Chang* Department of Chemistry, National Dong Hwa University, Shoufeng, Hualien 974, Taiwan *S Supporting Information ABSTRACT: We carried out crossed molecular beam experiments and electronic structure calculations to unravel the chemical dynamics of the 2Π reaction of the silylidyne(-d1) radical (SiH/SiD; X ) with dimethyla- 1 cetylene (CH3CCCH3;XA1g). The chemical dynamics were indirect and initiated by the barrierless addition of the silylidyne radical to both carbon atoms of dimethylacetylene forming a cyclic collision complex 2,3-dimethyl-1-silacyclopropenyl. This complex underwent unimolecular decomposition by atomic hydrogen loss from the silicon atom via a loose exit transition state to form the novel 2,3-dimethyl-1-silacycloprop-2- enylidene isomer in an overall exoergic reaction (experimentally: −29 ± 21 kJ mol−1; computationally: −10 ± 8 kJ mol−1). An evaluation of the scattering dynamics of silylidyne with alkynes indicates that in each system, the silylidyne radical adds barrierlessly to one or to both carbon atoms of the acetylene moiety, yielding an acyclic or a cyclic collision complex, which can also be accessed via cyclization of the acyclic structures. The cyclic intermediate portrays the central decomposing complex, which fragments via hydrogen loss almost perpendicularly to the rotational plane of the decomposing complex exclusively from the silylidyne moiety via a loose exit transition state in overall weakly exoergic reaction leading to ((di)methyl-substituted) 1-silacycloprop-2-enylidenes (−1to−13 kJ mol−1 computationally; −12 ± 11 to −29 ± 21 kJ mol−1 experimentally). Most strikingly, the reaction dynamics of the silylidyne radical with alkynes are very different from those of C1−C4 alkanes and C2−C4 alkenes, which do not react with the silylidyne radical at the collision energies under our crossed molecular beam apparatus, due to either excessive entrance barriers to reaction (alkanes) or overall highly endoergic reaction processes (alkenes). Nevertheless, molecules carrying carbon−carbon − double bonds could react, if the carbon carbon double bond is either consecutive like in allene (H2CCCH2) or in conjugation − with another carbon carbon double bond (conjugated dienes) as found, for instance, in 1,3-butadiene (H2CCHCHCH2). 1. INTRODUCTION In the case of ground state atomic carbon, the carbon atom During the past few years, the dimethylacetylene molecule (2- adds to either one or both carbon atoms, yielding triplet collision complexes, which eventually isomerize via ring butyne; CH3CCCH3) has received considerable attention by the reaction dynamics community to investigate sterical effects closure/ring opening to yield the acyclic triplet dimethylpro- of replacing one or both hydrogen atoms by bulky methyl pargylene intermediate (CH3CCCCH3) before ejecting atomic hydrogen from the methyl group forming the 1-methylbuta- group(s) (CH3) in the acetylene (C2H2) molecule, under 1,2 bimolecular reactions with the cyano radical (CN; X2Σ+), trienyl radical (CH3CCCCH2). On the singlet surface, dicarbon − boronyl radical (BO; X2Σ+),3 atomic carbon (C; 3P),4 6 singlet follows an indirect reaction mechanism governed by adding 1Σ + 3Π 7 and triplet dicarbon (C2;X g ,a u), and atomic boron (B; dicarbon to the central acetylene carbons of dimethylacetylene 2P) (Scheme 1).8,9 Considering the reactions with the diatomic followed by multiple isomerizations (ring closure/ring open- cyano and boronyl radicals, the reaction dynamics were dictated ing) to form eventually the 2,4-hexadiyne intermediate by adding doublet radicals with their respective radical center (CH3CCCCCH3), which then ejects atomic hydrogen leading located at the carbon and boron atom, to one of the carbons in the carbon−carbon triple bond followed by loss of atomic Received: July 13, 2016 hydrogen and/or the methyl group.

