Variable hydrazine coordination modes from reactions with dichlorotris(triphenylphosphine)ruthenium(II)

The reactivity of the prominent ruthenium(II) catalyst and precursor, RuCl 2 (PPh 3 ) 3 , was explored with hydrazine and its derivatives. The reactions produced 6-coordinate ruthenium(II) products that bond with the hydrazine moiety in bridging (NH 2 NH 2 or NH 2 NHMe), end-on (NH 2 NHMe, NH 2 NHPh, or NH 2 NMe 2 ), or side-on (NH 2 NMe 2 ) fashions. The products have been characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction and 31 P NMR spectroscopy. With NH 2 NH 2 , the dimeric product, [RuCl 2 (PPh 3 ) 2 ] 2 ($μ$-N 2 H 4 ) 2 , was formed under all conditions used. For other hydrazines, the reaction stoichiometry governed product formation to yield either bimetallic or monomeric products. When the RuCl 2 (PPh 3 ) 3 to hydrazine derivative ratio was 1:1 or lower, bimetallic complexes were formed while a 1:2 ratio produced monomeric compounds. The exception to the latter occurs with the production of the monomeric compound, RuCl 2 (PPh 3 ) 2 ($η$ 2 -NH 2 NMe 2 ), that forms employing a 1:1 ratio. In addition to stoichiometry, steric factors and hydrogen bonding played a significant role in dictating the bonding mode of hydrazines. The bimetallic complexes were further reacted to yield the corresponding monomeric products, adopting the form RuCl 2 (PPh 3 ) 2 (L) 2 (L = NH 2 NHMe, NH 2 NHPh, or NH 2 NMe 2 ). Reactions utilizing less than a 1:2 ratio of RuCl 2 (PPh 3 ) 3 to NH 2 NMe 2 produced a mixture of products that appear to be in equilibrium. In conclusion, FT calculations were performed to gain insight into the reaction energetics and molecular stability.

Effects of 2D filler on rheology of additive manufacturing polymers: Simulation and experiment on polyetherketoneketone-mica composites

Polymeric composites have attracted increasing interest in fundamental studies and industrial applications due to their often-superior characteristics over conventional pure polymers. In this work, we studied the relationship between the rheological properties, critical in processing methods such as additive manufacturing, and the structure of a polymer-2D filler system by experiment and simulation methods. Considering the high performance polymer polyetherketoneketone (PEKK) with 2D filler (mica) composite as an example, the effects of filler size, filler content, surface chemistry and shear rate were systematically investigated. Here, it is demonstrated that the interaction between the polymer and 2D filler brings two different consequences on tuning the viscosity of polymer-filler composite. The stronger interaction increases the shear stress of the polymer-2D filler composite system, leading to higher viscosity. On the other hand, the stronger interaction can promote more absorption of polymer chains on the surface, which makes the local polymer network disentangled and decreases the continuous viscosity from the polymer network. This work provides a fundamental understanding on the relationship between macroscopic rheological properties and the structural properties and energetics at molecular level of polymer-2D filler composite.

Phase Change-Driven Negative Activation Energies in Pd/Carbon-Based/Organic Getter Hydrogenation Reactions

In this study, the hydrogenation of 1,4-diphenylbutadiyne (DPB) blended with carbon-supported Pd (DPB–Pd/C) in the form of pellets was investigated by isothermal–isobaric experiments at 1333 Pa of H 2 and in the temperature range of 291–315 K. The extracted kinetics were then used in conjunction with a complementary constant rate of H 2 input experimentation to model the performance of a DPB-catalysis/support system as a function of temperature and H 2 partial pressure. First-principles density functional theory (DFT) calculations were also performed to shed light on the molecular level energetics of DPB and its intermediate states. A seemingly puzzling formation of alternate positive activation energy barrier (higher reaction rate with higher temperature) and negative activation energy barrier (higher reaction rate with lower temperature) zones during the hydrogenation process was discovered. However, this observed phenomenon can be logically explained in terms of the associated phase changes and H 2 transport in the material. This work provides a good illustration of a rarely encountered chemical process with a negative activation energy barrier.

