ABSTRACTPeriodic hybrid-exchange density functional theory (DFT) simulations are used to develop a predictive model of the structure of water on the rutile TiO2(110) surface (Θ ≤ 1 ML). A description of the adsorbed species is given: dissociated water molecules and either mixed or dissociative dimers. The behaviour of the adsorbates is rationalised by considering both direct intermolecular and surface-mediated interactions. Some of these results are then compared with those from water adsorption on the rutile SnO2(110) sur- face, isostructural to TiO2(110). Lastly, the electronic structure of the surface in contact with monolayer water (Θ = 1 ML) reveals the contributions of adsorbate states involved in the photocatalytic reaction that controls the water oxidation process.

Of particular interest within the +6 uranium complexes is the linear uranyl(vi) cation and it forms numerous coordination complexes in solution and exhibits incongruent redox behavior depending on coordinating ligands. This DFT study predicts VI/V reduction potentials of a range of uranyl(vi) complexes in non-aqueous solutions within ∼0.10−0.20 eV of experiment.

Treatment of the ortho-triazacyclophane 1,4-dimethyltribenzo[b,e,h][1,4,7]triazacyclonona-2,5,8-triene [(C6H5)3(NH)(NCH3)2, L1] with Fe[N(SiMe3)2]2 yields the dimeric iron(II) complex bis(μ-1,4-dimethyltribenzo[b,e,h][1,4,7]triazacyclonona-2,5,8-trien-7-ido)bis[(μ-1,4-dimethyltribenzo[b,e,h][1,4,7]triazacyclonona-2,5,8-trien-7-ido)iron(II)], [Fe(C20H18N3)4] or Fe2(L1)4 (9). Dissolution of 9 in tetrahydrofuran (THF) results in solvation by two THF ligands and the formation of a simpler monoiron complex, namely bis(μ-1,4-dimethyltribenzo[b,e,h][1,4,7]triazacyclonona-2,5,8-trien-7-ido-κN 7)bis(tetrahydrofuran-κO)iron(II), [Fe(C20H18N3)2(C4H8O)2] or (L1)2Fe(THF)2 (10). The reaction is reversible and 10 reverts in vacuo to diiron complex 9. In the structures of both 9 and 10, the monoanionic triazacyclophane ligand L1− is observed in only the less-symmetric saddle conformation. No bowl-shaped crown conformers are observed in the solid state, thus preventing chelating κ3-coordination to the metal as had been proposed earlier based on density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Instead, the L1− ligands are bound in either a η2-chelating fashion through the amide and one amine donor (for one of the four ligands of 9), or solely through their amide N atoms in an even simpler monodentate η1-coordination mode. Density functional calculations on dimer 9 revealed nearly full cationic charges on each Fe atom and no bonding interaction between the two metal centers, consistent with the relatively long Fe...Fe distance of 2.912 (1) Å observed in the solid state.

Electronic structure and optical properties of non-metals (N, S, F, P, Cl) -doped cubic NaTaO3 were investigated systematically by density functional theory (DFT). The results showed that the substitution of (N, S, P, Cl) for O in NaTaO3 was effective in narrowing the band-gap relative to the F-doped NaTaO3. The larger red shift of the absorption edge and the higher visible light absorption at about 520 nm were found for the (N and P)-doped NaTaO3. The excitation from the impurity states to the conduction band may account for the red shift of the absorption edge in an electron-deficiency non-metal doped NaTaO3. The obvious absorption in the visible light region for (N and P)-doped NaTaO3 provides an important guidance for the design and preparation of the visible light photoactive materials.
