Low-energy acetol ions CH3C(=O)CH2OH•+, 1, dissociate to CH3C(H)OH+ and HC=O• by a double hydrogen transfer (DHT), a common reaction among oxygen-containing radical cations. Recent experimental work has shown that the isotopologue CH3C(=O)CH2OD•+ specifically loses HC=O• to produce CH3C(D)OH+. This finding refutes an earlier postulated attractive mechanism based on the behaviour of 1 in ion-molecule reactions. Using ab initio MO calculations (at the CEPA//RHF/DZP level of theory complemented with valence bond (VB) methods), a low-energy pathway was traced that may explain all of the available experimental observations. It is shown that the unimolecular chemistry of 1 can be understood in terms of two proton transfers, taking place in intermediate O•H•O and C•H•O bonded hydrogen-bridged radical cations. The two protons originate from the same moiety and a charge transfer complex is therefore implicated and shown to be involved. These concepts of proton and charge transfer may well be more generally applicable and they do correctly predict the unimolecular chemistry of ionized acetoin, CH3C(=O)CH(CH3)OH•+ and related α-ketols. Key words: ab initio calculations, hydrogen-bridged ions.

AbstractColloidal CdSe nanocrystals (NCs) have shown promise in applications ranging from LED displays to medical imaging. Their unique photophysics depend sensitively on the presence or absence of surface defects. Using simulations, we show that CdSe NCs are inherently defective; even for stoichiometric NCs with perfect ligand passivation and no vacancies or defects, we still observe that the low energy spectrum is dominated by dark, surface-associated excitations, which are more numerous in larger NCs. Surface structure analysis shows that the majority of these states involve holes that are localized on two-coordinate Se atoms. As chalcogenide atoms are not passivated by any Lewis base ligand, varying the ligand should not dramatically change the number of dark states, which we confirm by simulating three passivation schemes. Our results have significant implications for understanding CdSe NC photophysics, and suggest that photochemistry and short-range photoinduced charge transfer should be much more facile than previously anticipated.
