceeds on X-ray exposure without degradation of crystallinity. Several intermediate stages could be determined by X-ray analysis. Various reaction pathways were recognized and the reaction rate could be correlated with the atomic arrangement in the crystal.

Thermochemistry of adducts of some bivalent transition metal bromides with 4-chloroaniline

The compounds [MBr₂(p-clan)₂] (where M is Mn(II), Fe(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) or Zn(II); p-clan = 4-chloroaniline) were synthesized and characterized by melting points, elemental analysis, thermal analysis and electronic and IR spectroscopy. The enthalpies of solution of the adducts, metal(II) bromides and 4-chloroaniline in methanol, 1.2 M aqueous HCl or 25% (v/v) 1.2 M aqueous HCl in methanol were measures and by using thermochemical cycles, the following thermochemical parameters for the adducts have been determined: the standard enthalpies for the Lewis acid/base reactions (Δ_rH°), the standard enthalpies of formation (Δ_fH°), the standard enthalpies of decomposition (Δ_DH°), the lattice standard enthalpies (Δ_MH°) and the standard enthalpies of the Lewis acid/base reactions in the gaseous phase (Δ_rH°(g)). The mean bond dissociation enthalpies of the metal(II)-nitrogen coordinated bonds and the enthalpies of adduct formation in the gaseous phase have been estimated.
