Ab initio MO study of reaction mechanism for carbonyl migration of Co complex

Ab initio method under the effective core potential (ECP) approximation is employed to study the reaction mechanism of carbonyl migration of the cycle of olefin hydroformylation catalyzed by a carbonyl cobalt HCo(CO)3 at Hartree-Fock (HF) level. The structures of the reactant, transition state and product for the reaction are determined. The energy of each stationary point is corrected at MP2/LAN2DZ//LANL2DZ+ZPE (zero-point energy) level. The calculated activation barrier is 28.89 kJ/mol.     

Theoretical study on photophysical property of C60M（CO）5 （M=Cr,Mo and W）

Configurations of three η2 models of transition-metal [60]fullerene derivatives C60M（CO）5（M=Cr, Mo and W） have been optimized at B3LYP/LanL2DZ level. On the basis of the optimized geometrical structures, their electronic spectra and the frequency dependence of third-order nonlinear optical polarizabilities γ in different optical processes of third-harmonic generation （THG）, electric-field-induced second-harmonic generation （EFISHG） and degenerate four-wave mixing （DFWM） are calculated by using TDB3LYP model based on LanL2DZ level coupled with the SOS （sum-over-state） method. The obtained results show that their electronic spectra have a red shift compared with that of [60]fullerene and different transition-metal functional groups added to C60 cage may result in different spectrum properties. For the three studied species, （η^2-C60）Mo（CO）5 has the largest third-order nonlinear optical polarizability.     

Theoretic study of the reaction mechanism between （Me）3CO· radical and trans-3-hexene

The reaction mechanism between （Me）3CO· radical and trans-3-hexene in benzene was studied for the first time at the B3LYP/6-311＋＋G（d,p）//B3LYP/6-31G（d）＋ZPVE level. Two distinct elementary channels were identified as： （1） abstraction-addition; （2） addition-addition-elimination. Analysis of the potential energy surface demonstrates that for the title reaction, channels （1） and （2） have the major and minor contribution, respectively. Our calculated results can well explain the recently observed product distribution by Coseri et al. （J. Org. Chem. 2005, 70, 4629）. However, we found that the addition-abstraction channel proposed by Coseri et al. is kinetically infeasible.     

In situ time-resolved FTIR investigation on the reaction mechanism of partial oxidation of methane to syngas over supported Rh and Ru catalysts

In situ time-resolved FTIR spectroscopy was used to study the reaction mechanism of partial oxidation of methane (POM) to synthesis gas and the reaction of CH₄/O₂/He (2/1/45, molar ratio) gas mixture with adsorbed CO species over Rh/SiO₂, Ru/γ-Al₂O₃ and Ru/SiO₂ catalysts at 500—600℃. It was found that CO is the primary product of POM reaction over reduced and working state Rh/SiO₂ catalysts. Direct oxidation of CH₄ is the main pathway of synthesis gas formation over Rh/SiO₂ catalyst. CO₂ is the primary product of POM over Ru/γ-Al₂O₃ and Ru/SiO₂ catalysts. The dominant reaction pathway for synthesis gas formation over Ru/γ-Al₂O₃ catalyst is via the reforming reactions of CH₄ with CO₂ and H₂O. For the POM reaction over Rh/SiO₂ and Ru/γ-Al₂O₃ catalysts, consecutive oxidation of surface CO species is an important pathway of CO₂ formation.     

Magnetoelectric and converse magnetoelectric res ponses in TbxDy1-xFe2-y alloy ＆ Pb（Mg1/3Nb2/3）（1-x）TixO3 crystal laminated composites

Measured results of magnetoelectric （ME） and converse magnetoelectric （CME） effects of TbxDy1-xFe2-y/ Pb（Mg1/3Nb2/3）（1-x）TixO3/TbxDy1-xFe2-y （TD/PMNT/TD） and PMNT/TD/PMNT laminated composites are presented. ME effect was determined by measuring laminate voltage output under a Helmholtz-generated AC field biased by a DC field （0-1 kOe） （1Oe = 79.58 A/m）. The CME effect was measured by recording the voltage induced in a solenoid encompassing the ME sample while exposed to a DC bias field and PMNT layer driven by a 10 V AC source. The ME and CME responses in the two laminated structure are linear. The highest values of ME coefficients in TD/PMNT/TD and PMNT/TD/PMNT composites are 384 mV/Oe and 158 mV/Oe, respectively, while the highest values of CME coefficients in the two composites are 118 mG/V and 162 mG/V （1 G=10^-4 T）, respectively.     

