DFT-Based Reaction Pathway Analysis of Hexadiene Cyclization Via Carbenium Ion Intermediates: Mechanistic Study of Light Alkane Aromatization Catalysis
J. Phys. Chem. B 2004, 108, 971-980 971 DFT-Based Reaction Pathway Analysis of Hexadiene Cyclization via Carbenium Ion Intermediates: Mechanistic Study of Light Alkane Aromatization Catalysis Yogesh V. Joshi, Aditya Bhan, and Kendall T. Thomson* School of Chemical Engineering, Purdue UniVersity, West Lafayette, Indiana 47907 ReceiVed: July 28, 2003; In Final Form: NoVember 4, 2003 We conducted density functional theory calculations to identify the complete cyclization mechanism (ring formation and ring expansion) for protonated hexadiene in the gas-phase as a precursory means of studying aromatization of light alkanes in acidic zeolite catalysts. We identify the rate-determining step to consist of ring expansion from a methylcyclopenta carbenium precursor to a stable cyclohexa carbenium intermediate, exhibiting an activation barrier of 9.6 kcal/mol and proceeding through a bicyclic intermediate starting from a secondary cyclopentyl carbocation. This pathway for ring closure was preferred over tertiary precursor expansion and direct cyclization to a cyclohexyl carbocation. Expecting carbocation intermediates to be represented by alkoxide species near Brønsted acid sites, we calculated the relative stability of primary, secondary, and tertiary alkoxide analogues to cyclopentyl carbocation intermediates involved in ring expansion and notice a reversal of stability relative to gas-phase carbocation stabilities (i.e., primary > secondary > tertiary stability). However, on the basis of the notion that transition state stability depends heavily -
Appendix A: Symbols and Prefixes
Appendix A: Symbols and Prefixes (Appendix A last revised November 2020) This appendix of the Author's Kit provides recommendations on prefixes, unit symbols and abbreviations, and factors for conversion into units of the International System. Prefixes Recommended prefixes indicating decimal multiples or submultiples of units and their symbols are as follows: Multiple Prefix Abbreviation 1024 yotta Y 1021 zetta Z 1018 exa E 1015 peta P 1012 tera T 109 giga G 106 mega M 103 kilo k 102 hecto h 10 deka da 10-1 deci d 10-2 centi c 10-3 milli m 10-6 micro μ 10-9 nano n 10-12 pico p 10-15 femto f 10-18 atto a 10-21 zepto z 10-24 yocto y Avoid using compound prefixes, such as micromicro for pico and kilomega for giga. The abbreviation of a prefix is considered to be combined with the abbreviation/symbol to which it is directly attached, forming with it a new unit symbol, which can be raised to a positive or negative power and which can be combined with other unit abbreviations/symbols to form abbreviations/symbols for compound units. For example: 1 cm3 = (10-2 m)3 = 10-6 m3 1 μs-1 = (10-6 s)-1 = 106 s-1 1 mm2/s = (10-3 m)2/s = 10-6 m2/s Abbreviations and Symbols Whenever possible, avoid using abbreviations and symbols in paragraph text; however, when it is deemed necessary to use such, define all but the most common at first use. The following is a recommended list of abbreviations/symbols for some important units. -
Chapter 9 Titrimetric Methods 413
Chapter 9 Titrimetric Methods Chapter Overview Section 9A Overview of Titrimetry Section 9B Acid–Base Titrations Section 9C Complexation Titrations Section 9D Redox Titrations Section 9E Precipitation Titrations Section 9F Key Terms Section 9G Chapter Summary Section 9H Problems Section 9I Solutions to Practice Exercises Titrimetry, in which volume serves as the analytical signal, made its first appearance as an analytical method in the early eighteenth century. Titrimetric methods were not well received by the analytical chemists of that era because they could not duplicate the accuracy and precision of a gravimetric analysis. Not surprisingly, few standard texts from the 1700s and 1800s include titrimetric methods of analysis. Precipitation gravimetry developed as an analytical method without a general theory of precipitation. An empirical relationship between a precipitate’s mass and the mass of analyte— what analytical chemists call a gravimetric factor—was determined experimentally by taking a known mass of analyte through the procedure. Today, we recognize this as an early example of an external standardization. Gravimetric factors were not calculated using the stoichiometry of a precipitation reaction because chemical formulas and atomic weights were not yet available! Unlike gravimetry, the development and acceptance of titrimetry required a deeper understanding of stoichiometry, of thermodynamics, and of chemical equilibria. By the 1900s, the accuracy and precision of titrimetric methods were comparable to that of gravimetric methods, establishing titrimetry as an accepted analytical technique. 411 412 Analytical Chemistry 2.0 9A Overview of Titrimetry We are deliberately avoiding the term In titrimetry we add a reagent, called the titrant, to a solution contain- analyte at this point in our introduction ing another reagent, called the titrand, and allow them to react. -

