Dynamics of Singlet Oxygen Molecule Trapped in Silica Glass Studied by Luminescence Polarization Anisotropy and Density Functional Theory

The geometries, vibrational frequencies, electronic properties and reactivity of potassium supported on SBA-15 have been theoretically investigated by the density functional theory (DFT) method. The structural model of the potassium supported on SBA-15 was constructed based on our previous work [Wang ZX, Wang DX, Zhao Z, Chen Y, Lan J, A DFT study of the structural units in SBA-15 mesoporous molecular sieve, Comput. Theor. Chem.963, 403, 2011]. This paper is the extension of our previous work. The most favored location of potassium atom was obtained by the calculation of substitution energy. The calculated vibrational frequencies of K /SBA-15 are in good agreement with the experimental results. By analyzing the properties of electronic structure, we found that the O atom of Si - O (2)- K group acts as the Lewis base center and the K atom acts as the Lewis acid center. The reactivity of K /SBA-15 was investigated by calculating the activation of oxygen molecule. The oxygen molecule can be activated by K /SBA-15 with an energy barrier of 103.2 kJ/mol. In the final state, the activated oxygen atoms become new Lewis acid centers, which are predicted to act as the active sites in the catalytic reactions. This study provides a deep insight into the properties of supported potassium catalysts and offers fundamental information for further research.

Functional Theory

In this paper, first-principles calculations based on density functional theory (DFT) have been performed to investigate the adsorption of oxygen and hydrogen on [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] surfaces covered by monolayer (ML) of [Formula: see text]. The results have shown that the oxygen molecule tends to adsorb on fcc site on both surfaces at the coverage of 0.25 ML, which becomes degeneration with hcp site when the coverage increases to 1 ML. For both oxygen and hydrogen, the adsorption on [Formula: see text] surface are stronger than those on [Formula: see text] surface. The adsorption energy difference for oxygen on the two surfaces is [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]0.2 eV at the coverage of 1 ML, which increases to [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]0.6 eV with the coverage decreasing to 0.25 ML. The similar energy difference was also found for hydrogen adsorption. The density of states analysis have demonstrated the chemical interaction of adsorbed oxygen with both pure [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] surfaces with certain shift of [Formula: see text] states to lower level compared to isolated oxygen. For hydrogen adsorption, the hybridization of [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text] states were observed for both surfaces, indicating the covalent bonding component of H–Pt bond.

Theory Calculation

The reaction-limiting process for the oxidation of SiC(0001) was investigated by density functional theory calculation. I found that the oxygen molecule insertion to the interfacial SiC bonds is the limiting process and the barrier is 3.21 eV. It is also found that the CO detachment is not limiting process because the barrier becomes small when the interfacial C atom is surrounded by three O atoms.

Abstract The electron densities of the atoms in Fe(II)-or Al(III)-tyrosine hydroxylase (THO) containing oxygen and pterin were calculated by the DFT (Density-functional theory) method. The results obtained are consistent with our previous proposal that oxygen activation in THO proceeds through the formation of an intermediate derived from Fe(II), oxygen, and pterin. Electron donation from substrate to the oxygen molecule is important to cleave the O-O bond, and to give the hydroxylated product. Based on these results, it was concluded that hydroxylation of the aromatic ring does not proceed in the Al(III)-containing THO, and a relationship exists between Al(III) ion and neurodegeneration.
