Mechanism of Ni-Catalyzed Photochemical Halogen Atom-Mediated C(sp 3 )–H Arylation

Within the context of Ni photoredox catalysis, halogen atom photoelimination from Ni has emerged as a fruitful strategy for enabling hydrogen atom transfer (HAT)-mediated C(sp 3 )–H functionalization. Despite the numerous synthetic transformations invoking this paradigm, a unified mechanistic hypothesis that is consistent with experimental findings on the catalytic systems and accounts for halogen radical formation and facile C(sp 2 )–C(sp 3 ) bond formation remains elusive. We employ kinetic analysis, organometallic synthesis, and computational investigations to decipher the mechanism of a prototypical Ni-catalyzed photochemical C(sp 3 )–H arylation reaction. Our findings revise the previous mechanistic proposals, first by examining the relevance of SET and EnT processes from Ni intermediates relevant to the HAT-based arylation reaction. Our investigation highlights the ability for blue light to promote efficient Ni–C(sp 2 ) bond homolysis from cationic Ni III and C(sp 2 )–C(sp 3 ) reductive elimination from bipyridine Ni II complexes. However interesting, the rates and selectivities of these processes do not account for the productive catalytic pathway. Instead, our studies support a mechanism that involves halogen atom evolution from in situ generated Ni II dihalide intermediates, radical capture by a Ni II (aryl)(halide) resting state, and key C–C bond formation from Ni III . Oxidative addition to Ni I , as opposed to Ni 0 , and rapid Ni III /Ni I comproportionation play key roles in this process. Furthermore, the findings presented herein offer fundamental insight into the reactivity of Ni in the broader context of catalysis.

Is the Matrix Completion of Reduced Density Matrices Unique?

Reduced density matrices are central to describing observables in many-body quantum systems. In electronic structure theory, the two-particle reduced density matrix (2-RDM) suffices to determine the energy and other key properties. Recent work has used matrix completion, leveraging the low-rank structure of RDMs and approximate theoretical models, to reconstruct the 2-RDM from partial data and thus reduce the computational cost. However, matrix completion is, in general, an under-determined problem. Revisiting Rosina’s theorem (Rosina, M. Queen’s Papers on Pure and Applied Mathematics , 1968, No. 11, 369), we here show that the matrix completion is unique under certain conditions, identifying the subset of 2-RDM elements that enables its exact reconstruction from incomplete information. Building on this, we introduce a hybrid quantum–stochastic algorithm that achieves exact matrix completion, demonstrated through applications to the Fermi–Hubbard model.

A Theory of Ultrafast Charge Transfer Relaxation with Non-Innocent Solvent Molecules

In this work we revisit the photodynamics of tetracyanoethylene-hexamethylbenzene (TCNE- HMB), the molecular complex studied by Hochstrasser et al. [J. Chem. Phys. 100, 4797–4810, 1994] that has long challenged the applicability of Marcus’s theory of elec- tron transfer for predicting photochemical reactions. Using a novel black-box electronic structure algorithm (time-dependent density functional theory with one double, TD- DFT-1D) to efficiently run molecular dynamics that can treat charge recombination, we run ab initio surface hopping molecular dynamics and confirm that, for a polar solvent, charge recombination rates can be incredibly fast (indeed faster than the sol- vent relaxation time); for non-polar solvents, the rate is much slower. We demonstrate that, although Marcus theory cannot be directly applied, these nonequilibrium (and sometimes incredibly fast) photoexcited dynamics can be effectively explained within a two-state model without any evidence of a transition through a conical intersection. Most importantly, for this paradigmatic model system, we are able to identify two nuclear coordinates of interest (rather than the single coordinate predicted by Marcus or a full set of internal quantum modes studied by Bixon and Jortner): the solvent relaxation in the first shell (that strongly modulates the energies of the charge trans- fer state and differentiates time scales for relaxation) and a nuclear displacement in the TCNE-HMB complex arising from a handful of vibrations that induces non-Born Oppenheimer motion and eventually facilitates an abrupt electronic transition to the ground state. Altogether, these findings suggest a tractable generalization of Marcus theory for future simulations of photochemistry with non-innocent solvent environ- ments in the spirit of a Hamiltonian suggested by Stuchebrukhov (J. Chem. Phys. 107, 3821, 1997).

