HOX(X=F,Cl)二聚体红移氢键的理论研究

用理论方法研究了二聚体HOX(X=F,Cl)分子间氢键,在B3LYP/6-31+G(d,p)、 B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p)、MP2/6-31+G(d,p)和MP2/6-311++G(d,p)水平上,利用标准方法和均衡校正方法对二聚体进行了几何优化、振动频率和相互作用能的计算。同时,利用电子密度拓扑分析和自然键轨道分析对红移氢键的本质进行了分析。研究表明：分子间O—H…O和O—H…X(X=F,Cl)氢键的形成使二聚体中O—H键伸长,伸缩振动频率减小,形成红移氢键。NBO分析表明,电荷转移效应占优势,因此形成O—H…O和O—H…X(F,Cl)红移氢键。

A Fitting Procedure for Magnetic Multiphase Materials Mössbauer Spectra

In this work a practical method of fitting complex multiphase Mössbauer effect spectra is proposed. The task is simplified imposing specific restrictions to the analysing functions, which are appropriate for cases where the component phases spectra do not change substantially during the process under study. The ME spectra can be analysed using the phases subspectra, by defining only a reduced number of parameters. The constraints are equivalent to assume a Doppler velocity transformation v=(v–_m)B _m0/B _m+_m0 for each phase, where _m and B _m are fitting parameters containing information on the phase mean isomer shift and hyperfine field and _m0 and B _m0 their reference values. In this manner physically meaningful results are easy to obtain. The idea was applied to partially nitrogenated R₂Fe₁₇N _x (R= Sm and Y) and partially hydrogen-decomposed Nd–Fe–B materials.     

μ–H Interaction in Hydrogen Bonding Systems

Muon spin rotation (μSR) experiments were performed on single crystal samples of KH₂PO₄(KDP) and KD₂PO₄(dKDP) to study the dynamics of hydrogen in hydrogen bonding systems. At low temperature, the nuclear dipole interaction of muon and proton was confirmed from the angular dependence of precession frequency of the muon spin under zero magnetic field. The muon occupation site was also determined. A clear change in μSR spectra was observed at the antiferroelectric transition temperature (123 K). At 90 K well below the transition temperature, the muon spin starts to relax, possibly due to muon dynamics. This revised version was published online in September 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

ADSORPTION BEHAVIOR OF AMINO ACIDS ON COPPER SURFACES

The major results of a series of our recent investigations on the adsorption of eight amino acids on Cu(001) and (111) surfaces are reviewed in the present paper. In all studied cases the molecules adsorb onto the surface in their anionic form. With the increase of the coverage three different 2D phases of the adsorbates, that is, the 2D lattice gas, intermediate, and solid phases, appear sequentially, although for few systems one or two of them do not appear. In both the 2D lattice gas and intermediate phases the molecules "stand" with their two oxygen "feet" on the surface and the intermolecular interactions are repulsive, although in the former they can diffuse frequently whereas in the latter they are discommensurate in one direction with the substrate. In the solid phase the molecules "lie" down on the surface to form commensurate superstructures. Adsorption of amino acids may often induce step faceting as well as bunching to form facets. Adsorption of L-lysine on Cu(001) may cause steps bunching to form facets with all the same chirality. Our preliminary results show that it is possible to manipulate individual molecules with the STM tip even at room temperature. These results may have applications in nano-materials, nano-technology, and very likely also in chiral separations or enantioselective heterogeneous catalysis.     

