Abstract: | Quantum chemical simulation in the framework of the density functional theory (PBE functional, TZV2p basis set for valence
electrons and SBK-JC pseudopotentials for core electrons) of the mechanism of catalytic hydrogenation of Nb2O on palladium cis-dihydride (Meb2PCHb2CHb2PMeb2)PdHb2 by para-hydrogen predicts that the process proceeds with retention of proton spin correlation inherent in para-hydrogen and
is characterized by a relatively low activation energy (17.7 kcal molb-1) in the key step. This offers the principal opportunity for the chemical synthesis of para-water, the nuclear spin isomer
of water with antiparallel proton spins. |