Density functional theory study on the insertion reaction mechanism of dibromocarbene with formaldehyde

The insertion reaction mechanism of CBr2 with CH3CH2O has been studied by using the B3LYP/6-311G(d) and CCSD(T)/6-311G(d) at single point. The geometries of reactions,transition state and products were completely optimized. All the transition state is verified by the vibrational analysis and the internal re-action coordinate (IRC) calculations. The results show that reaction (1) is the dominant reaction path,which proceeds via two steps: i) two reactants form an intermediate (IM1),which is an exothermal re-action of 8.62 kJ·mol?1 without energy barrier; ii) P1 is obtained via the TS1 and the H-shift,in which the energy barrier is 44.53 kJ·mol?1. The statistical thermodynamics and Eyring transition state theory with Wigner correction are used to study the thermodynamic and kinetic characters of this reaction in temperature range from 100 to 2200 K. The results show that the appropriate reaction temperature ranges from 200 to 1900 K at 1.0 atm,in which the reaction has a bigger spontaneity capability,equi-librium constant (K) and higher rate constant (k).     

Studies on the reaction between Laccase ando-methoxyphenol by microcalorimetry

The reaction between Laccase ando-methoxyphenol have been studied by LKB-2107 batch microcalorimetry system. Thermodynamic parameters Δ _r H _m , ΔG _o , ΔG _T ^≠ and kinetic parameters (K _m ,k ₂) have been determined. The process of the reaction has been analyzed from changes in energy by using the transition state theory. Two methods for enhancing catalytic power of Laccase are proposed. The results shown that formation of an enzyme-substrate complex is “anticatalytic”. The enter and sole source of catalytic power is the stabilization of transition state; reactant-state interactions are by nature inhibitory and only waste catalytic power.

A theoretical study of the proton transfer process in the spin-forbidden reaction ^1HNO（^1A＇） ＋ OH^-→^ 3NO^-（^3∑^-） ＋ H2O

The spin-forbidden reaction 1HNO（^1A＋OH^-→3NO^-（^3∑^-）＋H2O has been extensively explored using vari- ous CASSCF active spaces with MP2 corrections in several basis sets. Natural bond orbital （NBO） analysis, together with the NBO energetic （deletion） analysis, indicates that the two isomers have nearly equal total energy and could compete with each other in the title reaction. More significantly, the singlet/triplet surface crossing regions have been examined and the spin-orbit coupling （SOC） and energetics have been computed. The computational results indicate that the SOC is very large at the crossing point T1/S0 trans （ca. 40.9 cm^-1）. Moreover, the T1/S0 trans has a low energy of 10.67 kcal/mol relative to that of trans-So. Therefore, the surface crossing to the triplet state seems much more efficient at the T1/S0 trans region along the minimum energy path （MEP）, However, The values of single （P1^ISC） and double （P2^ISC） passes estimated at T1/S0 trans show that the ISC occurs with a little probability.     

Heteroseneous oxidation of carbonyl sulfide on mineral oxides

Heterogeneous oxidation of carbonyl sulfide （OCS） on mineral oxides including SiO2, Fe2O3, CaO, MgO, ZnO and TiO2, which are the main components of atmospheric particles, were investigated using in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy （in situ DRIFTS）, ion chromatography （IC）, temperature-programmed desorption （TPD）, X-ray diffraction （XRD） and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller （BET） methods. The main products and intermediates of the heterogeneous oxidation of OCS on these oxides were identified with in situ DRIFTS and IC. The reaction mechanism and kinetics were also discussed. It is found that the reaction mechanism on these mineral oxides is the same as that on Al2O3 for the same final products and the intermediates at room temperature. Namely, OCS can be catalytically oxidized to produce surface SO4^2- species and gaseous CO2 through the surface hydrogen thiocarbonate （HSCO2-） and HSO; species. The activity series for heterogeneous oxidation of OCS follows： Al2O3 ≈ CaO 〉 MgO 〉 TiO2 ≈ ZnO 〉 Fe2O3 〉 SiO2. The specific area, basic hydroxyl and surface basicity of these oxides have effect on the reactivity. This study suggests that heterogeneous reactions of OCS on mineral dust may be an unneglectable sink of OCS.