CFD Simulation of the Dosing Behavior within the Atomic Layer Deposition Feeding System

The effective operation of atomic layer deposition (ALD) feeding system is the premise of realizing specific ALD processes. In the present work, a detailed computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model of the feeding system has been developed and validated, which accounts for the roles of ALD valves and manifolds. A numerical simulation of the compressible fluid flow and heat/mass transfer within the feeding system was conducted. The dosing amounts and the spatiotemporal distributions of the precursors can be accurately predicted using the CFD model, as validated by experimental results. Different precursors, operating conditions, and structures of the feeding system were simulated and analyzed to examine the operating flexibility of the feeding system. The simulation results can be adopted as the upstream boundary conditions for simulations of the ALD process in the reaction chamber. The substrate-scale simulation indicates that the effect of the feeding system on the film deposition is highly related to the surface kinetics of ALD. The present work can serve as a guide for the development and optimization of different ALD-based processes via proper operation and even the design of the feeding system.

Identifying Green Solvent Mixtures for Bioproduct Separation Using Bayesian Experimental Design

Liquid–liquid extraction (LLE) is a widely used technique for the separation and purification of liquid-phase products with applications in various industries, including pharmaceuticals, petrochemicals, and renewable chemistry. A critical step in the design of an LLE process is the selection of appropriate solvents. This study presents a new methodology for identifying solvent mixtures for bioproduct separation using Bayesian experimental design (BED). Motivated by the need for environmentally friendly and effective separation methods, we address the challenge of selecting solvent systems that balance separation efficiency, selectivity, and environmental impact while also tackling the difficulty of separating multiple bioproducts using complex solvent systems. Our approach specifically seeks to predict product partition coefficients (log10 Kp values) as thermodynamic parameters underlying solvent selection. The iterative approach integrates Bayesian optimization with experimental measurements to guide solvent selection and leverages COSMO-RS simulations to enhance high-throughput experimentation. Using the design of solvent systems for the separation of lignin-derived aromatic products via centrifugal partition chromatography (CPC) as a case study, we show that within seven iterations/cycles of the methodology, we can identify new mixtures of green solvents that align with CPC design principles. Furthermore, these results demonstrate the efficacy of the BED framework in optimizing green solvent systems for complex separations, highlighting the potential of this method to advance the field of green chemistry and contribute to the development of sustainable industrial processes.

Anisotropic interactions for continuum modeling of protein–membrane systems

In this work, a model for anisotropic interactions between proteins and cellular membranes is proposed for large-scale continuum simulations. The framework of the model is based on dynamic density functional theory, which provides a formalism to describe the lipid densities within the membrane as continuum fields while still maintaining the fidelity of the underlying molecular interactions. Within this framework, we extend recent results to include the anisotropic effects of protein–lipid interactions. As applications, we consider two membrane proteins of biological interest: a RAS–RAF complex tethered to the membrane and a membrane embedded G protein-coupled receptor. A strong qualitative and quantitative agreement is found between the numerical results and the corresponding molecular dynamics simulations. Combining the scope of continuum level simulations with the details from molecular level particle simulations enables research into protein–membrane behaviors at a more biologically relevant scale, which crucially can also be accessed via experiment.

