Descripción: We have studied the hydration and diffusion of the hydroxyl radical O H0 in water using classical molecular dynamics. We report the atomic radial distribution functions, hydrogen-bond distributions, angular distribution functions, and lifetimes of the hydration structures. The most frequent hydration structure in the O H0 has one water molecule bound to the O H0 oxygen (57% of the time), and one water molecule bound to the O H0 hydrogen (88% of the time). In the hydrogen bonds between the O H0 and the water that surrounds it the O H0 acts mainly as proton donor. These hydrogen bonds take place in a low percentage, indicating little adaptability of the molecule to the structure of the solvent. All hydration structures of the O H0 have shorter lifetimes than those corresponding to the hydration structures of the water molecule. The value of the diffusion coefficient of the O H0 obtained from the simulation was 7.1× 10-9 m2 s-1, which is higher than those of the water and the O H-. © 2005 American Institute of Physics.

Descripción: We use ring-polymer-molecular-dynamics (RPMD) techniques and the semi-empirical q-TIP4P/F water model to investigate the relationship between hydrogen bond connectivity and the characteristics of nuclear position fluctuations, including explicit incorporation of quantum effects, for the energetically low lying isomers of the prototype cluster [H2O] 8 at T = 50 K and at 150 K. Our results reveal that tunneling and zero-point energy effects lead to sensible increments in the magnitudes of the fluctuations of intra and intermolecular distances. The degree of proton spatial delocalization is found to map logically with the hydrogen-bond connectivity pattern of the cluster. Dangling hydrogen bonds exhibit the largest extent of spatial delocalization and participate in shorter intramolecular O-H bonds. Combined effects from quantum and polarization fluctuations on the resulting individual dipole moments are also examined. From the dynamical side, we analyze the characteristics of the infrared absorption spectrum. The incorporation of nuclear quantum fluctuations promotes red shifts and sensible broadening relative to the classical profile, bringing the simulation results in much more satisfactory agreement with direct experimental information in the mid and high frequency range of the stretching band. While RPMD predictions overestimate the peak position of the low frequency shoulder, the overall agreement with that reported using an accurate, parameterized, many-body potential is reasonable, and far superior to that one obtains by implementing a partially adiabatic centroid molecular dynamics approach. Quantum effects on the collective dynamics, as reported by instantaneous normal modes, are also discussed. © 2013 AIP Publishing LLC.

Temas: Classical molecular dynamics - Classical potentials - Empirical force fields - Generalized gradient approximation level - Minimum-energy structures - Pre-melting transition - Static polarizabilities - Thermal fluctuations - Dipole moment - Hydrogen bonds
Descripción: Energetics, structural features, polarity, and melting transitions in water clusters containing up to eight molecules were studied using ab initio methods and empirical force field models. Our quantum approach was based on density functional theory performed at the generalized gradient approximation level. For the specific case of (H2O)6, we selected five conformers of similar energy with different geometries and dipolar moments. For these cases, the cyclic arrangement was found to be the only nonpolar aggregate. For (H2O)8, the most stable structures corresponded to nonpolar, cubic-like, D2d and S4 conformers. Higher energy aggregates exhibit a large spectrum in their polarities. The static polarizability was found to be proportional to the size of the aggregates and presents a weak dependence with the number of hydrogen bonds. In order to examine the influence of thermal fluctuations on the aggregates, we have performed a series of classical molecular dynamics experiments from low temperature up to the melting transition using two different effective pseudopotentials: the TIP4P and MCY models. Minimum energy structures for both classical potentials were found to reproduce reasonably well the results obtained using ab initio methods. Isomerization and phase transitions were monitored by following changes in dipole moments, number of hydrogen bonds and Lindemann's parameter. For (H2O)6 and (H2O)8, the melting transitions were found at Tm≈50 and 160 K, respectively; for both aggregates, we observed premelting transitions between well differentiated conformers as well. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

Descripción: Two copper complex solvatomorphs, namely (3,10-C-meso-3,5,7,7,10,12,14,14- octamethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane)bis(perchlorato-κO)copper(II) 1.2-hydrate, [Cu(ClO4)2(C18H 40N4)]·1.2H2O, (I), and (3,10-C-meso-3,5,7,7,10,12,14,14-octamethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane) bis(perchlorato-κO)copper(II), [Cu(ClO4)2(C 18H40N4)], (II), are described and compared with each other and with a third, already reported, anhydrous diastereomer, denoted (III). Both compounds present very similar centrosymmetic coordination environments, with the CuII cation lying on an inversion centre in a distorted 4+2 octahedral environment, defined by the macrocyclic N4 group in the equatorial sites and two perchlorate groups in trans-axial positions [one of the perchlorate ligands in (I) is partially disordered]. The most significant difference in molecular shape is seen in the orientation of the perchlorate anions, and the influence of this on the intramolecular hydrogen bonding is discussed. The (partially) hydrated state of (I) favours the formation of chains along [011], while the anhydrous character of (II) and (III) promotes loosely bound structures with low packing indices. © 2013 International Union of Crystallography.