Electronic structure of doped trans-polyacetylene

The behavior of electronic structures of doped trans-polyacetylene is revealed by a simple method. (C₂₄H₂₆)⁺ⁿ is used to simulate p-type doped trans-polyacetylene at various doping concentrations. The electronic structure is calculated, by CNDO/2 method. These calculations show that at low doping level, the decrease of electronic energy compensates the increase of elastic energy, thus the bond alternation exists, and the charge carriers are solitons. When doping level is high, the increase of elastic energy is larger than the decrease, of electronic energy, the bond alternation disappears, solitons no longer exist, and polyacetylene is in a metalic state.

Research of Inclusion Complexation of 4,4＇-Thiodiphenol Effected by β-Cyclodextrin in Aqueous Solutions and the Effect on Photodegradation

The inclusion behavior of 4, 4＇ -Thiodiphenol （TDP）, a typical bisphenol and endocrine disruptor, reacts with β-cyclodextrin （β-CD） in aqueous solutions has been investigated by means of UV absorption spectrum and quantum-chemical calculation with Gaussian 98 software. The results show that the inclusion behavior of TDP is quite different in acidic solutions （pH 5.9） from that in alkaline solutions （pH 10.0）. This behavior difference is attributed to the different formula structures in aqueous solutions at acidic and alkaline pH values that are demonstrated by quantum- chemical modeling and calculation. TDP forms a 1 ： 1 fl-CD inclusion complex in aqueous solutions. The equiiibrium constant K was calculated to be 553.49 L/mol at pH 5.9 and 1 318.20 L/mol at pH 10.0 respectively for the inclusion complex reaction by using the modified Benesi-Heldbrand equation. After inclusion TDP＇s structure is changed especially at the inclusion part with the bond order becoming larger, which results in inhibitive photodegradation during direct photooxidation and H2O2 assisted photooxidation.     

Microcalorimetric investigation of effect of berberine alkaloids from Coptis chinensis Franch on intestinal diagnostic flora growth

The inhibitory effect of three berberine alkaloids (BAs) from Coptis chinensis Franch, a traditional Chinese medicinal (TCM) herb, on Bifidobacterium adolescentis growth was investigated by microcalorimetry. The power-time curves of B. adolescentis with and without BAs were acquired, meanwhile the extent and duration of inhibitory effect on the metabolism were evaluated by the growth rate constant (k), half inhibitory ratio (IC₅₀), maximum heat-output power (P _max), peak time of maximum heat-output power (t _p) and total heat production (Q _t). k, P _max and Q _t decreased, and t _p was prolonged with the increase of BAs concentration. The IC₅₀ of BAs is 806 μg/mL for berberine, 341 μg/mL for coptisine and 236 μg/mL for palmatine. The sequence of antimicrobial activity of BAs is berberine < coptisine < palmatine. Combined with previous studies, it could be shown that the sequences of antimicrobial activity of BAs on both Bacillus shigae and Escherichia coli are berberine > coptisine > palmatine. The structure-function relationship of BAs indicates that the functional group methylenedioxy or methoxyl at C2 and C3 might be the major group inducing the activities of BAs on E. coli and B. adolescentis. Meanwhile, the substituent groups at C2, C3, C9 and C10 almost have equal effect on B. shigae.

The expression analysis showed that the gene is expressed obviously higher in prostate than in other 15 human tissues.     

