Structure and Vibrational Spectroscopy of 2-Methylallyl Alcohol

The intramolecular O−H…πhydrogen bond has garnered significant research interest in recent decades.In this work,we utilized the infrared(IR)-vacuum-ultraviolet(VUV)nonresonant ionization detected IR spectroscopy(NRID-IR)method to study the molecular structure of neutral and cationic 2-methylallyl alcohol(MAA,CH_(2)=C(CH_(3))−CH_(2)−OH).Density functional theory calculations revealed five stable neutral and three stable cationic MAA conformers,respectively.Two neutral MAA conformers are expected to have an O−H…πintramolecular hydrogen bond interaction,based on the structural characterization that the OH group is directed toward the C=C double bond.The IR spectra of both neutral(2700−3700 cm^(−1))and cationic MAA(2500−7200 cm^(−1))were measured,and the anharmonic IR spectra were calculated at the B3LYP-D3(BJ)/def2-TZVPP level.The OH stretching vibration frequency of neutral MAA was observed at 3656 cm−1,slightly lower than those of methanol and ethanol.In contrast,the OH stretching vibration of cationic MAA was red-shifted by about 140 cm^(−1)compared to neutral MAA.The interaction region indicator and natural bond orbital analysis suggest that the O−H…πinteraction in neutral MAA is weak,and may not play a major role in stabilizing the neutral MAA.

Non-additivity of Methyl Group in the Single-electron Lithium Bond of H3C… Li-H Complex

The non-additivity of the methyl groups in the single-electron lithium bond was investigated using ab initio calculations at the B3LYP/6-311＋＋G＊＊ and UMP2/6-311＋＋G＊＊ levels. The strength of the interaction in the H3C… LiH, H3CH2C… LiH, （H3C）2HC… LiH, and u v （H3C）3C… LiH complexes was analyzed in term of the geometries, energies, frequency shifts, stabilization energies, charges, and topological parameters. It is shown that （H3C）3C radical with LiH forms the strongest single-electron lithium bond, followed by （H3C）2HC radical, then H3CH2C radical, and H3C radical forms the weakest single-electron lithium bond. A positive non-additivity is present among methyl groups. Natural bond orbital and atoms in molecules analyses were used to estimate such conclusions. Furthermore, there are few linear/nonlinear relationships in the system and the interaction mode of single-electron Li- bond is different from the single-electron H-bond and single-electron halogen bond.

SEMI-EMPIRICAL CALCULATION FOR ELECTRONIC STRUCTURE OF C60 CLUSTER BY MOLECULAR DYNAMICS AND MNDO APPROACH

The electronic structure for C 60 was semi empirically investigated by using MD (molecular dynamics) and MNDO (modified neglect of diatomic overlap) approach of quantum chemistry.Especially,taking both σ and π orbitals into account,one electron energy levels,those symmetries and π orbital occupancies as well as electron excitation energies for different select rules,cohesive energy,ionization energies and electronic affinity forces were calculated.The obtained molecular orbital ratio shows a wide separation of σ and π types,and near HOMO and LUMO levels there are π orbitals mainly.The calculated semi empirical calculation results are in good agreement with experimental and ab initio calculation data.

Electron Momentum Spectroscopy of Valence Orbitals of n-Propyl Iodide： Spin-Orbit Coupling Effect and Intramolecular Orbital Interaction

The binding energy spectrum and electron momentum distributions for the outer valence orbitals of n-propyl iodide molecule have been measured using the electron momentum spectrometer employing non-coplanar asymmetric geometry at impact energy of 2.5 keV plus binding energy. The ionization bands have been assigned in detail via the high accuracy SACCI general-R method calculation and the experimental momentum profiles are compared with the theoretical ones calculated by Hartree-Fock and B3LYP/aug-cc-pVTZ（C,H）6-311G？？（I）. The spin-orbit coupling effect and intramolecular orbital interaction have been analyzed for the outermost two bands, which are assigned to the iodine 5p lone pairs, using NBO method and non-relativistic as well as relativistic calculations. It is found that both of the interactions will lead to the observed differences in electron momentum distributions. The experimental results agree with the relativistic theoretical momentum profiles, indicating that the spin-orbit coupling effect dominates in n-propyl iodide molecule.

Theoretical study of NO adsorbed on the surface of TiO2（110） cluster model

The chemisorption properties of N^18O adsorption on TiO2(110) surface were investigated by experimental and theoretical methods. The results of temperature programmed desorption (TPD) indicated that the temperatures of the three desorption peaks of the main N2 molecules were at (low) temperature of 230 K, 450 K, and (high) temperature of 980 K. This meant that N^18O decomposed and recombined during the process of N2 desorption after N^18O was exposed. Analysis of thestable combination and orbital theory calculation of the surface reaction of NO adsorption on the TiO2(110) cluster modelshowed that there was clear preference for the Ti-NO orientation.