Descripción: The three transition-metal complexes, (meso-5,7,7,12,14,14-hexa methyl-1,4,8,11-tetra azacyclo tetra decane-κ4 N)bis (perchlorato-κO)copper(II), [Cu(ClO4)2(C18H40N4)], (I), (meso-5,7,7,12,14,14-hexa methyl-1,4,8,11-tetra azacyclo tetra decane-κ4 N)bis (nitrato-κO)zinc(II), [Zn(NO3)2(C18H40N4)], (II), and aqua chlorido (meso-5,7,7,12,14,14-hexa methyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclo tetra decane-κ4 N)copper(II) chloride, [CuCl(C18H40N4)(H2O)]Cl, (III), are described. The mol ecules display a very similarly distorted 4+2 octa hedral environment for the cation [located at an inversion centre in (I) and (II)], defined by the macrocycle N4 group in the equatorial sites and two further ligands in trans-axial positions [two O-ClO3 ligands in (I), two O-NO2 ligands in (II) and one chloride and one aqua ligand in (III)]. The most significant difference in mol ecular shape resides in these axial ligands, the effect of which on the intra- and inter molecular hydrogen bonding is discussed. In the case of (I), all strong hydrogen-bond donors are saturated in intra molecular inter actions, while weak inter molecular C - H⋯O contacts result in a three-dimensional network. In (II) and (III), instead, there are N - H and O - H donors left over for inter molecular inter actions, giving rise to the formation of strongly linked but weakly inter acting chains. © 2013 International Union of Crystallography.

Descripción: The excited states of the double hydrogen bond in the adenine-thymine nucleotide base pair has been investigated in the semiempirical CNDO/S-CI approximation. Double-minimum potential curves are obtained for several nuclear configurations characterizing simultaneous tautomeric rearrangements of the NH⋯N and O⋯HN bonds. The energy profiles for the coupled movement of the hydrogen bonding show that the Watson-Crick configuration of the adenine-thymine base pair is the most stable for all of the excited states studied. Estimates are made within the WKB approximation of the tunneling rate and tunneling probability. The results indicate that increasing the energy of the excited states would increase the probability of double protonic transfer by tunnel effect and thus for irreversible mutation. A comparison of the composition of the potentials for the single movement of the protons with the double-minimum potential of the concerted movement shows that the potential is nonseparable. The shortcomings that follow from the WKB approximation as applied to the present problem are discussed. © 1981 American Chemical Society.

Temas: Acetone molecules - Concentration dependence - Dynamical characteristics - Hydrogen bond acceptors - Molar fractions - Pure water - Quantitative level - Relative concentration - Solvation shell - Transition regions
Descripción: Using molecular dynamics experiments, we analyze equilibrium and dynamical characteristics related to the solvation of excess protons in water-acetone mixtures. Our approach is based on the implementation of an extended valence-bond Hamiltonian, which incorporates translocation of the excess charge between neighboring water molecules. Different mixtures have been analyzed, starting from the pure water case down to solutions with a water molar fraction x w 0.25. In all cases, we have verified that the structure of the first solvation shell of the H 3 O moiety remains practically unchanged, compared to the one observed in pure water. This shell is composed by three water molecules acting as hydrogen bond acceptors, with no evidence of hydrogen bond donor-like connectivity. Moreover, the increment in the acetone concentration leads to a gradual stabilization of Eigen-like [H 3O·(H 2O) 3] configurations, in detriment of Zundel-like [H·(H 2O) 2] ones. Rates of proton transfer and proton diffusion coefficients have been recorded at various water-acetone relative concentrations. In both cases, we have found a transition region, in the vicinity of x w ∼ 0.8, where the concentration dependences of the two magnitudes change at a quantitative level. A crude estimate shows that, at this tagged concentration, the volumes occupied by the two solvents become comparable. The origins of this transition separating water-rich from acetone-rich realms is rationalized in terms of modifications operated in the nearby, second solvation shell, which in the latter solutions, normally includes at least, one acetone molecule. Our results would suggest that one possible mechanism controlling the proton transfer in acetone-rich solutions is the exchange of one of these tagged acetone molecules, by nearby water ones. This exchange would give rise to Zundel-like structures, exhibiting a symmetric, first solvation shell composed exclusively by water molecules, and would facilitate the transfer between neighboring water molecules along the resonant complex. © 2012 American Institute of Physics.