M06-SX screened-exchange density functional for chemistry and solid-state physics

Significance Density functionals with Hartree–Fock exchange have been widely used for a wide range of chemical applications, but the nonlocal character of exchange makes long-range exchange computationally expensive for solid-state calculations with periodic boundary conditions, and full exchange is nonphysical for condensed-phase systems. Here, we present a screened-exchange (SX) density functional, M06-SX, that is especially designed to have good accuracy for both solid-state physics and chemical applications with less computational cost than full Hartree–Fock exchange. The M06-SX functional gives accuracy comparable to functionals with full Hartree–Fock exchange for predicting chemical properties of molecules, while also being practical with good accuracy for plane wave calculations on band gaps and lattice constants of solids.

Semirelativistic antisymmetrized molecular dynamics for the production of energetic neutrons in intermediate-energy heavy-ion reactions

Relativistic corrections have been made in the nonrelativistic antisymmetrized molecular dynamics (amd) simulations to apply to the high-energy neutron production in the 12 C + 12 C and 16 O + 12 C collisions at incident energies of 290 and 400 MeV/nucleon. The corrections are made in kinematics alone and neither nucleon-nucleon inelastic scatterings nor meson productions are taken into account, and amd with the relativistic corrections is called semirelativistic amd. The three-nucleon collision (3NC) and Fermi boost in the collision processes are taken into account in the nonrelativistic AMD. Since the relativistic corrections tend to compensate in each other, the difference between the semirelativistic and nonrelativistic results become small. High-energy tails of the available experimental neutron double-differential cross sections, especially at larger angles, are well reproduced by amd with the 3NC term both with nonrelativistic and semirelativistic simulations. Furthermore, these results indicate that the high-energy neutrons are dominantly produced by the 3NC process in this incident energy range.

Solvent effects on extractant conformational energetics in liquid–liquid extraction: a simulation study of molecular solvents and ionic liquids

Extractant design in liquid–liquid extraction (LLE) is a research frontier of metal ion separations that typically focuses on the direct extractant–metal interactions. However, a more detailed understanding of energetic drivers of separations beyond primary metal coordination is often lacking, including the role of solvent in the extractant phase. In this work, we propose a new mechanism for enhancing metal-complexant energetics with nanostructured solvents. Using molecular dynamics simulations with umbrella sampling, we find that the organic solvent can reshape the energetics of the extractant's intramolecular conformational landscape. Here, we calculate free energy profiles of different conformations of a representative bidentate extractant, n-octyl(phenyl)-N,N-diisobutyl carbamoyl methyl phosphinoxide (CMPO), in four different solvents: dodecane, tributyl phosphate (TBP), and dry and wet ionic liquid (IL) 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide ([EMIM][Tf 2 N]). By promoting reorganization of the extractant molecule into its binding conformation, our findings reveal how particular solvents can ameliorate this unfavorable step of the metal separation process. In particular, the charge alternating nanodomains formed in ILs substantially reduce the free energy penalty associated with extractant reorganization. Importantly, using alchemical free energy calculations, we find that this stabilization persists even when we explicitly include the extracted cation. These findings provide insight into the energetic drivers of metal ion separations and potentially suggest a new approach to designing effective separations using a molecular-level understanding of solvent effects.

Competitive Adsorption of NH 3 and H 2 O in Metal–Organic Framework Materials: MOF-74

