The dissociative attachment (DA) process appears in a surprisingly diverse number of research disciplines. Although gas phase studies have been carried out for approximately 30 years, there are no calculations of the cross sections for this process in molecules larger than diatomics. In this presentation, we review briefly the role of DA in several contexts generally unfamiliar to workers in atomic and molecular physics, and touch on some of the theoretical difficulties. We continue with a discussion of our work, both experimental and theoretical, on compounds containing a single halogen atom and conclude with results showing how the DA process can be used to study intramolecular electron transfer.

For the π-bridged multi-PDI derivatives, intramolecular electron transfer is dictated by the super-exchange mechanism and can be greatly tuned by the π-bridge modes.

The cross sections for the self-reaction of state-selected HCl+ (DCl+) ions with HCl are shown to depend characteristically on the rotational velocity of the ion relative to that of the neutral.

A theoretical model concerning the finite bending of a prismatic hyperelastic solid has been recently proposed. Such a model provides the 3D kinematics and the stress field, taking into account the anticlastic effects arising in the transverse cross sections also. That model has been used later to extend the Elastica in the framework of finite elasticity. In the present work, Finite Element (FE) analyses of some basic structural systems subjected to finite bending have been carried out and the results have been compared with those provided by the theoretical model performed previously. In the theoretical formulation, the governing equation is the nonlinear local relationship between the bending moment and the curvature of the longitudinal axis of the bent beam. Such a relation has been provided in dimensionless form as a function of the Mooney–Rivlin constitutive constants and two kinematic dimensionless parameters termed Eulerian slenderness and compactness index of the cross section. Such parameters take relevance as they are involved in the well-known Searle parameter for bent solids. Two significant study cases have been investigated in detail. The results point out that the theoretical model leads to reliable results provided that the Eulerian slenderness and the compactness index of the cross sections do not exceed fixed threshold values.

The homogeneous catalysis of phenylmethanethiol autoxidation ���������������������� 2PhCH2SH+O2 → PhCH2SSCH2Ph+H2O2 by [Co(mnt)2]22- (mnt, doubly deprotonated dimercaptomaleonitrile) in acetonitrile solution buffered with excess PhMe2N and PhMe2NH+ClO4- at 18.0�C is described. Effective catalysis occurs in this medium, with catalyst complex decomposition less than 1 mole % of the turnover. Spectrophotometric and oxygen-consumption kinetic data indicate that the mechanism involves initial coordination of the thiolate to [Co(mnt)2]- to form an intermediate which then, with Bronsted acid assistance, interacts with oxygen to form a second intermediate, which dissociates to products and regenerates [Co(mnt)2]22-. It is concluded that the role of the catalyst is to sequentially coordinate and activate the reactants and facilitate intramolecular electron transfer from thiolate to oxygen, without itself undergoing reduction or oxidation or dithiolene ligand substitution.

The mechanism of aromatic nitration is critically reviewed with particular emphasis on the paradox of the high positional selectivity of substitution in spite of low substrate selectivity. Early quantum chemical computations in the gas phase have suggested that the retention of positional selectivity at encounter-limited rates could be ascribed to the formation of a radical pair via an electron transfer step occurring before the formation of the Wheland intermediate, but calculations which account for the effects of solvent polarization and the presence of counterion do not support that point of view. Here we report a brief survey of the available experimental and theoretical data, adding a few more computations for better clarifying the role of electron transfer for regioselectivity.