An in-situ DRIFTS study in the reaction between NO x and soot on BaAl2O4

The interactions between NO, O2 and their mixture on BaAl2O4, as well as the reaction of NOx with soot in the presence of O2, have been investigated using Diffuse Reflectance Infrared Fourier Transform Spectroscopy （DRIFTS）. NO adsorption produces only nitrites species in the absence of O2. NO2 adsorption produces nitrates species besides nitrites species. The produced nitrites will further react with O2, Osurf^-. and Olattice^2- to form nitrates. The reaction of NOx with soot begins with the reaction of nitrates with soot oxygenated complex （C（O））, which is regarded as the key and rate determining step. A reaction pathway is proposed for the catalyzed reaction of NOx with soot in the presence of O2.     

Quantum chemical and topological study on the insertion reaction of dichlorcarbene with acetaldehyde

The insertion reaction mechanisms of siglet and striglet CCI2 with CH3CHO have been studied by using the DFT, NBO, CCSD（T） and AIM method. The geometries of reactions, transition state and products were completely optimized by B3LYP/6-31G（d）. All the energy of the species was obtained at the CCSD（T）/6-31G（d,p） level. The calculated results indicated that all the major pathways of the reaction were obtained on the singlet potential energy surface. The singlet CCl2 can not only insert the Cα--H （reaction I） but also can react with Cβ--H （reaction ll）. There are three main existing pathways and the products are P1 （CH3COHCCl2）, P2 （CH2COHCHCl2） and P4[CHCl2CHCHOH] respectively. Reaction II happens more easily according to the energy changes and the barrier in rate-controlling step. In addition, the important geometries in domain pathways have been studied by AIM theory. And also, the energy changes of H in the inserted C--H bond have been investigated.     

Chemical states of the atoms in magnetic multilayers Ta/NiO x /Ni81Fe19/Ta and Co/AlO x /Co

Ta/NiO _x /Ni₈₁Fe₁₉/Ta and Co/AlO _x /Co multilayers were prepared by rf reactive and dc magnetron sputtering. The exchange coupling field (H _ex) and the coercivity (H _c) of NiO _x /Ni₈₁Fe₁₉ as a function of the ratio of Ar to O₂ during the deposition process were studied. The composition and chemical states at the interface region of NiO _x /NiFe were also investigated using the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and peak decomposition technique. The results show that when the ratio of Ar to O₂ is equal to 7 and the argon sputtering pressure is 0.57 Pa, the x value is approximately 1 and the valence of nickel is +2. At this point, NiO _x is antiferromagnetic NiO and the corresponding H_ex is the largest. As the ratio of Ar/O₂ deviates from 7, the H _ex will decrease due to the presence of magnetic impurities such as Ni⁺³ or metallic Ni at the interface region of NiO _x /NiFe, while the H _c will increase due to the metallic Ni. Al layers in Co/AlO _x /Co multilayers were also studied by angle-resolved XPS. Our finding is that the bottom Co could be completely covered by depositing an Al layer about 1.8 nm. The thickness of AlO _x was 1.2 nm.     

邻香草醛缩胱氨酸双Schiff碱的合成及其对粟酒裂殖酵母细胞生长代谢的热动力学研究

Density functional theory calculation on the C―H bond insertion reaction of dibromocarbene with acetaldehyde

The insertion reaction mechanism of CBr2 with CH3CHO has been studied by using the B3LYPI6-31G（d） method. The geometries of reactions, transition state and products were completely optimized. All the energy of the species was obtained at the CCSD（T）/6-31G（d） level. All the transition state is verified by the vibrational analysis and the internal reaction coordinate （IRC） calculations. The results show that the propionaldehyde （Hp1） is the main product of CH2 insertion with CH3CHO. The calculated results indicated that all the major pathways of the reaction were obtained on the singlet potential energy surface. The singlet CBr2 not only can insert the Cα-H [reaction I（1）]） but also can react with Cβ-H [reaction l1（1）]. The statistical thermodynamics and Eyring transition state theory with Wigner correc-tion are used to study the thermodynamic and kinetic characters of I（1） and I1（1） in temperature range from 100 to 2200 K. The results show that the appropriate reaction temperature rang is 250 to 1750 K and 250 to 1600 K at 1.0 atm for I（1） and I1（1） respectively. The rate constant and equilibrium constant are distinct in the range from 250 to 1000 K so that I（1） more easily occurs, while the reactions are not selected in the temperature range of 1000-1600 K.