Elucidating the interaction between coadsorbed H 2 O and NH 3 in metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) is of paramount importance to uncover mechanistic details of their competitive coadsorption behavior as well as to guide the design of new materials for enhanced NH 3 adsorption in humid environments. Nevertheless, molecular competition between NH 3 and H 2 O within the confined nanopores of MOFs was rarely explored and is poorly understood due to challenges in characterization. Here, we combine in situ infrared spectroscopy with ab initio calculations to unveil the competition of NH 3 and H 2 O for occupying active adsorption sites in the representative MOF-74 material by analyzing the kinetics and energetics of the molecular exchange process. We find that at a high NH 3 /H 2 O ratio, the incoming NH 3 is capable of displacing metal-bound H 2 O and moving it to secondary adsorption sites due to the stronger binding of NH 3 compared with H 2 O. Interestingly, the reverse process of H 2 O displacing metal-bound NH 3 is also possible upon increasing water concentration. Our calculations show that H 2 O exchanging the preabsorbed NH 3 at the metal site is driven not only by a reduced kinetic barrier but also by a favorable energetical state resulting from the formation of water clusters at metal sites and intermolecular H-bonding between the metal-coordinated H 2 O and displaced NH 3 . Our finding emphasizes that the description of molecular occupation in MOFs at equilibrium cannot simply be established by comparing molecules’ binding energies at their strongest binding sites derived by single-component measurements; rather, intermolecular interactions can greatly affect molecular distribution at equilibrium. Furthermore, we show that vibrational modes of adsorbed NH 3 are markedly perturbed upon contact with water molecules, accompanied by a large frequency shift (>30 cm –1 ) and considerable intensity decrease, which arises from the freezing of NH 3 vibrations by coadsorbed H 2 O. As a result, the mechanistic insight obtained through our study sheds light on molecular coadsorption processes in MOFs and helps to assess NH 3 removal efficiency of MOFs containing open-metal sites under realistic conditions, particularly in the presence of humidity.

Releasing chemical energy in spatiallyprogrammed ferroelectrics

Chemical energy ferroelectrics are generally solid macromolecules showing spontaneous polarization and chemical bonding energy. These materials still suffer drawbacks, including the limited control of energy release rate, and thermal decomposition energy well below total chemical energy. To overcome these drawbacks, we report the integrated molecular ferroelectric and energetic material from machine learning-directed additive manufacturing coupled with the ice-templating assembly. The resultant aligned porous architecture shows a low density of 0.35 g cm -3 , polarization-controlled energy release, and an anisotropic thermal conductivity ratio of 15. Thermal analysis suggests that the chlorine radicals react with macromolecules enabling a large exothermic enthalpy of reaction (6180 kJ kg -1 ). In addition, the estimated detonation velocity of molecular ferroelectrics can be tuned from 6.69 ± 0.21 to 7.79 ± 0.25 km s -1 by switching the polarization state. These results provide a pathway toward spatially programmed energetic ferroelectrics for controlled energy release rates.

Shining a Light on Some Fundamental Research Opportunities in Semiconductor Photoelectrochemistry

Decades of research in semiconductor photoelectrochemistry have yielded a deep understanding of charge transfer, energetics, and stability at solid−liquid interfaces. Theoretical frameworks developed by Gerischer and contemporaries, together with extensive experimental validation, have clarified the key principles affecting the interfacial kinetics and energetics of semiconductor photoelectrodes. Nevertheless, significant opportunities remain for advances in fundamental understanding of semiconductor photoelectrochemistry. Exciting opportunities include exploiting advances in theory, synthesis, and instrumentation to determine the chemical identity and reactivity of surface states; exerting control of band-edge energetics through molecular-level surface modification processes; and systematically improving emerging photoelectrode protection strategies to enable long-term photoelectrode operation under both oxidative and reductive conditions. Advanced morphologies, such as nanowire and microwire arrays, present new pathways to combine efficient light absorption with effective charge collection and catalyst integration. Unique light−matter interactions during photoelectrochemical deposition of p-type semiconductors readily allow preparation at scale of complex 3D morphologies that are difficult, if not impossible, to access by other methods. Continued exploration of these avenues will expand the fundamental understanding of semiconductor−liquid interfaces and could additionally advance the realization of efficient, stable, and scalable systems for solar fuel generation and other emerging photoelectrochemical applications.

