The onset of COVID-19, coupled with the finer lens placed on systemic racial disparities within our society, has resulted in increased discussions around mental health. Despite this, mental health struggles in research are still often viewed as individual weaknesses and not the result of a larger dysfunctional research culture. Mental health interventions in the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) academic community often focus on what individuals can do to improve their mental health instead of focusing on improving the research environment. In this paper, we present four aspects of research that may heavily impact mental health based on our experiences as research scientists: bullying and harassment; precarity of contracts; diversity, inclusion, and accessibility; and the competitive research landscape. Based on these aspects, we propose systemic changes that institutions must adopt to ensure their research culture is supportive and allows everyone to thrive. 相似文献

The study on the mechanism of the gas-phase elimination or thermal decomposition kinetics of 2, 2-dimethyl-3-butenal has been carried out by using theoretical calculation at MP2, combined ab initio CBSQB3 and DFT (B3LYP, B3PW91, MPW1PW91, PBEPBE, PBE1PBE, CAMB3LYP, M06, B97d) levels of theory. A good reasonable agreement between experimental and calculated parameters was obtained by using CAMB3LYP/6-311G(d,pd) calculations. The contrasted calculated parameters against experimental values suggested decarbonylation reaction to proceed through a concerted five-membered cyclic transition state type of mechanism, involving the hydrogen transfer from the carbonyl carbon to the gamma carbon, consistent with observed kinetic isotope effect. The breaking of alpha carbon–carbonyl carbon bond to produce carbon monoxide is 50% advanced in the transition state. The reaction mechanism may be described as a concerted moderately non-synchronous process. Examination of the Atoms in Molecules (AIM) analysis of electron density supports the suggested mechanism. 相似文献

Thermal decomposition kinetics of dicyclopentadiene‐1,8‐dione 7 implied an intramolecular competition between α,β‐ and β,γ‐double bond to assist the CO elimination. Experimental thermolysis of 7 in dioxane gave 3a,7a‐dihydro‐1H‐inden‐1‐one (cis‐bicyclo[4.3.0]nona‐2,4,7‐triene‐9‐one), CO gas, and a very small amount of indanone. This result suggested β,γ‐double bond favored the extrusion of CO gas. Calculations of several density functional theory (DFT) levels of theory and CBS‐QB3 method were employed. Two mechanisms were considered: a one‐step concerted pathway and a stepwise mechanism involving [1,3] and [1,5] hydrogen sigmatropic migrations. The CAM‐B3LYP/6‐31G(d,p) calculation reasonably agrees with the experimental kinetic parameters. The mechanism appears to be unimolecular in one step concerted through a five‐membered cyclic transition state. Isomerization of product cis‐bicyclo[4.3.0]nona‐2,4,7‐triene‐9‐one yielding 1‐indanone is presented and described. Calculation from substrate 7 may explain in a similar way the mechanism of decomposition of compounds 1‐6 . The present work may well promote to the possibility of carrying out experimental research works on the thermal decarbonylation kinetics in a liquid solution and in the gas phase of β,γ‐unsaturated aliphatic ketones. 相似文献

The gas‐phase elimination kinetics of tetrahydropyranyl phenoxy ethers: 2‐phenoxytetrahydro‐2H‐pyran, 2‐(4‐methoxyphenoxy)tetrahydro‐2H‐pyran, and 2‐(4‐tert‐butylphenoxy)tetrahydro‐2H‐pyran were determined in a static system, with the vessels deactivated with allyl bromide, and in the presence of the free radical inhibitor toluene. The working temperature and pressure were 330 to 390°C and 25 to 89 Torr, respectively. The reactions yielded DHP and the corresponding 4‐substituted phenol. The eliminations are homogeneous, unimolecular, and satisfy a first‐order rate law. The Arrhenius equations for decompositions were found as follows:
- 2‐phenoxytetrahydro‐2H‐pyran
- log k1 (s?1) = (14.18 ± 0.21) ? (211.6 ± 0.4) kJ mol?1 (2.303 RT)?1
- 2‐(4‐methoxyphenoxy)tetrahydro‐2H‐pyran
- log k1 (s?1) = (14.11 ± 0.18) ? (203.6 ± 0.3) kJ mol?1 (2.303 RT)?1
- 2‐(4‐tert‐butylphenoxy)tetrahydro‐2H‐pyran
- log k1 (s?1) = (14.08 ± 0.08) ? (205.9 ± 1.0) kJ mol?1 (2.303 RT)?1

Keto–enol tautomeric equilibrium and the mechanism of thermal conversion of 2- and 4-hydroxyacetophenone in gas phase have been studied by means of electronic structure calculations using density functional theory (DFT). A topological analysis of electron density evidence that the structure of keto and enol forms of 2-hydroxyacetophenone are stabilised by a relatively strong intramolecular hydrogen bond. 2- and 4-hydroxyacetophenone undergo deacetylation reactions yielding phenol and ketene. Two possible mechanisms are considered for these eliminations: the process takes place from the keto form (mechanism A), or occurs from the enolic form of the substrate (mechanism B). Quantum chemical calculations support the mechanism B, being found a good agreement with the experimental activation parameters. These results suggest that the rate-limiting step is the reaction of the enol through a concerted, non-synchronous, semi-polar, four-membered cyclic transition state (TS). The most advanced reaction coordinate in the TS is the rupture of O1···H1 bond, with an evolution in the order of 79.7%–80.9%. Theoretical results also suggest a three-step mechanism for the phenyl acetate formation from 2-hydroxyacetophenone. 相似文献
