Density functional theory studies of OH-modified open-ended single-wall zigzag carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs)
2010
Abstract Functionalized carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are often formed as result of oxidation and cleaning of raw product grown on metal catalyst. Structure and energy of ideal and OH-modified single-wall nanotubes (SWCNTs) of different length (2.8, 7.0 and 13.5 A) were obtained at the DFT-B3LYP level. From one to nine OH groups were added at the end of the nanotube and a nonadditive dependence of attachment energy on the number of substituents was observed. The energetics of SWCNT end substitution with OH groups was supported by high level MP2 and CCSD(T) determination of reaction energy: R – H + 1 / 2 O 2 → R – OH + Δ E for methane, benzene and anthracene. In addition, a vibrational analysis of…
Dinuclear Ortho-Metalated Palladium(II) Compounds with N,N- and N,O-Donor Bridging Ligands. Synthesis of New Palladium(III) Complexes
2011
New dinuclear ortho-metalated palladium(II) compounds with N,N′-diarylformamidinates, Pd2[(C6H4)PPh2]2[R′NC(H)NR′]2 (R′ = C6H5, 3a; R′ = p-CH3C6H4, 3b; R′ = p-CH3OC6H4, 3c) and N,O-donor ligands, Pd2[(C6H4)PPh2]2[N,O]2 (N,O = succinimidate (5), phtalimidate (6), 2-hydroxypyridinate (7), acetanilidate (8)) have been synthesized and characterized by NMR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction methods. The oxidation with iodobenzene dichloride gave new and rare Pd26+ compounds, Pd2[(C6H4)PPh2]2[R′NC(H)NR′]2Cl2 (R′ = C6H5, 4a; R′ = p-CH3C6H4, 4b). DFT calculations on the Pd24+ → Pd26+ oxidation reaction show that the substituents on the amidinate N atoms have a greater effect on the reaction energy …
