Theoretical study of the adsorption of benzene on coinage metals.

ABSTRACT: The adsorption of benzene on the M(111), M(100) and M(110) surfaces of the coinage metals copper (M = Cu), silver (M = Ag) and gold (M = Au) is studied on the basis of density functional theory (DFT) calculations with an empirical dispersion correction (D3). Variants of the Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof functionals (PBE, RPBE and RevPBE) in combination with different versions of the dispersion correction (D3 and D3(BJ)) are compared. PBE-D3, PBE-D3(BJ) and RPBE-D3 give similar results which exhibit a good agreement with experimental data. RevPBE-D3 and RevPBE-D3(BJ) tend to overestimate adsorption energies. The inclusion of three-center terms (PBE-D3(ABC)) leads to a slightly better agreement with the experiment in most cases. Vertical adsorbate-substrate distances are calculated and compared to previous theoretical results. The observed trends for the surfaces and metals are consistent with the calculated adsorption energies.

Theoretical Study of As?O? Adsorption Mechanisms on CaO surface.

Project description:Emission of hazardous trace elements, especially arsenic from fossil fuel combustion, have become a major concern. Under an oxidizing atmosphere, most of the arsenic converts to gaseous As?O?. CaO has been proven effective in capturing As?O?. In this study, the mechanisms of As?O? adsorption on CaO surface under O? atmosphere were investigated by density functional theory (DFT) calculation. Stable physisorption and chemisorption structures and related reaction paths are determined; arsenite (AsO?3-) is proven to be the form of adsorption products. Under the O? atmosphere, the adsorption product is arsenate (AsO?3-), while tricalcium orthoarsenate (Ca?As?O?) and dicalcium pyroarsenate (Ca?As?O?) are formed according to different adsorption structures.

Relevance of Orbital Interactions and Pauli Repulsion in the Metal-Metal Bond of Coinage Metals.

Project description:The importance of relativity and dispersion in metallophilicity has been discussed in numerous studies. The existence of hybridization in the bonding between closed shell d10-d10 metal atoms has also been speculated, but the presence of attractive MO interaction in the metal-metal bond is still a matter of an ongoing debate. In this comparative study, a quantitative molecular orbital analysis and energy decomposition is carried out on the metallophilic interaction in atomic dimers (M+···M+) and molecular perpendicular [H3P-M-X]2 (where M = Cu, Ag, and Au; X = F, Cl, Br, and I). Our computational studies prove that besides the commonly accepted dispersive interactions, orbital interactions and Pauli repulsion also play a crucial role in the strength and length of the metal-metal bond. Although for M+···M+ the orbital interaction is larger than the Pauli repulsion, leading to a net attractive MO interaction, the bonding mechanism in perpendicular [H3P-M-X] dimers is different due to the larger separation between the donor and acceptor orbitals. Thus, Pauli repulsion is much larger, and two-orbital, four-electron repulsion is dominant.

Theoretical Study of Hydrogen on LaFeO₃ (010) Surface Adsorption and Subsurface Diffusion.

Project description:Based on density functional theory, this paper studies the adsorption and the subsurface occupation by H on LaFeO₃ (010) surface and their corresponding transition states. As shown from the results, the best storage positions of hydrogen are on the O top position of the LaFeO₃ (010) surface and the interstice near the oxygen of the subsurface. In addition, the position of surface Fe atom can also store hydrogen, but H atom prefers to adsorb on O atom first. Whether the H atom is adsorbed on O or Fe atom, it is easy diffuse to the nearby more stable O atom. However, the diffusion between the Fe atoms is difficult to occur. The main diffusion path of the H atom from the surface to the subsurface is the process of inward layer by layer around the O atom. With the fracture of the old H⁻O bond and the formation of the new H⁻O bond, the H is around O atom to constantly repeat the process of a hopping-rotational diffusion. H diffuses through the nearest neighbor position, which is more favorable than the direct diffusion.

Adsorption of Aspartic Acid on Ni{100}: A Combined Experimental and Theoretical Study.

