The kinetics and mechanism of the sulfur dioxide oxidation by the oxygen in the presence of the cobalt and nickel complexes, fixed on polymer matrix

AbstractA summary of the preparation methods of 2 tautomeric and 4N-methylated benzimidazoles with a nitro group on the benzene ring (1–6) and with an amino group in the same positions (7–12) were summarized. Annular tautomerism of the title compounds1–12has been studied using1H,13C and15N NMR spectra in liquid and solid state (CPMAS), UV spectra and quantum chemical calculations.

Verification Process

The systematic exploration of synthetic pathways to afford a desired product through quantum chemical calculations remains a considerable challenge. In 2013, Maeda et al. introduced ‘quantum chemistry aided retrosynthetic analysis’ (QCaRA), which uses quantum chemical calculations to search systematically for decomposition paths of the target product and propose a synthesis method. However, until now, no new reactions suggested by QCaRA have been reported to lead to experimental discoveries. Using a difluoroglycine derivative as a target, this study investigated the ability of QCaRA to suggest various synthetic paths to the target without relying on previous data or the knowledge and experience of chemists. Furthermore, experimental verification of the seemingly most promising path led to the discovery of a synthesis method for the difluoroglycine derivative. The extent of the hands-on expertise of chemists required during the verification process was also evaluated. These insights are expected to advance the applicability of QCaRA to the discovery of viable experimental synthetic routes.

Zeolite A

Formation of CO32- and HCO3- species without participation of the framework oxygen atoms upon chemisorption of CO2 in zeolite |Na12|-A is revealed. The transfer of O and H atoms is very likely to have proceeded via the involvement of residual H2O or acid groups. A combined study by solid-state 13C MAS NMR, quantum chemical calculations, and in situ IR spectroscopy showed that the chemisorption mainly occurred by the formation of HCO3-. However, at a low surface coverage of physisorbed and acidic CO2, a significant fraction of the HCO3- was deprotonated and transformed into CO32-. We expect that similar chemisorption of CO2 would occur for low-silica zeolites and other basic silicates of interest for the capture of CO2 from gas mixtures.
