Fifteen reactions on the doublet HCnS and singlet/triplet H2CnS(n = 1; 2) potential energy surfaces have been investi- gated theoretically via electronic structure calculations to unravel the formation of hydrogen deficient, sulfur bearing molecules via bimolecular reactions of two neutral species in cold molecular clouds.

These processes are of critical importance in initiating a tures increase up to 300 K, and sublimation of the (sulfur-bearing) series of elementary chemical reactions, leading eventually to organo- molecules from the grains takes over (20). The subsequent gas-phase sulfur molecules—among them potential precursors to iron-sulfide chemistry exploits complex reaction networks of ion–molecule and grains and to astrobiologically important molecules, such as the amino neutral–neutral reactions (17) with models postulating that the very acid cysteine. Here, we reveal through laboratory experiments, first sulfur–carbon bonds are formed via reactions involving methyl electronic-structure theory, quasi-classical trajectory studies, and astro- radicals (CH3)andcarbene(CH2) with atomic sulfur (S) leading to chemical modeling that the organosulfur chemistry can be initiated in carbonyl monosulfide and thioformaldehyde, respectively (18).

I would like to thank the Mississippi Center for Supercomputing Research for the use of their computational facilities and the research group of Dr. Gregory Tschumper for their guidance and computational assistance. Specifically, I would like to thank Eric Van Dornshuld for his continual support and advisement throughout this research project. Lastly, I would like to thank my advisor, Dr. Gregory Tschumper, for allowing me to work in his laboratory as well as providing me with a worthwhile project to fulfill this thesis requirement. iii ABSTRACT This work characterizes five stationary points of the formaldehyde dimer, (CH2O)2, two of which are minima, seven newly-identified stationary points of the formaldehyde/thioformaldehyde (mixed) dimer, CH2O/CH2S, four of which are minima, and five newly-identified stationary points of the thioformaldehyde dimer, (CH2S)2 , three of which are minima. Full geometry optimizations and corresponding harmonic vibrational frequencies were performed on CH2O and CH2S as well as each of the dimer configurations (Figures 3-5).

  • TA-02 Ion Science PID Response Factors USA V1.6.Pdf 1.43 MB
    Technical/Application Article 02 Version 1.6 19 July 2016 WRH/FD Ion Science PID Response Factors PID Response Photoionization Detectors (PIDs) respond to a broad range of organic and a few inorganic gaseous and volatile chemicals (‘volatiles’). In order for PID to respond to a volatile, the photon energy of the lamp must be greater than its ionization energy. Ion Science PIDs are available with 10.0 eV, 10.6 eV, and 11.7 eV lamps. This Technical Article lists the response factors (‘RF’s’) for over 800 volatiles with PID engaging these lamps. The RF relates the sensitivity of PID to a volatile to the sensitivity to the standard calibration gas isobutylene. The higher the RF, the lower the sensitivity. In the table ‘ZR’ means there is no response, NA that the value has not been measured (Not Available), and NV means that the compound is not volatile enough to measure accurately. For chemicals not listed, contact Ion Science for more information. Isobutylene as Reference Gas It is always most accurate to calibrate a PID directly with the compound to be measured. However, standard gas cylinders of many chemicals are not readily available, and in such cases isobutylene is the standard reference gas used to calibrate. The response of these chemicals differs to isobutylene by the factors listed in the table below. This table allows measurement of all the listed volatiles using only isobutylene for calibration. To obtain the true concentration of the target volatile chemical, multiply the apparent reading by the response factor listed in the table: True Concentration = Apparent Response x Response Factor For example, anisole has a response factor (RF) of 0.47 with a 10.6 eV lamp.