Kinetic and modeling studies of the mechanism of the dehydrogenation of Mg(BH 4 ) 2 to Mg(B 3 H 8 ) 2

Since its discovery over 15 years ago, the reversible dehydrogenation of Mg(BH 4 ) 2 to Mg(B 3 H 8 ) 2 has remained one of the more intriguing hydrogen-cycling systems. While the mechanism of this reaction has been the subject of a good deal of speculation and computational studies, prior to this work it had not been probed through kinetic studies. Previous reports of the dehydrogenation of Mg(BH 4 ) 2 to Mg(B 3 H 8 ) 2 have not included kinetic studies. The present studies have shown that the dehydrogenation of Mg(BH 4 ) 2 to Mg(B 3 H 8 ) 2 is suppressed by hydrogen pressure indicating that the rate-limiting step in this process involves hydrogen elimination. Computational modeling of kinetic data obtained from monitoring the hydrogen elimination from Mg(BH 4 ) 2 to Mg(B 3 H 8 ) 2 under static vacuum over a range of temperatures supports that the dehydrogenation occurs through a reversible three-step process in which the elimination of hydrogen from the [B 3 H 10 ] − intermediate is rate limiting. A mechanism involving the low energy transfer of neighboring BH3 groups is proposed to account for the formation of [B 3 H 8 ] − at relatively low temperatures.

Aviation Fuel Characterization at Operationally Relevant Conditions

To accelerate approval and potentially expand the allowable property range for aviation fuels, we are using high performance computing simulations to reveal fuel property effects on aviation combustor performance. These simulations are supported by fuel property measurements over temperatures and pressures that the fuel experiences in an aircraft engine and by validated chemical kinetics models for SAF combustion. Here we report density, viscosity, and surface tension results for conventional jet fuel and multiple synthetic fuels from -30 degrees Celsius to 200 degrees Celsius (-40 degrees Celsius for viscosity) and 1 atm to 70 atm including an assessment of method repeatability. Properties of surrogate mixtures are also investigated. Distillation, ICN, LHV, flashpoint, and Cp are also reported, and data are being used to develop models to predict fuel properties from composition (GCxGC).

Structural and Dynamic Heterogeneity of Deep Eutectic Solvents Composed of Choline Chloride and Ortho-Phenol Derivatives

Structural, thermal, and dynamic properties of four deep eutectic solvents comprising choline chloride paired with ortho-phenolic derivative hydrogen-bond donors were probed using experiments and molecular simulations. The hydrogen-bond donors include phenol, catechol, o-chlorophenol, and o-cresol, in a 3:1 mixture with the hydrogen-bond acceptor choline chloride. Density, viscosity, and pulsed-field gradient NMR diffusivity measurements were conducted over a range of temperatures. Classical and ab initio molecular dynamics simulation results match experimental data reasonably well. Furthermore, the simulation results were then used to perform a more detailed analysis of the local structure and dynamics of these systems.

Resolving femtosecond photoinduced energy flow: capture of nonadiabatic reaction pathway topography and wavepacket dynamics from photoexcitation through the conical intersection seam (Final Technical Report)

The dynamics that take place within just tens to hundreds of femtoseconds following the absorption of light by a molecule can play a critical role in how the absorbed energy is directed, allowing it to be used for a specific function or dissipated harmlessly. The form of chemical change that occurs rapidly in these molecules is called a “nonadiabatic electronic transition.” Such transitions are known to mediate energy flow in natural biological systems such as the ultraviolet photoprotection mechanism of DNA and the first step of the human vision response. Understanding how these mechanisms work precisely may help scientists achieve controlled manipulation of solar energy or optical control of a wide range of energy management functions in artificial systems. Experimental methods, however, have not yet allowed a precisely resolved and complete measurement of nonadiabatic electronic transitions. This constitutes a major obstacle to progress in the field. For progress to occur that would inform a wide body of research aiming to efficiently harness the energy of light for practical purposes, it is especially important to benchmark computational models of the molecules undergoing these rapid changes with experimental measurements, in order to learn which models are accurate. With Dept. of Energy funding, we have made strong progress towards establishing a new optical method for experimentally detecting the full nonadiabatic electronic transition. This requires having coordinated pulses of light covering the visible through the mid-infrared range of the electromagnetic spectrum that last only ten femtoseconds. We have developed a new, relatively simple approach for generating such pulses of laser light, and have incorporated them into a time-resolved spectrometer for measuring rapid changes in molecules. These tools can provide the greater precision and new types of data that are needed to benchmark computational models of molecular change and thus to make progress in the field. Our tools were tested on graphene, an excellent solid-state sample for verifying the capabilities and limitations of our instrumentation. The investment made in these tools by the Dept. of Energy Office of Science will allow new fundamental scientific understanding of energy dynamics in molecules in future studies.

