GIAO/DFT evaluation of 13C NMR chemical shifts of selected acetals based on DFT optimized geometries

DFT/B3LYP calculations of the ground-state conformation of eight cyclic and acyclic acetals are presented and compared with experimental data. Results of single-point GIAO/DFT calculations at five different levels of theory show that isotropic shieldings need to be empirically scaled to achieve agreement with experimental chemical shifts. Statistical evaluation of data indicates that the most accurate prediction of 13C chemical shifts is achieved at the MPW1PW91/6-311G** level of theory. An empirical equation describing the relationship between delta values and shielding constants is postulated. This equation has been applied to the non-chair ground-state conformation of the six-membered acetonide and to the conformationally flexible benzodioxonine derivative. The agreement observed between the experimental and predicted chemical shifts shows that calculations at the MPW1PW91/6-311G** level of theory are adequate for addressing questions of conformation.

Promoting effect of sol-gel method and pre-treatment on the activity of SnO2/Al2O3 catalyst for NO reduction by propene

SnO₂/Al₂O₃ catalyst prepared by sol-gel method showed higher activity than those prepared by impregnation method, and their activity was significantly improved by pre-treatment in the reaction gas. The increased activity is closely related to the agglomeration of SnO₂ species and the re-exposure of Al₂O₃, which was previously covered by dispersed SnO₂ species. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

全氟烷基磺酸酯C-O键断裂的同面SN2反应

用密度泛函理论研究了CF3SO3CF2CF3 F^-的碳氧键断裂反应的机理。首先，用DFT方法优化了反应物、中间体、过渡态、产物的平衡构型，分析了碳氧键断裂反应的势能面变化，发现在SN2反应机理中，除了S-O断裂SN2反应外，引起C-O键断裂的同面进攻也是一个可能的反应途径。理论计算表明，最终反应的产物是受热力学控制的，S-O键的断裂绝对地优于C-O的断裂。因此，C-O断裂的同面机理虽然是可能的，但却难以被实验观察到，本文还讨论了端基-CF3在同面SN2反应中的邻位效应，以及基组对这个效应的影响。

Accurate Gaussian basis sets for the H2O molecule generated with the molecular improved generator coordinate Hartree–Fock method

The molecular improved generator coordinate Hartree–Fock (MIGCHF) method is used to generate accurate basis sets of primitive Gaussian-type functions for the H₂O molecule. Sequences of increasing size atom centered basis sets are employed to explore the accuracy that can be achieved with this method. Using the O(24s14p8d5f2g1h);H(22s9p5d2f1g) basis set, the HF and second-order electron correlation energies of the H₂O ground state at the experimental geometry are computed as −76.0674680 and −0.3491935 hartree, respectively. The HF energy is in error by 20 μhartree and the second-order correlation energy corresponds to 96.5% of an estimate of the limiting value. The relevance of the present calculations is to show the accuracy that can be achieved in studies of small polyatomic molecules with the MIGCHF method.
