Mechanism Of The Reaction

The mechanism of the reaction between propargyl radical (C3H3) and methyl radical (CH3) has been studied by the quantum chemical method using the M06-2X functional in conjunction with the aug-cc-pVTZ basis set. The potential energy surface (PES) for the C3H3 + CH3 system has been established. The calculated results indicate that the C3H3 + CH3 reaction has two main entrance channels leading to two stabilized intermediates, buta-1,2-diene and but-1-yne, which become the major intermediate products of the reaction system. From these two intermediate states, 19 different bimolecular products can be formed. For which, C2H2 + C2H4 is the most thermodynamically favorable product.

Mechanism Of The Reaction

Mechanism of the reaction between Criegee compound (CH2OO) and Propargyl radical (C3H3) has been studied by using the density functional theory DFT/M06-2X in conjunction with the 6-311++G(3df,2p) basis set for both optimization and single-point energy calculations. The calculated results indicate that mechanism of the C3H3 + CH2OO reaction can occur in two different directions: H-atom abstraction and/or addition. As a result, 11 various products have been created from this reaction; in which, P10 (OCHCHCHCHO + H) is the most thermodynamically stable product and the reaction path leading to the P7 (CH2-[cyc-CCHCHOO] + H) product is the most energetically and kinetically favorable channel.

ABSTRACT Molecular ions play an important role in the astrochemistry of interstellar and circumstellar media. C3H+ has been identified in the interstellar medium recently. A new potential energy surface of the C3H+–He van der Waals complex is computed using the ab initio explicitly correlated coupled cluster with the single, double and perturbative triple excitation [CCSD(T)-F12] method and the augmented correlation consistent polarized valence triple zeta (aug-cc-pVTZ) basis set. The potential presents a well of 174.6 cm−1 in linear geometry towards the H end. Calculations of pure rotational excitation cross-sections of C3H+ by He are carried out using the exact quantum mechanical close-coupling approach. Cross-sections for transitions among the rotational levels of C3H+ are computed for energies up to 600 cm−1. The cross-sections are used to obtain the collisional rate coefficients for temperatures T ≤ 100 K. Along with laboratory experiments, the results obtained in this work may be very useful for astrophysical applications to understand hydrocarbon chemistry.

AbstractUrea and thiourea derivatives: 1,3-bis[(E)-furan-2-yl)methylene]urea (BFMU) and 1,3-bis[(E)-furan-2-yl)methylene]thiourea (BFMT) were synthesized and characterized by spectrometry analyses (UV, IR, 1H NMR and 13C NMR). They were screened for antibacterial (Salmonella typhi, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Xanthomonas axonopodis and Streptococcus bovis) and antifungal (Fusarium oxysporum, Colletotrichum gloeosporioides and Cercospora zeae-maydis) activities. Quantum chemical calculations of frontier molecular orbital energies (EHOMO and ELUMO), and their associated global parameters were carried out by DFT levels of theory, with complete relaxation in the potential energy surface using 6-31G* basis set (DFT/B3LYP/6-31G*). Azomethine functional groups (C=N) appeared at δ 7.6 ppm and δ 7.0 ppm in the proton spectra, the peaks between δ 105 and δ 160 ppm of 13C spectra represent the methylene carbons (C=C). BFMU is a better inhibitor of P. aeruginosa and S. bovis, while BFMT is a better inhibitor of S. typhi, S. aureus and X. axonopodis and the fungi isolates (F. oxysporum, C. gloeosporioides and C. zeae-maydis) used. The global parameters agreed favorably with the experimental results, indicating the higher activity of BFMT.

The transition states for the H 2 NO decomposition and rearrangements mechanisms have been explored by the CBS-Q method or by density functional theory. Six transition states were located on the potential energy surface, which were explored with the Quadratic Complete Basis Set (CBS-Q) and Becke's one-parameter density functional hybrid methods. Interesting deviations between the CBS-Q results and the B1LYP density functional theory lead us to believe that further study into this system is necessary. In the efforts to further assess the stabilities of the transition states, bond order calculations were performed to measure the strength of the bonds in the transition state.

The kinetics of abstraction of hydrogen atoms from the methyl group of the toluene molecule by methyl radicals at 430-540�K have been determined. The methyl radicals were produced by pyrolysis of di-t-butyl peroxide in a stirred-flow system. The kinetics ,agree substantially with those obtained by previous authors using photolytic methods for generating the methyl radicals. At toluene and methyl-radical concentrations of about 5 x 10-7 and 10-11 mole cm-3 respectively the benzyl radicals resulting from the abstraction disappear almost entirely by combination with methyl radicals at the methylenic position. In this respect the benzyl radical behaves differently from the iso-electronic phenoxy radical, which previous work has shown to combine with a methyl radical mainly at ring positions. The investigation illustrates the application of stirred-flow technique to the study of the kinetics of free-radical reactions.

First Time

A detailed study has been made of the products from the reaction between hydrogen atoms and ethylene in a discharge-flow system at 290 ± 3 K. Total pressures in the range 8 to 16 Torr (1100 to 2200 Nm -2 ) of argon were used and the hydrogen atom and ethylene flow rates were in the ranges 5 to 10 and 0 to 20 μ mol s -1 , respectively. In agreement with previous work, the main products are methane and ethane ( ~ 95%) together with small amounts of propane and n -butane, measurements of which are reported for the first time. A detailed mechanism leading to formation of all the products is proposed. It is shown that the predominant source of ethane is the recombination of two methyl radicals, the rate of recombination of a hydrogen atom with an ethyl radical being negligible in comparison with the alternative, cracking reaction which produces two methyl radicals. A set of rate constants for the elementary steps in this mechanism has been derived with the aid of computer calculations, which gives an excellent fit with the experimental results. In this set, the values of the rate constant for the addition of a hydrogen atom to ethylene are at the low end of the range of previously measured values but are shown to lead to a more reasonable value for the rate constant of the cracking reaction of a hydrogen atom with an ethyl radical. It is shown that the recombination reaction of a hydrogen atom with a methyl radical, the source of methane, is close to its third-order region.