Tailored design of efficient photoresists is enabled by a fundamental understanding of EUV induced chemistry. Processes that occur in the resist film after absorption of an EUV photon are discussed and a novel approach to study these processes on a fundamental level is described. The processes of photoabsorption, electron emission, and molecular fragmentation were studied experimentally in the gas‐phase on analogues of the monomer units employed in chemically amplified EUV resists. To demonstrate the dependence of the EUV absorption cross‐section on selective light harvesting substituents, halogenated methylpenols were characterized employing the following techniques. -
A Complete Guide to Benzene
A Complete Guide to Benzene Benzene is an important organic chemical compound with the chemical formula C6H6. The benzene molecule is composed of six carbon atoms joined in a ring with one hydrogen atom attached to each. As it contains only carbon and hydrogen atoms, benzene is classed as a hydrocarbon. Benzene is a natural constituent of crude oil and is one of the elementary petrochemicals. Due to the cyclic continuous pi bond between the carbon atoms, benzene is classed as an aromatic hydrocarbon, the second [n]- annulene ([6]-annulene). It is sometimes abbreviated Ph–H. Benzene is a colourless and highly flammable liquid with a sweet smell. Source: Wikipedia Protecting people and the environment Protecting both people and the environment whilst meeting the operational needs of your business is very important and, if you have operations in the UK you will be well aware of the requirements of the CoSHH Regulations1 and likewise the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) in the US2. Similar legislation exists worldwide, the common theme being an onus on hazard identification, risk assessment and the provision of appropriate control measures (bearing in mind the hierarchy of controls) as well as health surveillance in most cases. And whilst toxic gasses such as hydrogen sulphide and carbon monoxide are a major concern because they pose an immediate (acute) danger to life, long term exposure to relatively low level concentrations of other gasses or vapours such as volatile organic compounds (VOC) are of equal importance because of the chronic illnesses that can result from that ongoing exposure. Benzene, a common VOC Organic means the chemistry of carbon based compounds, which are substances that results from a combination of two or more different chemical elements. -

Physical and Analytical Electrochemistry: the Fundamental
Electrochemical Systems The simplest and traditional electrochemical process occurring at the boundary between an electronically conducting phase (the electrode) and an ionically conducting phase (the electrolyte solution), is the heterogeneous electro-transfer step between the electrode and the electroactive species of interest present in the solution.

However, all this knowledge does not give us the information that is needed to explain how living cells work. To do that, we need to study proteins. In 2002, mass spectrometry has developed to the point where it has the capacity to obtain the "exact" molecular weight of many macromolecules. At the present time, this includes proteins up to 150,000 Da. Proteins of higher molecular weights (up to 500,000 Da) can also be studied by mass spectrometry, but with less accuracy. The paradigm for sequencing of peptides and identification of proteins has changed – because of the availability of the human genome database, peptides can be identified merely by their masses or by partial sequence information, often in minutes, not hours. This new capacity is shifting the emphasis of biomedical research back to the functional aspects of cell biochemistry, the expression of particular sets of genes and their gene products, the proteins of the cell. These are the new goals of the biological scientist: o to know which proteins are expressed in each cell, preferably one cell at a time o to know how these proteins are modified, information that cannot necessarily be deduced from the nucleotide sequence of individual genes. -