Olefin Coupling Catalyzed by (Pybox)Os Complexes via Osmacyclopentane Intermediates: Comparison with Isoelectronic (Phebox)Ir

(Pybox)Os is found to catalyze alkene hydrovinylation, effecting the dimerization of ethylene, tail-to-tail coupling of propene and 1-butene, and cross-coupling of ethylene with higher α-olefins. This reactivity contrasts with the previously reported dehydrogenative coupling of ethylene to give butadiene catalyzed by the isoelectronic fragment (Phebox)Ir. The reaction mechanism was investigated through computational and experimental means. Both the Os- and Ir-catalyzed reactions proceed through a [2 + 2 + 1] cyclization of the corresponding bis-olefin complex to yield an experimentally observed metallacyclopentane intermediate. In both cases, the metallacyclopentane undergoes β- H elimination, via a dechelated κ 2 -pincer-ligated intermediate, to yield a σ−π-but-3-enyl hydride complex or derivative. Both the greater reactivity and the distinct chemoselectivity of the Os system relative to the Ir system are attributable to C−H reductive elimination by the σ−π-but-3-enyl hydride having a barrier for Os much lower than that for Ir. This lower barrier to C−H elimination for Os is unexpected given that the thermodynamic driving force for elimination is much less for Os than for Ir. Computational studies of model complexes were conducted, comparing (Pybox)Os(L)(CH 3 )(H) with the isoelectronic (Phebox)Ir(L)(CH 3 )(H). The results indicate that the more facile kinetics with Os relative to Ir may be general for C−H elimination from six-coordinate d 6 complexes of the two metals, as well as for the microscopic reverse, i.e., C−H addition to the corresponding four-coordinate d 8 species.

Production and Purification of Terbium-155 Using Natural Gadolinium Targets

Terbium-155 (t 1/2 = 5.32 days) is one of four medically relevant radioisotopes of terbium. It is of interest to the field as a suitable diagnostic counterpart for therapeutic radiolanthanides, as its decay scheme includes γ-rays that are suitable for single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging. Additionally, 155 Tb has an Auger electron (AE) yield that is viable for AE therapy. There are several direct and indirect production routes that can produce 155 Tb. Two possible direct routes include proton irradiation on gadolinium targets via 155 Gd(p,n) 155 Tb and 156 Gd(p,2n) 155 Tb. The 155 Gd(p,n) 155 Tb reaction is accessible at incident proton beam energies of ∼10 MeV, whereas the 156 Gd(p,2n) 155 Tb nuclear reaction requires ∼18 MeV. This study aims to investigate the production of 155 Tb from natGd through the nat Gd(p,x) nuclear reaction, wherein both (p,n) and (p,2n) reactions were leveraged, and the purification using a three-column ion chromatography method. Using this system, recoveries of radioterbium of up to 97% were achieved in addition to high recoveries of the Gd target material, illustrating the suitability of this technique for enriched targets.

