Benchmarking and Application of Density Functional Methods In
BENCHMARKING AND APPLICATION OF DENSITY FUNCTIONAL METHODS IN COMPUTATIONAL CHEMISTRY by BRIAN N. PAPAS (Under Direction the of Henry F. Schaefer III) ABSTRACT Density Functional methods were applied to systems of chemical interest. First, the effects of integration grid quadrature choice upon energy precision were documented. This was done through application of DFT theory as implemented in five standard computational chemistry programs to a subset of the G2/97 test set of molecules. Subsequently, the neutral hydrogen-loss radicals of naphthalene, anthracene, tetracene, and pentacene and their anions where characterized using five standard DFT treatments. The global and local electron affinities were computed for the twelve radicals. The results for the 1- naphthalenyl and 2-naphthalenyl radicals were compared to experiment, and it was found that B3LYP appears to be the most reliable functional for this type of system. For the larger systems the predicted site specific adiabatic electron affinities of the radicals are 1.51 eV (1-anthracenyl), 1.46 eV (2-anthracenyl), 1.68 eV (9-anthracenyl); 1.61 eV (1-tetracenyl), 1.56 eV (2-tetracenyl), 1.82 eV (12-tetracenyl); 1.93 eV (14-pentacenyl), 2.01 eV (13-pentacenyl), 1.68 eV (1-pentacenyl), and 1.63 eV (2-pentacenyl). The global minimum for each radical does not have the same hydrogen removed as the global minimum for the analogous anion. With this in mind, the global (or most preferred site) adiabatic electron affinities are 1.37 eV (naphthalenyl), 1.64 eV (anthracenyl), 1.81 eV (tetracenyl), and 1.97 eV (pentacenyl). In later work, ten (scandium through zinc) homonuclear transition metal trimers were studied using one DFT 2 functional. -

Maximum Topological Distances Based Indices As Molecular Descriptors for QSPR

Linear and non-linear polynomials fittings are made and results show the need to resort to higher-order regression equations in order to get better concordances between theoretical results and experimental available data. Besides, topological indices computed from maximum order distances seems to yield rather satisfactory predictions of heats of formation for hydrocarbons. Keywords: QSPR theory, Detour matrix, Enthalpy of formation, Hydrocarbons, Topologi- cal indices 1. Introduction Graphs have found considerable employment in several chemistry fields, particularly in modeling molecular structure [1-10]. The applications of graphs to the study of structure-property relationships implies the representation of molecules by selected molecular descriptors, often referred to as topo- logical indices [11,12]. -
Cometabolic Degradation of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (Pahs) and Aromatic Ethers by Phenol- and Ammonia-Oxidizing Bacteria
AN ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION OF Soon Woong Chang for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Civil Engineering presented on November 11, 1997. Title: Cometabolic Degradation of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) and Aromatic Ethers by Phenol- and Ammonia-Oxidizing Bacteria Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved: /Kenneth J. Williamson Cometabolic biodegradation processes are potentially useful for the bioremediation of hazardous waste sites. In this study the potential application of phenol- oxidizing and nitrifying bacteria as "priming biocatalysts" was examined in the degradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), aryl ethers, and aromatic ethers. We observed that a phenol-oxidizing Pseudomonas strain cometabolically degrades a range of 2- and 3-ringed PAHs. A sequencing batch reactor (SBR) was used to overcome the competitive effects between two substrates and the SBR was evaluated as a alternative technology to treat mixed contaminants including phenol and PAHs. We also have demonstrated that the nitrifying bacterium Nitrosomonas europaea can cometabolically degrade a wide range polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), aryl ethers and aromatic ethers including naphthalene, acenaphthene, diphenyl ether, dibenzofuran, dibenzo-p-dioxin, and anisole. Our results indicated that all the compounds are transformed by N. europaea and that several unusual reactions are involved in these reactions. In the case of naphthalene oxidation, N. europaea generated predominantly 2 naphthol whereas other monooxygenases generate 1-naphthol as the major product. In the case of dibenzofuran oxidation, 3-hydroxydibenzofuran initially accumulated in the reaction medium and was then further transformed to 3-hydroxy nitrodibenzofuran in a pH- and nitrite-dependent abiotic reaction. A similar abiotic transformation reaction also was observed with other hydroxylated aryl ethers and PAHs. -
Incomplete Draft Documentation of The
INCOMPLETE DRAFT DOCUMENTATION OF THE SAPRC-16 MECHANISM GENERATION SYSTEM Interim Report to California Air Resources Board Contract No. 11-761 William P. L. Carter May 25, 2019 College of Engineering Center for Environmental Research and Technology (CE-CERT) University of California, Riverside, California 92521 SUMMARY This document gives a description of the automated chemical mechanism generation system that is used to derive gas-phase atmospheric reaction mechanisms for reactive organic compounds for use in atmospheric chemical models. In particular, this system is used to derive the SAPRC-16 that is being developed. The system, called MechGen uses a computer program to derive fully explicit mechanisms for the reactions of many types of emitted organic compounds and their oxidation products when they react in the atmosphere in the presence of oxides of nitrogen and other pollutants, and then uses the results to derive lumped mechanisms suitable for use in atmospheric models. This report gives an overview of system, describes the procedures used to generate detailed explicit mechanisms, and the procedures used to derive lumped reactions for the SAPRC-16 chemical mechanism for atmospheric modeling. The scientific basis for the generation of the detailed mechanisms, including the assumptions, approximations, and assignments or estimations of the rate constants or branching ratios involved, are described in a separate document (Carter, 2019a). The system runs on a programming platform originally developed for text-based and is accessible by anyone over the internet using a web-based interface, with a telnet login being used to program and manage the system and input assignments. The web-based interface can be used to generate complete mechanisms for selected compounds or to examine individual reactions to see documentation output concerning how individual reactions and rate constants are derived. -

Chapter 21 Organic Chemistry
CHAPTER 21 ORGANIC CHEMISTRY Hydrocarbons 1. A hydrocarbon is a compound composed of only carbon and hydrogen. A saturated hydro- carbon has only carbon-carbon single bonds in the molecule. An unsaturated hydrocarbon has one or more carbon-carbon multiple bonds but may also contain carbon-carbon single bonds. A normal hydrocarbon has one chain of consecutively bonded carbon atoms. A branched hydrocarbon has at least one carbon atom not bonded to the end carbon of a chain of consecutively bonded carbon atoms. Instead, at least one carbon atom forms a bond to an inner carbon atom in the chain of consecutively bonded carbon atoms. 2. To determine the number of hydrogens bonded to the carbons in cyclic alkanes (or any alkane where they may have been omitted), just remember that each carbon has four bonds. In cycloalkanes, only the C−C bonds are shown. It is assumed you know that the remaining bonds on each carbon are C−H bonds. The number of C−H bonds is that number required to give the carbon four total bonds. 3. In order to form, cyclopropane and cyclobutane are forced to form bond angles much smaller than the preferred 109.5° bond angles. Cyclopropane and cyclobutane easily react in order to obtain the preferred 109.5° bond angles. 4. Aromatic hydrocarbons are a special class of unsaturated hydrocarbons based on the benzene ring. Benzene has the formula C6H6. It is a planar molecule (all atoms are in the same plane). Each carbon in benzene is attached to three other atoms; it exhibits trigonal planar geometry with 120° bond angles.