稀释剂对H2/CH4预混火焰熄灭特性影响

掺氢天然气在稀释气体作用下的熄灭特性研究对实际燃烧设备的设计和优化具有重要的指导意义。本文利用对冲火焰法测量了掺氢天然气层流火焰在N₂和CO₂作用下的熄灭拉伸率,并采用数值模拟耦合详细化学反应机理对N₂,CO₂和He的稀释剂效应展开研究。结果表明,Li、GRI Mech 3.0和FFCM-1机理均能定性反映燃料熄灭拉伸率随当量比的变化规律,且FFCM-1机理综合预测精度最高。实验和模拟发现,不同稀释剂气体对掺氢天然气熄灭拉伸率降低幅度满足:He22。进一步研究发现,CO₂由于热容大,在反应体系中会降低火焰温度,同时增强了链终止反应强度,通过热效应和化学效应两方面对火焰熄灭特性起作用。He则能显著改变燃料混合物的平均摩尔质量,从而改变体系中重要反应物和自由基的扩散特性,从扩散效应方面影响火焰的熄灭特性。     

C_9N_4 as excellent dual electrocatalyst: A first principles study

We perform first principles calculations to investigate the catalytic behavior of C_9 N_4 nanosheet for water splitting.For the pristine C_9 N_4,we find that,at different hydrogen coverages,two H atoms adsorbed on the 12-membered ring and one H atom adsorbed on the 9-membered ring show excellent performance of hydrogen evolution reaction(HER).Tensile strain could improve the catalytic ability of C_9 N_4 and strain can be practically introduced by building C_9 N_4/BiN,and C_9 N_4/GaAs heterojunctions.We demonstrate that the HER performance of heterojunctions is indeed improved compared with that of C_9 N_4 nanosheet.Anchoring transition metal atoms on C_9 N_4 is another strategy to apply strain.It shows that Rh@C_9 N_4 exhibits superior HER property with very low Gibbs free energy change of-30 meV.Under tensile strain within ～2%,Rh@C_9 N_4 could catalyze HER readily.Moreover,the catalyst Rh_9 C_9 N_4 works well for oxygen evolution reaction(OER)with an overpotential of 0.58 V.Our results suggest that Rh@C_9 N_4 is favorable for both HER and OER because of its metallic conductivity,close-zero Gibbs free energy change,and low oneset overpotential.The outstanding performance of C_9 N_4 nanosheet could be attributed to the tunable porous structure and electronic structure compatibility.     

Hydrogen-induced dynamic slowdown of metallic glass-forming liquids

Dynamics of hydrogen doped Cu_(50) Zr_(50) glass-forming liquids are investigated by using the newly developed modified embedded atomic method(MEAM) potential based on molecular dynamics simulations. We find that the doping of hydrogen atoms slows down the relaxation dynamics, reduces the fragility of supercooled melts, and promotes the occurrence of glass transitions. The dynamic slowdown is suggested to be closely related to the effect of hydrogen atoms on locally ordered structure of melts. With increasing concentration of hydrogen, the five-fold symmetry associated with Cu-and Zr-centered polyhedrons is lowered, on the other hand, the local order featuring metal hydrides is enhanced. The latter dominates the dynamic behaviors of glass-forming liquids, especially for Zr atoms, and results in the dynamic slowdown.     

丝氨酸蛋白酶中催化三元组内氢键的作用

为了探究丝氨酸蛋白酶催化效率的来源,本文分别研究了丝氨酸酶催化水解多肽CI2、MCTI-A和六肽(SUB)的过程中催化三元组内的氢键所起的作用. 首先采用QM/MM-MD方法计算了在酶-底物复合物和过渡态下组氨酸和天冬氨酸之间质子转移的自由能曲线. 结果表明低能垒氢键仅在CI2酰化反应的过渡态区域形成,而在MCTI-A和SUB酰化反应中均是正常氢键. 与MCTI-A相比,CI2和SUB体系中氢键强度在过渡态时显著增强,因此相应的酰化反应能垒明显降低. 过渡态区域形成的低能垒氢键显然有助于加速酰化反应,同时研究也表明正常氢键也有可能降低能垒. 氢键降低能垒的关键则在于过渡态下氢键强度的增加程度,而不是其是否生成了低能垒氢键. 本文为研究催化三元组间的氢键在丝氨酸蛋白酶中的作用提供了新思路,并有助于理解丝氨酸蛋白酶中催化三元组的催化机制.
