A time-of-flight mass spectrometer was used to detect the cluster distributions before and after the interactions with H2S. The experiments suggest that oxygen-for-sulfur (O/S) ex- change reaction to release water took place in the reactor for most of the manganese oxide cluster cations: MnmlSOn++H2S→Mnm18On-1S++H218O. Density functional theory cal- culations were performed for reaction mechanisms of Mn202++H2S, Mn203++H2S, and Mn204++H2S. The computational results indicate these O/S exchange reactions are both thermodynamically and kinetically favorable, thus in good agreement with the experimental observations. The O/S exchange reactions identified in this gas-phase cluster study parallel similar behavior of related condensed phase reaction systems.展开更多

This molecule exhibits a gauche conformation, and the torsional angle around S-S bond is 91.4° due to the sulfur-sulfur lone pair interactions. After ionization, the ground-state cationic-radical form of CCl3SSCN+ adopts a trans planar main-atom structure with Cs symmetry. The highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) of CC13SSCN corresponds to the electrons mainly localized on the sulfur 3p lone pair MO. The first ionization energy is determined to be 10.40 cV.展开更多