Study on the Mechanisms for Baeyer-Villiger Oxidation of Cyclohexanone with Hydrogen Peroxide in Different Systems

The green and effective Baeyer-Villiger oxidation reaction of cyclohexanone for preparing e-caprolactone is of particular importance in the synthesis of new polymer materials. We have discussed here several mechanism types of Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of cyclohexanone with H2O2 in different reaction systems. Five main types have been addressed, i. e.： （1） the non-catalyzed reaction type, where the C=O of ketones is activated by H＋, which is electrolytically dissociated from H202 and H20, to improve the capability of C=O group for accepting the electron pairs; （2） the thermally activated radical reaction type, where the Criegee intermediate is produced via two steps of radical reaction with -OH attack, with much more hydroxyl radicals being excited in the presence of TS-1 zeolite; （3） the Bronsted acid catalysis reaction type, where both O-O moiety and C=O group could be activated by BriSnsted acid; （4） the solid Lewis acid catalyzed C=O of the substrate activation reaction type through enhancing the donor-acceptor interaction between the antibonding π＊c-o orbital of cyclohexanone and HOMO of Sn-containing zeolites; and （5） the solid Lewis acid catalyzed H202 to form Me-OOH oxidative species by converting the highest occupied molecular orbital （HOMO） of Ti-OOH into a singly occupied molecular orbital （SOMO）, making the O--O group highly electrophilic to attack the C--O of cyclohexanone during the Baeyer-Villiger oxidation process. In the end, we have also compared the different mechanisms and put forward our opinions on the development direction of catalytic materials aiming at eco-friendly Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of cyclohexanone in the years to come.

DFT Study of Iron Tetraphenylporphyrin Chloride and Iron Pentafluorophenylporphyrin Chloride

The geometry optimizations and the single point energy calculations of iron tetraphenylporphyrin chloride Fe（TPP）Cl and iron tetraphenylporphyrin chloride （Fe（TPP）Cl）, iron pentafluorophenylporphyrin chloride （Fe（TPPF20）Cl） were carried out by using the Density Functional Theory （DFT） UB3LYP with STO-3G^＊ and 6-31G^＊ basis sets, respectively. The electronic properties and the structures of high-lying molecular orbitals were analyzed in detail. The results show that partial spin is transferred from the Fe atom to the porphyrin ring and some electron with the spin opposite to the unpaired electron on the Fe atom is transferred from the porphyrin ring to the Fe atom. The π and σ-type bonding between the Fe atom and the porphyin ring cause the transfer. The fluorination enhances the electron transfer and the chemical stability of the complex. The high stability is important for the complex possessing high catalytic activity. The catalysis mechanism of oxygen molecule activation on the complex surface is also discussed based on the symmetry of the molecular orbitals.

Neural Network Based on Quantum Chemistry for Predicting Melting Point of Organic Compounds

The melting points of organic compounds were estimated using a combined method that includes a backpropagation neural network and quantitative structure property relationship （QSPR） parameters in quantum chemistry. Eleven descriptors that reflect the intermolecular forces and molecular symmetry were used as input variables. QSPR parameters were calculated using molecular modeling and PM3 semi-empirical molecular orbital theories. A total of 260 compounds were used to train the network, which was developed using MatLab. Then, the melting points of 73 other compounds were predicted and results were compared to experimental data from the literature. The study shows that the chosen artificial neural network and the quantitative structure property relationships method present an excellent alternative for the estimation of the melting point of an organic compound, with average absolute deviation of 5%.

Inverted Organic Solar Cells with Improved Performance using Varied Cathode Buffer Layers

Organic solar cells with inverted planar heterojunction structure based on subphthalocya- nine and C60 were fabricated using several kinds of materials as cathode buffer layer （CBL）, including tris-8-hydroxy-quinolinato aluminum （Alq3）, bathophenanthroline （Bphen）, bathocuproine, 2,3,8,9,14,15-hexakis-dodecyl-sulfanyl-5,6,11,12,17,18-hexaazatrinaphthylene （HATNA）, and an inorganic compound of Cs2CO3. The influence of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital level and the electron mobility of organic CBL on the solar cells perfor- mance was compared. The results showed that Alq3, Bphen, and HATNA could significantly improve the device performance. The highest efficiency was obtained from device with an- nealed HATNA as CBL and increased for more than 7 times compared with device without CBL. Furthermore~ the simulation results with space charge-limited current theory indicated that the Schottky barrier at the organic/electrode interface in inverted OSC structure was reduced for 27% by inserting HATNA CBL.