The energetics and dynamics of confinement in flexible frameworks and molecular confinement

This project is part of an ongoing and long-term collaboration among Alexandra Navrotsky (who moved recently from UC Davis to Arizona State University), Nancy Ross at Virginia Tech, and Brian Woodfield at Brigham Young University (BYU) on the thermodynamics and lattice dynamics of nanophase and porous materials. Navrotsky emphasizes energetics of formation and guest molecule sorption by ambient and high temperature calorimetry, Woodfield contributes cryogenic heat capacity measurements, and Ross uses inelastic neutron scattering, X-ray and neutron diffraction, and high pressure studies to probe lattice dynamics and phase transitions. Porous frameworks form the chemical and structural basis for critical technologies in separations, catalysis, nuclear waste containment and biomedical applications. Hundreds of zeolites and metal organic frameworks (MOFs) have been synthesized, and their ability to separate and store hydrogen, methane and carbon dioxide has been investigated both experimentally and theoretically. Nevertheless, a fundamental and systematic molecular-level understanding of the thermodynamic and structural factors governing the stability and guest-host interactions in these materials lags behind focused studies of specific systems. Because the guest molecules interact with each other and with the host framework, molecular confinement is a finely balanced and complex phenomenon. The ability of the guest molecules to bind and diffuse through the pores is determined by the nature of the host framework which, in turn, responds to the nature and concentration of guest molecules and to pressure and temperature. The work explores how framework flexibility, tailored by structure, composition, temperature and pressure, is a general phenomenon, similar in nature but variable in extent, in both zeolites and MOFs and is part of a free energy landscape in which framework-guest interactions, pressure, and temperature result in changes in framework geometry and, in some cases, phase transitions. These subtle and/or pronounced changes in lattice geometry, energetics, and dynamics can play a decisive role in confinement and in differentiating the binding of molecules of similar size.

Synthesis and investigation into explosive sensitivity for a series of new picramide explosives

Tailoring the molecular properties that govern energetic material sensitivity is essential to improve safety and help develop new energetic materials. Despite this need, understanding the complex chemistry and physics of explosive initiation and propagation is still a challenge. Recent work by our group has reinforced the view that explosive sensitivity under sub-shock conditions is connected to the strength of the weakest covalent bond in the molecule, that is, its “trigger linkage.” These correlations have been observed with different classes of energetic molecules and indicate that “trigger linkage” bond breaking, and heat of explosion are good indicators for the sensitivity trends. Herein we report the synthesis of aliphatic energetic materials with ethane, propane and neopentane backbones. Experimental and computational studies show that the trigger linkage model, based on results from quantum molecular dynamics simulations, correctly predicts trends observed in the impact sensitivity of the molecules. However, while the model predicts the impact sensitivities of the ethane series, the neopentane series has higher impact sensitivities than predicted, which is presumably influenced by crystal packing effects.

These subtle and/or pronounced changes in lattice geometry, energetics, and dynamics can play a decisive role in confinement and in differentiating the binding of molecules of similar size. The free energy landscape created by these structural changes links polymorphism, amorphization, “breathing,” “gate opening” and confinement. Specifically, the generality of such behavior arises from commonalities in lattice dynamics and energetics of frameworks containing a combination of strong rigid bonds and weaker more flexible deformation modes. Identifying and describing these common and collective phenomena is the focus of the research on a selected group of zeolites and MOFs. Structural studies using X-ray and neutron diffraction explore the mechanical functionality of these important materials, specifically how framework materials respond to changes in temperature, pressure and guest loading. These structural studies are combined with calorimetric measurements, using techniques uniquely developed in the participating laboratories, of heats of formation, heat capacities and entropies, and guest-host interactions. The experimental thermodynamic studies are complemented by inelastic neutron scattering studies of the lattice dynamics related both to framework vibrations and to guest-host interactions. The report below summarizes the work done at UC Davis, which is complemented by work done at BYU (Woodfield) and Virginia Tech (Ross).