Finally, we contemplate the reaction dynamics of silylidyne with the corresponding C1−C4 alkanes and C2−C4 12 alkenes, as well as two special cases: allene (H2CCCH2) and 13 1,3-butadiene (H2CCHCHCH2). 2. EXPERIMENT The gas phase reactions of the silylidyne (SiH; X2Π) and 2Π silylidyne-d1 (SiD; X ) radical with dimethylacetylene 1 (CH3CCCH3;XA1g) were investigated respectively in a universal crossed molecular beam machine at the University − of Hawaii at Manoa.14 21 A pulsed beam of silylidyne radicals was prepared by photolysis of disilane (Si2H6; 99.998%; Voltaix) seeded in helium (He; 99.9999%; Gaspro) in a fraction of 0.5% as well as backing pressure of 2 atm.12 This gas mixture was fed into a piezoelectric valve operating at 120 Hz, −400 V amplitude and a pulse width of 80 μs, and the released pulsed beam was intercepted by a 1 mm × 4 mm laser spot from an ArF excimer laser (Compex 110, Coherent, Inc.) of 60 Hz and 30 mJ per pulse, which is located 1 mm downstream from the nozzle. The silylidyne-d1 radical beam was produced in situ by ablating a rotating silicon rod with the output of a Nd:YAG laser (Quanta-Ray Pro 270, Spectra-Physics) operat- ing at 30 Hz and 266 nm with pulse energies of 10−15 mJ and seeding the ablated species in deuterium gas (D2, 99.7% D; Icon Isotopes) released at 4 atm backing pressure by a piezoelectric valve operating at 60 Hz, −400 V amplitude, and pulse width of 80 μs.10 Prior to arriving at the center of interaction region, the silylidyne(-d1) radicals passed through a stainless steel skimmer and a four-slit chopper wheel operating at 120 Hz, and the latter was able to select the pulsed beam fi to the 1-methyl-1,4-pentadiynyl-5 radical (CH3CCCCCH2). with a well-de ned peak velocity (vp) and speed ratio (S)of On the triplet surface, dicarbon molecule adds barrierlessly to 1715 ± 13 m s−1 and 13.1 ± 1.9 for silylidyne, and of 1981 ± −1 ± both carbons concurrently or to one central carbon of 38 m s and 5.2 1.0 for silylidyne-d1, respectively. The dimethylacetylene leading to an intermediate CH3C(CC)- primary radical beam crossed perpendicularly the most intense CCH3, which further isomerizes prior to atomic hydrogen loss, part of a pulsed dimethylacetylene beam (C4H6, Sigma-Aldrich) − yielding the 3-methyl-1,4-pentadiynyl-3 radical (HCCC(CH3)- released by a second pulsed valve operating at 400 V CCH). Atomic boron also exhibits rather unique reaction amplitude, 120 Hz (for silylidyne plus dimethylacetylene)/60 dynamics. The reaction is initiated by the interaction of the Hz (for silylidyne-d1 plus dimethylacetylene), pulse width of 80 boron atom with the π electron density of the dimethylacety- μs at a backing pressure of 550 Torr. Peak velocity and speed lene molecule, which forms a 2,3-dimethyl-1-boracycloprope- ratio for the dimethylacetylene beam were determined to be ± −1 ± nylidenyl radical intermediate (c-BC2(CH3)2).

The increasing number of known exoplanets and other ultra-cool, substellar objects has propelled the desire to detect life andprebiotic chemistry outside the solar system. We present an ion–neutral chemical network constructed from scratch, STAND2015, that treats hydrogen, nitrogen, carbon, and oxygen chemistry accurately within a temperature range between 100 and 30,000 K. Formation pathways for glycine and other organic molecules are included. The network is complete up to H6C2N2O3. STAND2015 is successfully tested against atmospheric chemistry models for HD 209458b, Jupiter, and the present-day Earth using a simple one- dimensionalphotochemistry/diffusion code. Our results for the early Earth agree with those of Kasting for CO2,H2, CO, and O2, but do not agree for water and atomic oxygen. We use the network to simulate an experiment where varied chemical initial conditions are irradiated by UV light. The result from our simulation is that more glycine is produced when more ammonia and methane is present.

Millar 5 1234567890():,; Interstellar silicates play a key role in star formation and in the origin of solar systems, but their synthetic routes have remained largely elusive so far. Here we demonstrate in a combined crossed molecular beam and computational study that silicon dioxide (SiO2) along with silicon monoxide (SiO) can be synthesized via the reaction of the silylidyne radical (SiH) with molecular oxygen (O2) under single collision conditions. This mechanism may provide a low-temperature path—in addition to high-temperature routes to silicon oxides in circum- stellar envelopes—possibly enabling the formation and growth of silicates in the interstellar medium necessary to offset the fast silicate destruction. 1 Department of Chemistry, University of Hawai’iatMānoa, Honolulu, HI 96822, USA. 2 State Key Laboratory of Precision Spectroscopy, East China Normal University, Shanghai, 200062, China. 3 Department of Chemistry, Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University, Tallahassee, FL 32307, USA. 4 Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, Florida International University, Miami, FL 33199, USA. 5 Astrophysics Research Centre, School of Mathematics and Physics, Queen’s University Belfast, Belfast, BT7 1NN, UK.

