Addition Reaction of Fe(CO)_n (n = 3～5) on Fullerene C_(50), C_(60), and C_(70): A Density Functional Theory Study

The electronic structure and reactivities of Fe（CO）n （n = 3~5） addition to different fullerenes have been investigated through the first-principles calculations, and the results indicate that Fe（CO）3 and Fe（CO）4 can be adsorbed to the outside network of fullerene via hollow and bridge sites, respectively. Both of them have larger binding energy, but when Fe（CO）5 is adsorbed via the top site, the binding energy is relatively smaller. According to the directional curvature theory, the reactivities of Fe（CO）3 addition to the fullerenes are determined by KM of the ring center, and those of Fe（CO）4 addition by KD of the C–C bond curvature; while for Fe（CO）5, it presents weak reactivities in the addition reaction because of the larger volume effect. No matter whether the addition reaction takes place on the hollow or bridge site, the binding energies show a linear relationship with KD. This work further enriched the directional curvature theory and applied the isolobel analogy theory in the fullerene addition reactions.

Density Functional Theory Studies on the Mechanism of Activation Formic Acid Catalyzed by Transition Metal Oxide MoO

This paper systematically studies the reaction mechanisms of formic acid catalyzed by transition metal oxide MoO. Three different reaction pathways of Routes I, Ⅱ and Ⅲ were found through studying the reaction mechanism of transition metal oxide MoO catalyzing the formic acid. The transition metal oxide MoO interacts with the C=O double bond to form chiral chain compounds（Routes I and Ⅱ） and metallic compound MoOH2（Route Ⅲ）. In this paper, we have studied the mechanisms of two addition reaction pathways and hydrogen abstraction reaction pathway. Routes I and Ⅱ are both addition reactions, and their products are two different chiral compounds MoO3CH2, which are enantiomeric to each other. In Route Ⅲ, metal compounds MoOH2 and CO2 are obtained from the hydrogen abstraction reaction. Among them, the hydrogen abstraction reaction occurring in Route Ⅲ is more likely to occur than the others. By comparing the results of previous studies on the reaction of MxOy-＋ ROH（M= Mo,W; R = Me, Et）, we found that the hydrogen abstraction mechanism is completely different from the mechanism of oxygen-containing organic compound catalyzed by MxOy.

Addition Reactivity of C_(36) Cage Controlled by the Curvature and the Electronic Factors:A DFT Study

The molecular geometries and electronic structures of the fullerene derivatives C36（OH）n（n = 1～2） have been investigated on the basis of density functional theory calculation at the B3LYP/6-31＋＋G＊ level.The geometry optimization results indicate that the location of C2 atom is the most active site in the three potential adding patterns,and the C1 or C2 site has a larger binding energy than C3 for the addition reactions of C36（D6h） cage and OH radicals resulting from the larger curvature.The electronic structure calculation results disclose that the C2 site has larger electronic population in HOMO and larger spin density,and the addition reaction on the C2 site need overcome a lesser energy gap than that on the C1 or C3 site.Thus,the addition is controlled jointly by the curvature and the electronic factors.Besides,when two hydroxyls are added to the C36 surface,the C2 sites are also the most active locations.The most stable addition adduct of C36（OH）2 is the isomer which holds Ci symmetry,and the spin multiplicity seriously affects the stabilities of the adducts.

The Preparation and Properties of Starch Based Shape Memory Hydrogel

In this work,the–catechol and–thiol modified starch was prepared by the esterification and amino condensation reaction,then a fully starch based hydrogel was prepared via the thiol-catechol Michael addition reaction.The starch hydrogel gained shape memory behaviors by coordinate with Fe^(3+)ions at alkaline condition.1H-NMR had been used to character the structure of the starch derivatives and its character peaks.The hydrogel’s modulus had also been measured before and after coordinating with Fe^(3+)ions in linear area and the result showed that both the hydrogel’s storage modulus and loss modulus kept constant in linear area from 0.1 rad/s to 100 rad/s,which demonstrated a good network was formed inside the hydrogel.Furthermore,the shape memory behaviors had been tested by changing the pH value in solution.The result showed that the hydrogel can keep its temporary shape in high pH condition and recover to its original state after the shaped hydrogel immersed into acidic solution.This hydrogel might have great application prospects in the field of biomedical and engineering.