New Perspectives on Vibrational Energy Transfer in Energetic Materials: Insights from Pressure-Tuned Ultrafast Spectroscopy

Understanding the manner in which vibrational energy flows between molecular and lattice vibrations is of great interest in physical chemistry due to its central role in reactivity and energy dissipation in molecular materials. Here, in this feature article, we highlight our recent efforts employing ultrafast broadband infrared spectroscopy toward understanding the interplay between molecular and lattice vibrations in energetic materials, motivated by the open questions surrounding the role of vibrational energy transfer (VET) in reaction initiation in these materials. Our work addresses the ongoing debate on the participation of doorway modes in VET. We further present new results from high-pressure ultrafast experiments on RDX, a hydrogen-bonded material, and BNFF, a hydrogen-free material, to explore how intermolecular interaction strength governs VET pathways and time scales. Collectively, our findings reveal that vibrational dynamics in these systems occurs across three distinct time regimes, with VET being incomplete out to hundreds of picoseconds, suggesting the importance of considering nonstatistical reactions in the modeling of these materials. These time scales vary as intermolecular interaction strength is indirectly modified by application of static pressure, indicating dramatic changes to the vibrational structure of these materials under shock-relevant conditions. Our results thus shed light on how intermolecular interactions shape vibrational energy redistribution in molecular materials, and highlight the need for further theoretical and experimental investigation.

TATB thermal decomposition: Expanding the molecular profile with cryo-focused pyrolysis GC-MS

Understanding the molecular composition of high explosives during thermal decomposition is vital for predicting the sensitivity, safety, and performance of explosive materials. The thermal decomposition of 1,3,5-triamino-2,4,6-trinitrobenzene (TATB) has been linked to the formation of furazans through a series of dehydration reactions of the NO2 and NH2 groups on the phenyl ring, along with breakdown into small molecules (≤120 amu). Molecular identification of compounds formed in this transformation of the furazans to light gases has been lacking. To address this, we have applied a pseudo-confined sampling system in a cryo-focused pyrolysis gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (pyGC-MS) system to molecularly identify these intermediates. By design, sublimation of TATB, which has complicated MS analyses of thermal degradation, was significantly reduced and additional compounds were identified with potential structural information. In addition to the known furazan compounds, one of these compounds forms from the loss of oxygen from benzo-trifurazan (F3) and produces an open ring structure that may be the first step in the formation of lower molecular weight furazan breakdown products. The loss of a nitro group from benzo-monofurazan (F1) was also discovered and implicates the formation of oxidizing NO2 gas in the thermal decomposition mechanism. So these findings are vital for understanding the proper heat flow from energetic materials on a molecular level, necessary when measuring enthalpy and developing decomposition models based on kinetic parameters.

High-pressure and temperature neural network reactive force field for energetic materials

Reactive force fields for molecular dynamics have enabled a wide range of studies in numerous material classes. These force fields are computationally inexpensive compared with electronic structure calculations and allow for simulations of millions of atoms. However, the accuracy of traditional force fields is limited by their functional forms, preventing continual refinement and improvement. Therefore, we develop a neural network-based reactive interatomic potential for the prediction of the mechanical, thermal, and chemical responses of energetic materials at extreme conditions. The training set is expanded in an automatic iterative approach and consists of various CHNO materials and their reactions under ambient and shock-loading conditions. Further, this new potential shows improved accuracy over the current state-of-the-art force fields for a wide range of properties such as detonation performance, decomposition product formation, and vibrational spectra under ambient and shock-loading conditions.

Enhanced Catalysis under 2D Silica: A CO Oxidation Study

Interfacially confined microenvironments have recently gained attention in catalysis, as they can be used to modulate reaction chemistry. The emergence of a 2D nanospace at the interface between a 2D material and its support can promote varying kinetic and energetic schemes based on molecular level confinement effects imposed in this reduced volume. We report on the use of a 2D oxide cover, bilayer silica, on catalytically active Pd(111) undergoing the CO oxidation reaction. We “uncover” mechanistic insights about the structure-activity relationship with and without a 2D silica overlayer using in situ IR and X-ray spectroscopy and mass spectrometry methods. We find that the CO oxidation reaction on Pd(111) benefits from confinement effects imposed on surface adsorbates under 2D silica. Finally, this interaction results in a lower and more dispersed coverage of CO adsorbates with restricted CO adsorption geometries, which promote oxygen adsorption and lay the foundation for the formation of a reactive surface oxide that produces higher CO 2 formation rates than Pd alone.
