Abstract The algorithm for generating and estimating the probability of possible reaction pathways for multichannel bimolecular interactions was used to predict the reaction products in the reagent ratio of 1:1 and 1:2. Here we have considered the possible reaction pathways of the reaction of amine ((1S,2S,4S)-bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-en-2-ylmethanamine (1) with epoxides (2-((cyclohexyloxy)methyl)oxirane (2), 2-(phenoxymethyl)oxirane (3), (N-(oxiran-2-ylmethyl)-N-phenylbenzenesulfonamide 8) in order to explain experimental observed data, which indicate differences in the reactivity of glycidyl ethers and glycidylsulfonamide with framework amines. Based on the proposed algorithm [39], we have investigated the reaction in the reagent ratio of 1:1 and 1: 2. Calculated values of activation barriers indicate a low probability of formation of interaction products of amine (1) with epoxide (8) with a (1:2) reagent ratio due to steric hindrances in the reaction center.

<div> <p></p><p>Supercritical water gasification is a promising waste-to-energy technology with the ability to convert aqueous and/or heterogeneous organic feedstocks to high-value gaseous products. Reaction behavior of complex molecules in supercritical water can be inferred through knowledge of the reaction pathways of model compounds in supercritical water.

The results suggest the dominance of chain-branching, free radical reaction mechanisms that are responsible for decomposing primary alcohols in the supercritical water environment. The presence of a catalytic surface is proposed to be highly significant for initiating radical reactions.

Focused electron beam induced processing (FEBIP) is a suite of direct-write, high resolution techniques that enable fabrication and editing of nanostructured materials inside scanning electron microscopes and other focused electron beam (FEB) systems. Here we detail continuum techniques that are used to model FEBIP, and release software that can be used to simulate a wide range of processes reported in the FEBIP literature. These include: (i) etching and deposition performed using precursors that interact with a surface through physisorption and activated chemisorption, (ii) gas mixtures used to perform simultaneous focused electron beam induced etching and deposition (FEBIE and FEBID), and (iii) etch processes that proceed through multiple reaction pathways and generate a number of reaction products at the substrate surface. We also review and release software for Monte Carlo modeling of the precursor gas flux which is needed as an input parameter for continuum FEBIP models.

The reactions of five alkali-metal salts of sulfur oxo acids with molten K2S2O7 were investigated. Na2SO3, Na2S2O3, Na2S2O4, Na2S2O5 and K2S2O3 reacted with molten K2S2O7 to form sulfate, elemental sulfur and SO2 as the final reaction products. Reaction pathways have been postulated to explain the final products. The stoichiometries of the reactions have been determined.

<div> <p>Supercritical water gasification is a promising waste-to-energy technology with the ability to convert aqueous and/or heterogeneous organic feedstocks to high-value gaseous products, e.g., green hydrogen. Reaction behavior of complex molecules in supercritical water can be inferred through knowledge of the reaction pathways of model compounds in supercritical water. In this study methanol, ethanol, and isopropyl alcohol are gasified in a continuous supercritical water reactor at temperatures between 500 and 560 °C, and for residence times between 3 and 8 s. <i>In situ</i> Raman spectroscopy is used to rapidly identify and quantify reaction products. The experiments confirm the dominance of chain-branching, free radical reaction mechanisms that are responsible for decomposing primary alcohols in the supercritical water environment. Reaction pathways and mechanisms for three alcohols are proposed, conversion metrics are presented, and results are compared with known reaction mechanisms for methanol and ethanol oxidation.</p> </div> <br>

Two different cases, (1) thermal initiation and (2) collisionless IR multiple photon (MP) initiation, of initiating the model reaction of the successive decay of polyatomic molecules ABC → AB + C,AB → A + B are considered for the case when the intermediate product AB is desired. In the case when the desired product AB is thermally less stable than the original one ABC the high output of AB under the thermal initiation is impossible. However by means of IR MP initiation one can obtain a high yield of the desired product, i.e., nearly 100%. The reduction of the chemical reaction pathways takes place for the IR MP initiation. This is due to the extreme intermolecular nonequilibrium achieved under IR MP initiation of the reaction. Unlike the thermal initiation when all the reaction products are of equally high temperature, under IR MP initiation the temperature of the intermediate product TAB is lower than that of the original one TABC and a further decay of the AB species does not occur.

Summary The reactions of chromophoric model compounds of the coniferaldehyde type with hydrogen peroxide and peracetic acid have been investigated in relation to lignin-retaining bleaching. Analysis of the main reaction products indicated that the side chain of coniferaldehyde could cleave either between the α, β double bond or between the β, γ bond. Comparison of possible reaction pathways to the formation of oxidation products from hydrogen peroxide and peracetic acid suggested that peracetic acid is more effective than hydrogen peroxide. Advantages of peracetic acid over hydrogen peroxide include a faster rate of reaction, more efficient utilization of the bleaching agent and less likelihood of producing new chromophores.

Abstract The evolution of life from the prebiotic environment required a gradual process of chemical evolution towards greater molecular complexity. Elaborate prebiotically-relevant synthetic routes to the building blocks of life have been established. However, it is still unclear how functional chemical systems evolved with direction using only the interaction between inherent molecular chemical reactivity and the abiotic environment. Here, we demonstrate how complex systems of chemical reactions exhibit well-defined self-organisation in response to varying environmental conditions. This self-organisation allows the compositional complexity of the reaction products to be controlled as a function of factors such as feedstock and catalyst availability. We observe how Breslow’s cycle contributes to the reaction composition by feeding C2 building blocks into the network, alongside reaction pathways dominated by formaldehyde-driven chain growth. The emergence of organised systems of chemical reactions in response to changes in the environment offers a potential mechanism for a chemical evolution process that bridges the gap between prebiotic chemical building blocks and the origin of life.