Imaging Molecular Orbitals of Single Picene Molecules Adsorbed on Cu（111） Surface： a Combined Experimental and Theoretical Study

Picene, which attracts the great interest of researchers, not only can be used to fabricate thin film transistors with high hole mobilities, but also is the parent material of a new type organic superconductor. Here, we investigate the electronic properties of individual picene molecules directly adsorbed on Cu（111） surface by a combination of experimental scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy measurements and theoretical calculations based on the density functional theory. At low coverage, the picene molecules exhibit mono-dispersed adsorption behavior with the benzene ring planes parallel to the surface. The highest occupied state around -1.2 V and the lowest unoccupied state around 1.6 V with an obvious energy gap of the singly adsorbed picene molecule are identified by the dI/dV spectra and maps. In addition, we observe the strong dependence of the dI/dV signal of the unoccupied states on the intramolecular positions. Our first-principles calculations reproduce the above experimental results and interpret them as a specific molecule-substrate interaction and energy/spatial distributions of hybrid states mainly derived from different molecular orbitals of picene with some intermixing between them. This work provides direct information on the local electronic structure of individual picene on a metallic substrate and will facilitate the understanding the dependence of electron transport properties on the coupling between molecules and metal electrodes in single-molecule devices.

First-principles Study of Electron Transport Through Oligoacenes

The electronic transport properties of oligoacenes sandwiched between two Au（111） surfaces with serial and parrallel configurations were investigeted by using a fully self-consistent nonequilibrium Green＇s function method combined with density functional calculations. This theoretical results show that the conductivity of oligoacenes with both sandwiched configurations at low bias voltage is mainly determined by the tail of the transmission peak from the perturbed highest occupied molecular orbital. When the molecular length increases, the zero-bias voltage conductance G（0） of oligoacenes with serial configuration neither follows Magoga＇s exponential law nor displays the even-odd oscillation effect, while the G（O） of the oligoacenes sandwiched with parallel configuration monotonically increases. The reduction of energy gaps, the alignment of the Fermi level, and the spatial distribution of the perturbed molecular orbitals are used to self-consistently explore the transport mechanism through oligoacenes.

Electronic Couplings for Singlet Oxygen Photosensitization and Its Molecular Orbital Overlap Description

The reaction of triplet fusion,also named triplet-triplet annihilation,has attracted a lot of research interests because of its wide applications in photocatalytic,solar cells,and bioimaging.As for the singlet oxygen photosensitization,the reactive singlet oxygen species are generated through the energy transfers from photosensitizer(PS)to ground triplet oxygen molecule.In this work,we computed the electronic coupling for singlet oxygen photosensitization using the nonadiabatic coupling from the quantum chemical calculation.Then we utilized the molecular orbital(MO)overlaps to approximate it,where the MOs were computed from isolated single molecules.As demonstrated with quantitative results,this approach well describes the distribution of the coupling strength as the function of the intermolecular distance between the sensitizer and O_(2),providing us a simple but effective way to predict the coupling of triplet fusion reactions.

Theoretical Study on Xe…N non-Covalent Interactions:Three Hybridization N with XeO_(3) and XeOF_(2)

The interactions of complexes of XeOF_(2) and XeO_(3) with a series of different hybridization N-containing donors are studied by means of DFT and MP_(2) calculations.The aerogen bonding interaction energies range from 6.5 kcal/mol to19.9 kcal/mol between XeO_(3) or XeOF_(2) and typical N-containing donors.The sequence of interaction for N-containing hy-bridization is sp^(3)>sp^(2)>sp,and XeO_(3)is higher than XeOF_(2).For some donors of sp^(2)and sp^(3) hybridization,the steric effect plays a minor role in the interaction with the evidence of reduced density gradient plots.The dominant stable part is the electrostatic interaction.In complex of XeO_(3),the weight of polarization is larger than dispersion,while the situation is opposite for XeOF_(2)complexes.Except for the sum of the maximum value of molecular electrostatic potential on Xe atom and minimum value of molecular electrostatic potential on N atom,the other five interaction parameters including the potential energy density at bond critical point,the equilibrium distances,interaction energies with the basis set superposition error correction,localized molecular orbital energy decomposition analysis interaction energies,and the electron charge density,show great linear correlation coefficients with each other.