  • Reaction Pathways Linking Chemisorption to Desorption of Methylchlorosilanes on Copper(001)
    REACTION PATHWAYS LINKING CHEMISORPTION TO DESORPTION OF METHYLCHLOROSILANES ON COPPER(001) BY JAMES LALLO A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School|New Brunswick Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Chemistry and Chemical Biology Written under the direction of Professor B.J. Hinch and approved by New Brunswick, New Jersey October, 2012 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Reaction pathways linking chemisorption to desorption of methylchlorosilanes on copper(001) by James Lallo Dissertation Director: Professor B.J. Hinch The interactions of silane molecules with metal surfaces are pivotal in many com- mercial processes. Of particular interest is the commercial \Direct Process," in which methyl chloride (CH3Cl) is exposed to silicon, in the presence of a copper catalyst and other promoters, producing dimethyldichlorosilane as the predominant product. Previous UHV studies have investigated the interaction of \pre-dissociated" methyl (CH3) and chlorine (Cl) with copper and copper-silicide surfaces. This thesis investi- gates the reaction mechanisms of \pre-associated" methylchlorosilanes ((CH3)xClySiHz, x+y+z=4) adsorbed on a copper(001) surface. The goal was to develop an understand- ing of the intermediates and transfer processes involved for dissociative adsorption and subsequent desorption of these molecules. Only molecules containing at least one Si- H bond were observed to undergo chemisorption. It was found that dimethylsilane (CH3)2SiH2 and methylsilane (CH3)SiH3 exhibit ligand transfer on the copper sur- face, leading to the desorption of trimethylsilane (CH3)3SiH, in both cases. The sug- gested intermediates present after adsorption of methylsilane were methylsilyl CH3SiH2, methysilylene CH3SiH and methylsilylidyne CH3Si.

We present an ion-neutral chemical network constructed from scratch, Stand2015, that treats hydrogen, nitrogen, carbon and oxygen chemistry accurately within a temperature range between 100 K and 30000 K.

Our results for the early Earth agree with those of Kasting (1993) for CO2, H2, CO and O2, but do not agree for water and atomic oxygen. We use the network to simulate an experiment where varied chemical initial conditions are irradiated by UV light. The result from our simulation is that more glycine is produced when more ammonia and methane is present. Very little glycine is produced in the absence of any molecular nitrogen and oxygen. This suggests that production of glycine is inhibited if a gas is too strongly reducing. Possible applications and limitations of the chemical kinetics network are also discussed.

  • Dissertation Contributions of Gas-Phase Plasma
    DISSERTATION CONTRIBUTIONS OF GAS-PHASE PLASMA CHEMISTRY TO SURFACE MODIFICATIONS AND GAS-SURFACE INTERACTIONS: INVESTIGATIONS OF FLUOROCARBON RF PLASMAS Submitted by Michael F. Cuddy II Department of Chemistry In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, Colorado Summer 2012 Doctoral Committee: Advisor: Ellen R. Fisher Amber Krummel Nancy E. Levinger Dawn Rickey Azer P. Yalin ABSTRACT CONTRIBUTIONS OF GAS-PHASE PLASMA CHEMISTRY TO SURFACE MODIFICATIONS AND GAS-SURFACE INTERACTIONS: INVESTIGATIONS OF FLUOROCARBON RF PLASMAS The fundamental aspects of inductively coupled fluorocarbon (FC) plasma chem- istry were examined, with special emphasis on the contributions of gas-phase species to surface modifications. Characterization of the gas-phase constituents of single-source CF4-, C2F6-, C3F8-, and C3F6-based plasmas was performed using spectroscopic and mass spectrometric techniques. The effects of varying plasma parameters, including applied rf power (P) and system pressure (p) were examined. Optical emission spectroscopy (OES) and laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) spectroscopy were employed to monitor the behav- ior of excited and ground CFx (x = 1,2) radicals, respectively. Mass spectrometric tech- niques, including ion energy analyses, elucidated behaviors of nascent ions in the FC plasmas. These gas-phase data were correlated with the net effect of substrate processing for Si and ZrO2 surfaces. Surface-specific analyses were performed for post-processed substrates via x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and contact angle goniometry. Generally, precursors with lower F/C ratios tended to deposit robust FC films of high sur- face energy. Precursors of higher F/C ratio, such as CF4, were associated with etching or removal of material from surfaces.
