The variations of the bond parameters in the course of reaction were analyzed. The zero point energy corrections were performed by vibrational analysis. The equilibrium states and the transition state were verified according to the number of virtue frequency of geometry. The intrinsic reaction coordinates (IRC) were calculated from the transition state. The calculated results show that the double bond rearrangement of butene catalyzed by 1-butyl-3-methyl-imidazolium cation is a one-step reaction. The forward energy barrier of isomerization from 1-butene to 2- butene is about 193 kJ·mol-1 and the reverse energy barrier about 209 kJ·mol-1 at the B3LYP/6- 31G(d,p) level, which means that the reaction is easy to proceed at or above room temperature.展开更多
The Hartree-Fock method has been employed to investigate the electronic structures of EMIM^+(1-ethyl-3-methyl-imidazolium^+), CuCl2^-, Cu2Cl3^-, CuCl3^2-, EMIM+^-CuCl2^-, EMIM^+-Cu2Cl3^-, and EMIM^+-CuCl3^2- pa...The Hartree-Fock method has been employed to investigate the electronic structures of EMIM^+(1-ethyl-3-methyl-imidazolium^+), CuCl2^-, Cu2Cl3^-, CuCl3^2-, EMIM+^-CuCl2^-, EMIM^+-Cu2Cl3^-, and EMIM^+-CuCl3^2- pairs. Full optimization and frequency analyses of EMIM^+, CuCl2^-, Cu2Cl3^-, CuC13^-, eight initial EMIM^+-CuCl2^-, six EMIM^+-Cu2Cl3^-, and four EMIM^+-CuCl3^2- geometries have been carried out using Gaussian-94 soft-package at 6-31+G(d,p) basis set level for hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, chlorine atoms and Hay-Wadt effective core potential for copper atom. The electronic structures of lowest energy of EMIM^+-CuCl2^-, EMIM+-Cu2Cl3^-, EMIM^+-CuCl3^2-, single EMIM^+, CuCl2^-, Cu2Cl3^-, and CuCl3^2- have been comparatively studied. The calculated results showed that EMIM^+-CuCl2^- pair conformer of lowest energy was five ring parallel to Cl-Cu-Cl with 3.2A distance, EMIM^+-CuCl3^2- pair conformer of lowest energy was five ring parallel to CuCl3^2-plane with 3.4A distance, and the optimized EMIM^+-Cu2Cl3^- pair conformer of lowest energy was five ring perpendicular to Cl-Cu-Cl-Cu-Cl plane with 3.0A distance between the terminal Cl atoms and the 5-ring of EMIM^+. The cohesion between cations and anions is brought about by C-H. C1 hydrogen bonds that are reinforced by charge assistance. The frequency analyses suggested that all stationary points are minimum because of no appearing of imaginary frequency. The assigned frequencies were in agreement with the experimental report. The low energy of interaction because of the bulkyasymmetry of EMIM+ and the charge dispersion of cation and anion leads to the low melting point of the ionic liquids, EMIM^+-CuCl2^-, EMIM^+-Cu2Cl3^-, and EMIM^+-CuCl3^2-. The interaction energy of EMIM^+-CuCl2^-, EMIM^+-Cu2Cl3^-, and EMIM^+-CuCl3^2- is 309.0 kJ/mol, 316.8 kJ/mol, and 320.2 kJ/mol, respectively. The relationship of interaction energy via distance between cations and anions was also investigated by single point energy scan.展开更多

The viscosity of Nd dissolved ionic liquid and the surface morphologies of Nd were characterized using an Ostwald viscometer and a scanning electron microscope, respectively. The chemical composition of Nd surface was indentified by Raman spectra. The results showed that dissolution of Nd under anodic polarization occurred after the breakdown of oxide films. A viscous layer formed at the interface of Nd/ionic liquid during the galvanostatic process of 5 and 20 mA/cm^2. The formation of viscous layer was attributed to the accumulation of Nd dissolved AlCl3-EMIC ionic liquid, which had high viscosity. The oxide films could be removed thoroughly and the surface of Nd was homogeneous without etching pits, when viscous layer formed in the anodic process. Otherwise, the surface showed a pitting morphology.展开更多

The interfacial tensions(IFT) were measured and corresponding variations were investigated. An IFT reduction of 80.8% was appropriate under the IL CMC of about 0.1 mol·L^-1 and stronger effects were achieved when magnetite nanoparticles and salts were present profoundly under alkaline p Hs.The equilibrium IFT data were accurately simulated with the Frumkin adsorption model. Hereafter, the saturated surface concentration, equilibrium constant and interaction parameter were obtained and their variations were demonstrated. Further, emulsion stability and contact angle of oil/water interface over quartz surface were studied. The oil/water emulsion stability was hardly changed with nanoparticles;however, the stability of oil/water + IL emulsions was significantly improved. It was also revealed that the presence of sodium and calcium chloride electrolytes fortifies the IL impact, whereas sodium sulfate weakens. From dynamic IFT data and fitting with kinetic models, it was found that the IL migration toward interface follows the mixed diffusion–kinetic control model. Consequently, the IL diffusion coefficient and the appropriate activation energy were determined.展开更多