Temas: Breaking process - Dispersive forces - Dynamical analysis - Dynamical behaviors - Functionalized silica - Hydrogen-bond formation - Hydrophobic pore - Hydroxyl groups - Hydroxylated surfaces - Liquid methanol
Descripción: Molecular dynamics simulations have been carried out to investigate the structure and dynamics of liquid methanol confined in 3.3 nm diameter cylindrical silica pores. Three cavities differing in the characteristics of the functional groups at their walls have been examined: (i) smooth hydrophobic pores in which dispersive forces prevail, (ii) hydrophilic cavities with surfaces covered by polar silanol groups, and (iii) a much more rugged pore in which 60% of the previous interfacial hydroxyl groups were replaced by the bulkier trimethylsilyl ones. Confinement promotes a considerable structure at the vicinity of the pore walls which is enhanced in the case of hydroxylated surfaces. Moreover, in the presence of the trimethylsilyl groups, the propagation of this interface-induced spatial ordering extends down to the central region of the pore. Concerning the dynamical modes, we observed an overall slowdown in both the translational and rotational motions. An analysis of these mobilities from a local perspective shows that the largest retardations operate at the vicinity of the interfaces. The gross features of the rotational dynamics were analyzed in terms of contributions arising from bulk and surface states. Compared to the bulk dynamical behavior, the characteristic timescales associated with the rotational motions show the most dramatic increments. A dynamical analysis of hydrogen bond formation and breaking processes is also included. © 2010 American Institute of Physics.

Temas: Arrhenius - Dynamic property - Isobaric heat capacity - Low temperatures - Molecular dynamic simulations - NaCl aqueous solution - Salt concentration - Supercooled water - Temperature dependence - Temperature values
Descripción: In this work we studied the effect of NaCl on the thermodynamic and dynamic properties of supercooled water, for salt concentrations between 0.19 and 1.33mol kg-1, using molecular dynamic simulations for TIP5PE water model and ion parameters specially designed to be used in combination with this potential. We studied the isobaric heat capacity (Cp) temperature dependence and observed a maximum in Cp, occurring at Tm, that moves to lower temperature values with increasing salt concentration. Many characteristic changes were observed at scaled temperature TTm ∼ 0.96, namely a minimum in the density of the system, a reduction of the slope of the number of hydrogen bonds vs. temperature, and a crossover from Vogel-Tamman-Fulcher to Arrhenius dynamics. Finally, at low temperatures we observed that water dynamics become heterogeneous with an apparently common relationship between the fraction of immobile molecules and T/Tm for all studied systems. © 2011 American Institute of Physics.

Descripción: We present results from molecular dynamics simulations performed on reverse micelles immersed in cyclohexane. Three different inner polar phases are considered: water (W), formamide (FM), and an equimolar mixture of the two solvents. In all cases, the surfactant was sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate (usually known as AOT). The initial radii of the micelles were R∼15 Å, while the corresponding polar solvent-to-surfactant molar ratios were intermediate between w0 =4.3 for FM and w0 =7 for W. The resulting overall shapes of the micelles resemble distorted ellipsoids, with average eccentricities of the order of ∼0.75. Moreover, the pattern of the surfactant layer separating the inner pool from the non-polar phase looks highly irregular, with a roughness characterized by length scales comparable to the micelle radii. Solvent dipole orientation polarization along radial directions exhibit steady growths as one moves from central positions toward head group locations. Local density correlations within the micelles indicate preferential solvation of sodium ionic species by water, in contrast to the behavior found in bulk equimolar mixtures. Still, a sizable fraction of ∼90% of Na+ remains associated with the head groups. Compared to bulk results, the translational and rotational modes of the confined solvents exhibit important retardations, most notably those operated in rotational motions where the characteristic time scales may be up to 50 times larger. Modifications of the intramolecular connectivity expressed in terms of the average number of hydrogen bonds and their lifetimes are also discussed. © 2008 American Institute of Physics.

Descripción: Proximity effects on 1J(CH) couplings are studied from a theoretical point of view in the following systems: CH4/FH (A) and H2O/HCN (B) which form dimers by hydrogen-bond interactions. 1J(CH) couplings for different intermolecular distances are calculated for the C - H bond facing the atom bearing lone pairs. While in the former system, this coupling is increased owing to the proximity to the F atom; in the latter this coupling is decreased owing to the proximity to the O atom. These opposite trends are accompanied by slight shortening and lengthening, respectively, of the corresponding C - H bond lengths. As part of this work, measurements of 1J(CH) couplings in 9-(1,3-dioxolan-2-yl)-1,2,3,4-tetrafluorotriptycene (I) and 1-formyl-2-hydroxy-8-fluoronaphthalene (II) and 1J(NH) in o-fluorobenzamide (III), showing proximity effects as those described above are carried out. These results suggest that 1J(XH) couplings are adequate probes to distinguish two different types of X-H⋯Y hydrogen bonds. © 1994 American Chemical Society.
