Oxygen Interactions with Covalently Grafted 2D Nanometric Carboxyphenyl Thin Films—An Experimental and DFT Study

Experimental and DFT Computational Insight into Nitrosamine Photochemistry-Oxygen Matters.

A nitrosamine photooxidation reaction is shown to generate a peroxy intermediate by experimental physical-organic methods. The irradiation of phenyl and methyl-substituted nitrosamines in the presence of isotopically labeled 18-oxygen revealed that an O atom was trapped from a peroxy intermediate to trimethylphosphite or triphenylphosphine, or by nitrosamine itself, forming two moles of nitrami...

Protonation of Propene on Silica-Grafted Hydroxylated Molybdenum and Tungsten Oxide Metathesis Catalysts: A DFT Study

Theoretical assessment of the protonation reaction in the activation of propene on hydroxylated Mo(VI) and W(VI) metathesis catalysts is presented in this paper using the density functional theory calculations and five support clusters varying from simple SiO4H3 clusters to a large Si4O13H9 cluster. The bond distances and thermochemical...

Investingation and Chemisorption study of Oxygen Atoms and Cr (100) surface by DFT calculation

This study concerns about quantum chemical modeling behavior of 02 on Cr (100)surface by using density functional theory (DFT) by LANL2DZ and 6 — 31G* basissets, we presented the results of our first principles electronic structure calculationson the 02 molecules and their interface with Cr (100) surface. The chromium metalhas the body-centered cubic structure, and chromium cluster has five Cr ...

DFT Study of Interactions of Carbenes with Boron Nitride Nanotubes

Single-walled boron nitride nanotubes are chosen as model reactants, and (10,0) and (6,6) are chosen as representatives of armchair and zigzag nanotubes, respectively, to study the interaction of carbenes of the type :CX2. It is found that, contrary to the case of carbon nanotubes, boron nitride tubes, particularly armchair BNNTs, do not show a propensity for cyclopropane ring formation. The SW...
