Deuterium Isotope Effects

The effect of six deuterated phenols on the rate and degree of polymerization of styrene has been studied. The rate and degree of polymerization are decreased by deuterated phenols to a much less extent than by the corresponding phenols. Approximate transfer constants are estimated, and it is found that the transfer constant for hydrogen abstraction from the deuterated phenol is less than 0.2 of the transfer constant for the normal phenol. The rates of reaction of 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl with three deuterated phenols have been determined. The rate constants for deuterated 2,6-di-t-butylphenol and 4-bromophenol are less than 0.15 of those for the corresponding phenols, but the isotope effect appears to be small with 4-nitrophenol.

We found that oxidation of cyclic ethers with the Ru porphyrin-heteroaromatic N-oxide system gave lactones or/and ring-opened oxidized products with regioselectivity. A relatively high kinetic isotope effect was observed in the ether oxidation, suggesting that the rate-determining step is the first hydrogen abstraction.

Quantum Chemistry Calculations

During coal self-heating, reactions of carboxyl groups feature in the evolution of the spontaneous combustion of coal. However, their elementary reaction pathways during this process still have not been revealed. This paper selected the Ar–CH2–COOH as a typical carboxyl group containing structure for the analysis of the reaction pathways and enhancement effect on the coal self-heating process by quantum chemistry calculations. The results indicate that the hydrogen atoms in carboxyl groups are the active sites, which undergo the oxidation process and self-reaction process during coal self-heating. They both have two elementary reactions, namely (i) the hydrogen abstraction of –COOH by oxygen and the decarboxylation of the –COO· free radical and (ii) the hydrogen abstraction of –COOH and its pyrolysis. The total enthalpy change and activation energy of the oxidation process are 76.93 kJ/mol and 127.85 kJ/mol, respectively, which indicate that this process is endothermic and will occur at medium temperatures. For the hydrogen abstraction of –COOH by hydrocarbon free radicals, the thermal parameters are 53.53 kJ/mol and 56.13 kJ/mol, respectively, which has the same thermodynamic properties as the oxidation process. However, for the pyrolysis, the thermal parameters are –42.53 kJ/mol and 493.68 kJ/mol, respectively, and is thus exothermic and would not occur until the coal reaches high temperatures. They affect heat accumulation greatly, generate carbon dioxide, and provide new active centers for enhancing the coal self-heating process. The results would be helpful for further understanding of the coal self-heating mechanism.

In an attempt to distinguish between ionic and free radical mechanisms for the photorearrangement of azoxybenzene to 2-hydroxyazobenzene, aromatic azoxycompounds carrying C—H functions ortho to the azoxy linkage have been prepared and irradiated. The failure of these weaker C—H bonds to divert the reaction from its normal course argues against a hydrogen abstraction–hydroxyl transfer mechanism. This conclusion is supported by the observation of a 30-fold increase in quantum yield for 2-hydroxyazobenzene formation on changing from a non-polar to a polar solvent and by the kinetic deuterium isotope effect, which is too small for the primary isotope effect required by the abstraction mechanism. It is concluded that the experimental observations to date may most easily be accommodated in the route originally proposed by Badger and Buttery, where the rearrangement is seen as a substitution by oxygen at the ortho ring carbon.

Hydrogen abstraction by CF3 radicals from CH3COOCH3 and CD3COOCH3 has been studied in the temperature range 78-242°, and data have been obtained for the reactions: CF3 + CH3COOCH3 → CF3H+[C3H5O2] �������������(3) CF3 + CH3COOCH3 → CF3H+CH2COOCH3������������ (4) CF3 + CD3COOCH3 → CF3D+CD2COOCH3������������ (6) CF3 + CD3COOCH3 → CF3H+CD3COOCH2������������ (7) The corresponding rate constants, based on the value of 1013.36 cm3 mol-1 S-1 for the recombination of CF3 radicals, are given by (k in cm3 mol-1 s-1 and E in J mol-1): logk3 = (11.52�0.05)-(35430�380)/19.145T ���� (3)logk4 = (11.19�0.07)-(34680�550)/19.145T ���� (4)logk6 = (11.34�0.06)-(46490�490)/19.145T ���� (6)logk7 = (11.26�0.05)-(36440�400)/19.145T ���� (7)At 400 K, 59% of abstraction occurs from the acetyl group, and 41 % from the methoxy group. The kinetic isotope effect at 400 K for attack on the acetyl group is 25, due mainly to a difference in activation energies.

Hydroxyl groups are one of the key factors for the development of coal self-heating, although their detailed reaction pathways are still unclear. This study investigated the reaction pathways in coal self-heating by the method of quantum chemistry calculation. The Ar–CH2–CH(CH3)–OH was selected as a typical structure unit for the calculation. The results indicate that the hydrogen atoms in hydroxyl groups and R3–CH are the active sites. For the hydrogen atoms in hydroxyl groups, they are directly abstracted by oxygen. For hydrogen atoms in R3–CH, they are abstracted by oxygen at first and generate peroxy-hydroxyl free radicals, which abstract the hydrogen atoms in hydroxyl groups later. The reaction of R3–CH contains three elementary reactions, i.e., the hydrogen abstraction of R3–CH by oxygen, the conjugation reaction between the R3C■ and oxygen atom, and the hydrogen abstraction of –OH by hydroxyl free radicals. Then, the microstructure parameters, IRC pathways, and reaction dynamic parameters were respectively analyzed for the four reactions. For the hydrogen abstraction of –OH by oxygen, the enthalpy change and activation energy are 137.63 and 334.44 kJ/mol, respectively, which will occur at medium temperatures and the corresponding heat effect is great. For the reaction of R3–CH, the enthalpy change and the activation energy are −3.45 and 55.79 kJ/mol, respectively, which will occur at low temperatures while the corresponding heat influence is weak. They both affect heat accumulation and provide new active centers for enhancing the coal self-heating process. The results would be helpful for further understanding of the coal self-heating mechanism.