Sci.,2017,8,5385 Manoj Kumar,‡a Jie Zhong,‡a Joseph S. Francisco*a and Xiao C. Zeng*ab We carry out Born–Oppenheimer molecular dynamic simulations to show that the reaction between the smallest Criegee intermediate, CH2OO, and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) at the air/water interface can be observed within few picoseconds. The reaction follows both concerted and stepwise mechanisms with former being the dominant reaction pathway. The concerted reaction proceeds with or without the Received 22nd April 2017 involvement of one or two nearby water molecules. An important implication of the simulation results is Accepted 9th May 2017 that the Criegee-H2S reaction can provide a novel non-photochemical pathway for the formation of DOI: 10.1039/c7sc01797a aC–S linkage in clouds and could be a new oxidation pathway for H2S in terrestrial, geothermal and rsc.li/chemical-science volcanic regions.

Rennes, Ecole Nationale Sup´erieure de Chimie de Rennes, CNRS, ISCR { UMR 6226, F-35000 Rennes, France Abstract We present a new study of the millimeter and submillimeter wave spectra of the thioacetaldehyde molecule, CH3CHS, a sulfur-bearing analog of the ubiquitous interstellar molecule acetaldehyde (CH3CHO). Here, we present a laboratory investigation aimed at determining accurate spectroscopic parameters for CH3CHS to enable astronomical searches for this molecule using radio telescope arrays at millimeter and submillimeter wavelengths. New laboratory measurements have been carried out between 150 and 660 GHz using the spectrometer of PhLAM in Lille (France). Rotational transitions up to J = 60 were assigned in the ground, first and second excited torsional states of thioacetaldehyde and fit using the RAM Hamiltonian model. The final fit includes 62 parameters to give an overall weighted root-mean-square deviation of 0.9. On the basis of our spectroscopic results, CH3CHS was searched for, but not detected, in data from the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) between 84 GHz and 114 GHz toward the hot molecular core Sgr B2(N2).

  • OLCT200 PID Application Note
    OLCT200 PID Application note PID Response Factor PID Response Photoionization Detectors (PIDs) respond to a broad variety of organic gases and vapors, and some inorganic compounds. In order to get a response, the photon energy of the lamp must be greater than the ionization energy of the compound. PIDs are available with 10.6 eV lamps. This Technical Article lists the response factors for over 800 compounds with these lamps. The factors presented are inverse to the response, i.e., the higher the number the lower the response. In the table ‘ZR’ means there is no response, NA that the value has not been measured (Not Available), and NV means that the compound is not volatile enough to measure accurately even if its ionization energy is low enough. Isobutylene as Reference Gas It is always most accurate to calibrate a PID directly with the compound to be measured. However, standard gas cylinders of many chemicals are not readily available, and in such cases isobutylene is the standard reference gas used to calibrate. The response of these chemicals differs to isobutylene by the factors listed in the table below. This table allows measurement of any of the compounds in it using only isobutylene for calibration. To obtain the true concentration of the target chemical, multiply the apparent reading by the response factor listed in the table: True Concentration = Apparent Response x Response Factor For example, anisole has a response factor (RF) of 0.47 with a 10.6 eV lamp. Therefore, a reading of 10 ppm using an isobutylene-calibrated unit would correspond to: True Concentration = 10 ppm x 0.47 = 4.7 ppm Most of the Response Factors are pre-programmed into a compound library and can be called up to make the PID read out in units of the compound of interest.

Owing to wide energy range we have been able to compute target properties and investigate variety of processes and report data on resonances, vertical electronic excitation energies, differential cross sections (DCS), momentum transfer cross sections (MTCS), total ionization cross sections (TICS) and total cross sections (TCS) as well as scattering rate coefficients. Due to complexity involved in scattering calculations, two different theoretical formalisms are used. We have employed ab initio R-matrix method (0.01 eV to ∼ 20 eV) and the spherical complex optical potential (SCOP) method (∼20 eV to 5000 eV) to compute the cross sections. The R-matrix calculations are performed using close coupling approximation employing static exchange plus polarization (SEP) model with the aid of basis sets, 6-31G* (14 target states) and cc-pVTZ (16 target states).
