C/ Aragón 300. 08009 Barcelona. Spain. 1 Abstract We have used in this work the crossover soft-SAFT equation of state to model nitrogen dioxide/dinitrogen tetraoxide (NO 2/N 2O4), carbon dioxide (CO 2) and their mixtures. The prediction of the vapor – liquid equilibrium of this mixture is of utmost importance to correctly assess the NO 2 monomer amount that is the oxidizing agent of vegetal macromolecules in the CO 2 + NO 2 / N 2O4 reacting medium under supercritical conditions. The quadrupolar effect was explicitly considered when modeling carbon dioxide, enabling to obtain an excellent description of the vapor-liquid equilibria diagrams. NO 2 was modeled as a self associating molecule with a single association site to account for the strong associating character of the NO 2 molecule. Again, the vapor- liquid equilibrium of NO 2 was correctly modeled.

  • The Chemistry of Solvated Nitric Oxide
    The Chemistry of Solvated Nitric Oxide: As the Free Radical and as Super-saturated Dinitrogen Trioxide Solutions By Kristopher A. Rosadiuk March, 2015 A thesis submitted to McGill University in partial fulfillment of the requirements in the degree of: DOCTORATE OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Chemistry, Faculty of Science McGill University Montreal, Quebec, Canada © Kristopher Rosadiuk, 2015. Abstract The unusual behaviour of the mid-oxidation state nitrogen oxides, nitric oxide (NO) and dinitrogen trioxide (N2O3), are explored in solution. Nitric oxide is shown to catalyze the cis-trans isomerizations of diazo species in aqueous and organic solutions, and a model is presented by which this proceeds by spin catalysis, making use of the unpaired electron of NO to permit access to triplet patways. Five diazo compounds are tested and compared to stilbene, which is not found to isomerize under these conditions. Dinitrogen trioxide is found to form easily in organic solvents, which stabilize the molecule even above room temperature. Solutions can be formed at chemically useful concentrations and levels of purity, and this result is compared with the sparse literature concerning this phenomenon. The chemistry of these solutions at 0˚C is surveyed extensively, with 23 distinct organic reactions and 15 inorganic reactions being described. The first reported room temperature adduct of dinitrogen trioxide is presented, as well as novel syntheses for nitrosyl chloride and nitrosylsulfuric acid. X-ray structures are also given for a previously reported benzoquinone-phenol adduct, as well as a new mixed valent-mercury nitride salt of the form Hg4N4O9. Résumé Le comportement inhabituel des oxydes d'azote aux états d’oxydations moyens, comme l’oxyde nitrique (NO) et le trioxyde dinitrique (N2O3), est exploré en solution.