Spatially Resolved Near Field Spectroscopy of Vibrational Polaritons at the Small N Limit

Vibrational polaritons, which have been primarily studied in Fabry–Pérot cavities with a large number of molecules (N ~ 10 6 –10 10 ) coupled to the resonator mode, exhibit various experimentally observed effects on chemical reactions. However, the exact mechanism is elusively understood from the theoretical side, as the large number of molecules involved in an experimental strong coupling condition cannot be represented completely in simulations. This discrepancy between theory and experiment arises from computational descriptions of polariton systems typically being limited to only a few molecules, thus failing to represent the experimental conditions adequately. To address this mismatch, we used surface phonon polariton (SPhP) resonators as an alternative platform for vibrational strong coupling. SPhPs exhibit strong electromagnetic confinement on the surface and thus allow for coupling to a small number of molecules. As a result, this platform can enhance nonlinearity and slow down relaxation to the dark modes. In this study, we fabricated a pillar-shaped quartz resonator and then coated it with a thin layer of cobalt phthalocyanine (CoPc). By employing scattering-type scanning near-field optical microscopy (s-SNOM), we spatially investigated the dependency of vibrational strong coupling on the spatially varying electromagnetic field strength and demonstrated strong coupling with 38,000 molecules only–reaching to the small N limit. Through s-SNOM analysis, we found that strong coupling was observed primarily on the edge of the quartz pillar and the apex of the s-SNOM tip, where the maximum field enhancement occurs. In contrast, a weak resonance signal and lack of coupling were observed closer to the center of the pillar. This work demonstrates the importance of spatially resolved polariton systems in nanophotonic platforms and lays a foundation to explore polariton chemistry and chemical dynamics at the small N limit–one step closer to reconcile with high-level quantum calculations.

The Interplay of Pauli Repulsion, Electrostatics, and Field Inhomogeneity for Blueshifting and Redshifting Vibrational Probe Molecules

Many molecules' vibrational frequencies are sensitive to intermolecular electric fields, enabling them to probe the field in complex molecular environments. However, it is often unclear whether the probe is responding to the local electric field or other types of intermolecular interactions, inhibiting interpretation of the frequency and effectiveness as probes. This is especially true for molecules whose vibrational frequencies blueshift instead of the more typical redshift in hydrogen bonding configurations. In this work, we computationally investigate the causes of redshifting versus blueshifting over a range of vibrational reporters. First, we apply adiabatic energy decomposition analysis to a paradigmatic set of probes, finding that redshifting only occurs when electrostatic interactions are strong enough to overcome the dominant and large blueshifting contribution of Pauli repulsion. Furthermore, we demonstrate that field inhomogeneity can further shift the frequency of many probes substantially to either reinforce or counteract the shift expected from a homogeneous field. We find that redshifting is reinforced by electric field inhomogeneity, otherwise field inhomogeneity further weakens the electrostatic contribution relative to Pauli repulsion, leading to blueshifting. Further calculations indicate that the probe's response to field inhomogeneity can be understood by considering the mass of the atoms involved in the stretching mode and sign of the electric field. In explaining the interplay of different intermolecular interactions and field inhomogeneity for many probes, our results should enable the use and interpretation of spectroscopic probes and their connection to electric fields in more complex systems.

Tests of the DFT Ladder for the Fulminic Acid Challenge

Properties of the historically pivotal fulminic acid (HCNO) molecule have been computed with a panoply of 473 density functionals of all varieties, providing a snapshot of the performance of contemporary density functional theory (DFT) for a challenging chemical system. Exhaustive tabulations and statistical analyses have been carried out for geometric parameters, vibrational frequencies, barriers to linearity, and the HCN–O dissociation energy. As the DFT ladder is climbed, confusion rather than consensus ensues regarding the details of the distinctive, extremely flat H–C–N bending potential of fulminic acid and whether the equilibrium structure is linear or bent. While high-ranking DFT functionals produce the smallest errors for the HCN + O( 3 P) → HCNO reaction energy, lower rungs emerge as the best performers for many of the bond distances and harmonic vibrational frequencies. This research shows that the current DFT zoo of approximations does not constitute a transparent ladder of increasingly accurate methods that consistently converges on definitive predictions for various properties of HCNO. Additional analyses are performed on the side effects of popular dispersion corrections on the covalently bonded properties and thermochemistry of HCNO.

