Co-adsorption NO and organic molecules on Cu sites in zeolites: Quantum chemical DFT calculations

The co-adsorption of organic molecules: acetone, formaldehyde, ethene and acetylene together with NO on the same Cu⁺ site in zeolite CuZSM-5 was investigated by DFT calculations. The aim of this study was to follow the effect of NO on activation of multiple bonds in organic molecules and the effect of organic molecules on the activation of NO bond. The extent of activation of CO, CC, CC as well as of NO bonds was characterized by the result of calculation as the elongation of the multiple bonds, decrease of bond order as the decrease of stretching frequency, while population analysis gave information on the mechanism of activation. It has been found that the presence of NO co-adsorbed on the same Cu⁺ site as organic molecule resulted in more effective activation of CO bond in acetone and formaldehyde, but resulted in a less effective activation of CC and CC bond in ethane and acetylene. On the other hand, the presence of organic molecule resulted in more effective activation of NO bond (more important bond weakening) in NO molecule. The most significant NO bond weakening took place if NO was co-adsorbed with acetone or formaldehyde. Both acetone and formaldehyde transmit the most negative charge to the Cu⁺-zeolite system if adsorbed “solo” in Cu-zeolite. This negative charge may be next transmitted to antibonding NO orbitals resulting in so important NO bond weakening.     

Steric effects of substituted quinolines on lithium coordination geometry

The X-ray crystal structures of a series of lithium quinolates – lithium 8-hydroxyquinolinate (Liq), lithium 2-methyl-8-hydroxyquinolinate (MeLiq), and 2-phenyl-8-hydroxquinolinate (PhLiq), are compared. The substitution at the 2-position of the 8-hydroxyquinoline ligand has significant impact on the aggregation of the lithium complex in the crystalline state. Liq and MeLiq molecules crystallize as hexamers, whereas PhLiq crystallizes as a tetramer. The possible influence of crystal-packing forces on the preferred cluster structure was probed using density functional theory calculations on a systematically varied set of Liq, MeLiq, and PhLiq clusters. For Liq and MeLiq, the observed structures match the most stable computed structures. In the PhLiq case, the observed tetrameric structure is computed to be less stable (+1.2 kcal/mol/monomer) than the lowest energy structure, a hexamer. In this case, solid-state effects probably outweigh small differences in cluster stability.     

Cobalt Chalcogenide Clusters. Synthesis,Characterization and DFT Calculations of [Co4Se2(CO)10] and [Co4Te2(CO)11]. Crystal Structure of [Co8Se4(CO)16(μ‐dppa)2]

The reactions of [Co₂(CO)₈] with E(SiMe₃)₂ (E = Se, Te) in CH₂Cl₂ result in the formation of the compounds [Co₄Se₂(CO)₁₀]> ( 1 ) and [Co₄Te₂(CO)₁₁] ( 2 ), respectively. Both cluster complexes have similar molecular structures in which the cobalt atoms form four‐membered rings with μ₄‐bridging chalcogen atoms (Se and Te) above and below the plane of the metal atoms and the carbonyl ligands as either terminal or μ₂‐bridging ligands. DFT‐calculations for both compounds have been carried out in order to obtain some more information about their electronic distribution. In the presence of the phosphine Ph₂PC≡CPPh₂ (dppa), the reaction of [Co₂(CO)₈] with Se(SiMe₃)₂ leads to the formation of [Co₈Se₄(CO)₁₆(μ‐dppa)₂] ( 3 ). During the reaction two molecules of [Co₂(CO)₈] have been added to the acetylene groups of the dppa ligands, whilst the remaining cobalt atoms coordinate to the phosphorus atoms of the phosphine. In this compounds the selenium atoms act as μ₃‐ligands, bridging the metal atoms bonded to the phosphorus with those bonded to the acetylene groups.     

The reactions of 2-benzoylpyridine with [RuHCl(CO)(PPh3)3] and [(C6H6)RuCl2]2

The reactions of [RuHCl(CO)(PPh₃)₃] and [(C₆H₆)RuCl₂]₂ with 2-benzoylpyridine have been examined, and two novel ruthenium(II) complexes – [RuCl(CO)(PPh₃)₂(C₅H₄NCOO)] and [RuCl₂(C₁₂H₉NO)₂] – have been obtained. The compounds have been studied by IR and UV–Vis spectroscopy, and X-ray crystallography. The molecular orbital diagrams of the complexes have been calculated with the density functional theory (DFT) method. The spin-allowed singlet–singlet electronic transitions of the compounds have been calculated with the time-dependent DFT method, and the UV–Vis spectra of the compounds have been discussed on this basis.

Density functional theory study of the reaction paths of reactions of CH3C(O)O2 radicals with HO2 in the gas phase

A DFT study on the reactions between CH₃C(O)O₂ and HO₂ radicals has been carried out. It is suggested that both the triplet and singlet potential surfaces involve a complex mechanism with the formation of loosely bound intermediate complexes of reactants and products. The reaction prefers to occur on the triplet surface to produce peracetic acid (CH₃C(O)O₂H) and triplet O₂ molecule. The CH₃C(O)O₂H can further convert into CH₃C(O)O and HO radicals.

Low-Complexity Alternatives to the Optimal Linear Coding Scheme for Transmitting ARMA Sources

In the era of the Internet of Things, there are many applications where numerous devices are deployed to acquire information and send it to analyse the data and make informed decisions. In these applications, the power consumption and price of the devices are often an issue. In this work, analog coding schemes are considered, so that an ADC is not needed, allowing the size and power consumption of the devices to be reduced. In addition, linear and DFT-based transmission schemes are proposed, so that the complexity of the operations involved is lowered, thus reducing the requirements in terms of processing capacity and the price of the hardware. The proposed schemes are proved to be asymptotically optimal among the linear ones for WSS, MA, AR and ARMA sources.