Project description:Understanding the interaction of amino acids with metal surfaces is essential for the rational design of chiral modifiers able to confer enantioselectivity to metal catalysts. Here, we present an investigation of the adsorption of aspartic acid (Asp) on the Ni{100} surface, using a combination of synchrotron X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure, and density functional theory simulations. Based on the combined analysis of the experimental and simulated data, we can identify the dominant mode of adsorption as a pentadentate configuration with three O atoms at the bridge sites of the surfaces, and the remaining oxygen atom and the amino nitrogen are located on atop sites. From temperature-programmed XPS measurements, it was found that Asp starts decomposing above 400 K, which is significantly higher than typical decomposition temperatures of smaller organic molecules on Ni surfaces. Our results offer valuable insights into understanding the role of Asp as a chiral modifier of nickel catalyst surfaces in enantioselective hydrogenation reactions.

Detection of Heavy Metals in Water Using Graphene Oxide Quantum Dots: An Experimental and Theoretical Study.

Project description:In this work, we investigate by ab initio calculations and optical experiments the sensitivity of graphene quantum dots in their use as devices to measure the presence, and concentration, of heavy metals in water. We demonstrate that the quenching or enhancement in the optical response (absorption, emission) depends on the metallic ion considered. In particular, two cases of opposite behaviour are considered in detail: Cd2+, where we observe an increase in the emission optical response for increasing concentration, and Pb2+ whose emission spectra, vice versa, are quenched along the concentration rise. The experimental trends reported comply nicely with the different hydration patterns suggested by the models that are also capable of reproducing the minor quenching/enhancing effects observed in other ions. We envisage that quantum dots of graphene may be routinely used as cheap detectors to measure the degree of poisoning ions in water.

Theoretical Investigation of Carbon Dioxide Adsorption on Li+-Decorated Nanoflakes.

Project description:Recently, the capture of carbon dioxide, the primary greenhouse gas, has attracted particular interest from researchers worldwide. In the present work, several theoretical methods have been used to study adsorption of CO2 molecules on Li+-decorated coronene (Li+@coronene). It has been established that Li+ can be strongly anchored on coronene, and then a physical adsorption of CO2 will occur in the vicinity of this cation. Moreover, such a decoration has substantially improved interaction energy (Eint) between CO2 molecules and the adsorbent. One to twelve CO2 molecules per one Li+ have been considered, and their Eint values are in the range from -5.55 to -16.87 kcal/mol. Symmetry-adapted perturbation theory (SAPT0) calculations have shown that, depending on the quantity of adsorbed CO2 molecules, different energy components act as the main reason for attraction. AIMD simulations allow estimating gravimetric densities (GD, wt.%) at various temperatures, and the maximal GDs have been calculated to be 9.3, 6.0, and 4.9% at T = 77, 300, and 400 K, respectively. Besides this, AIMD calculations validate stability of Li+@coronene complexes during simulation time at the maximum CO2 loading. Bader's atoms-in-molecules (QTAIM) and independent gradient model (IGM) techniques have been implemented to unveil the features of interactions between CO2 and Li+@coronene. These methods have proved that there exists a non-covalent bonding between the cation center and CO2. We suppose that findings, derived in this theoretical work, may also benefit the design of novel nanosystems for gas storage and delivery.

Study of CeO? Modified AlNi Mixed Pillared Clays Supported Palladium Catalysts for Benzene Adsorption/Desorption-Catalytic Combustion.

Project description:A new functional AlNi-pillared clays (AlNi-PILC) with a large surface area and pore volume was synthesized. The performance of adsorption/desorption-catalytic combustion over CeO2-modified Pd/AlNi-PILC catalysts was also studied. The results showed that the d001-value and specific surface area (SBET) of AlNi-PILC reached 2.11 nm and 374.8 m²/g, respectively. The large SBET and the d001-value improved the high capacity for benzene adsorption. Also, the strong interaction between PdCe mixed oxides and AlNi-PILC led to the high dispersion of PdO and CeO? on the support, which was responsible for the high catalytic performance. Especially, 0.2% Pd/12.5% Ce/AlNi-PILC presented high performance for benzene combustion at 240 °C and high CO? selectivity. Also, the combustion temperatures were lower compared to the desorption temperatures, which demonstrated that it could accomplish benzene combustion during the desorption process. Furthermore, its activity did not decrease after continuous reaction for 1000 h in dry air, and it also displayed good resistance to water and the chlorinated compound, making it a promising catalytic material for the elimination of volatile organic compounds.