Polymer Layer-Accelerated CO 2 Absorption in Aqueous Amino Acid Solutions

Direct air capture (DAC) of CO 2 via solvent-based absorption is considered a promising negative-emission technology. However, the low concentration of CO 2 in the air and slow transport into the solvent make DAC notoriously challenging to implement without costly investments. In this study, we explore the fundamental role that the bulk and surface properties of CO 2 -permeable polymer membranes play in enhancing the efficiency of the solution sorption process in passive DAC of CO 2 . This work leverages various spectroscopic and computational studies to demonstrate that a hybrid system, comprising a reusable CO 2 -permeable polymer layer placed atop an aqueous amino acid (AA) solution, can outperform a pure aqueous AA system by 2-fold. Here we show how the enhanced solubility of CO 2 in the polymer layer can improve the transport of CO 2 into the aqueous phase, while the chemistry of the polymer can control the interfacial barrier for CO 2 permeation and the interfacial concentration of reactive AAs. The derived knowledge of the material properties achieved here can aid in the design of DAC systems with improved performance.

Towards a Deeper Fundamental Understanding of (Al,Sc)N Ferroelectric Nitrides

Density functional theory (DFT) calculations, within the virtual crystal alloy approximation, are performed, along with the development of a Landau-type model employing a symmetry-allowed analytical expression of the internal energy and having parameters determined from first principles, to investigate properties and energetics of Al1-xScxN ferroelectric nitrides in their hexagonal forms. These DFT computations and this model predict the existence of two different types of minima, namely, the fourfold-coordinated wurtzite (WZ) polar structure and a five-fold coordinated paraelectric hexagonal phase (denoted as H5), for any Sc composition up to 40%. The H5 minimum progressively becomes the lowest-energy state within hexagonal symmetry as the Sc concentration increases from 0 to 0.4. Furthermore, the model points to several key findings. Examples include the crucial role of the coupling between polarization and strains to create the WZ minimum, in addition to polar and elastic energies, and that the origin of the H5 state overcoming the WZ phase as the global minimum within hexagonal symmetry when increasing the Sc composition mostly lies in the compositional dependency of only two parameters-one linked to the polarization and another one being purely elastic in nature. Other examples are that forcing Al1-xScxN systems to have no or a weak change in lattice parameters when heating them allows us to reproduce their finite-temperature polar properties well and that a value of the axial ratio close to that of the ideal WZ structure implies a large polarization at low temperatures but not necessarily at high temperatures because of the ordered-disordered character of the temperature-induced formation of the WZ state. Such findings should allow for a better fundamental understanding of (Al,Sc)N ferroelectric nitrides, which may be used to design efficient devices having, e.g., low operating voltages.

Evaluating Direct and Indirect Influence on EV Charging Stations Across the US

The adoption of new technology for electric vehicles (EV) and mobility applications can bring underappreciated vulnerabilities to the power grid. One area of potential fraud and adversarial influence is through the business ecosystem of startups that own and deploy EV technology. Yet, there are no models or analyses that map the network of organizations and people that have direct and indirect influence over technologies currently deployed in the grid. To fill this gap, we develop a multilayer network model to measure direct and indirect influence on EV charging stations. First, we create and adversarial socio-technical network (ASTN) model via a data fusion pipeline for different US regions of interest (ROI). Then, we develop an integrated ASTN for Chicago, Los Angeles, New York, and Philadelphia. We rank EV charging companies direct influence within each geographic region as well as indirect influence via social network analysis. While some companies have strong direct and indirect influence (i.e., ChargePoint) others show a mismatch between their influence over charging stations and their position within the social network. For example, Tesla has strong direct influence on stations and weak indirect influence over competitors. In contrast, 7Charge has weak direct influence over stations, but strong indirect influence over competitors.
