RESUMO
Photochemical reactions of salicylhydroxamic acid were induced using tunable UV laser radiation followed by FTIR spectroscopy. Four pairs of co-products were experimentally found to appear in the photolysis: C6H4(OH)NCOâ¯H2O (1), C6H4(OH)C(O)Nâ¯H2O (2), C6H4(OH)2â¯HNCO (3), and C6H4(OH)NHOHâ¯CO (4). The comparison of the theoretical spectra with the experimental ones allowed us to determine the structures of the complexes formed in the matrices. The mechanisms of the reaction channels leading to the formation of the photoproducts were proposed. It was concluded that the first step in the formation of the complexes (1), (2), and (3) was the scission of the N-O bond, whereas the creation of complex (4) was due to cleavage of the C-N bond.
RESUMO
In this paper, the photochemistry of glyoxal−hydroxylamine (Gly−HA) complexes is studied using FTIR matrix isolation spectroscopy and ab initio calculations. The irradiation of the Gly−HA complexes with the filtered output of a mercury lamp (λ > 370 nm) leads to their photoconversion to hydroxyketene−hydroxylamine complexes and the formation of hydroxy(hydroxyamino)acetaldehyde with a hemiaminal structure. The first product is the result of a double hydrogen exchange reaction between the aldehyde group of Gly and the amino or hydroxyl group of HA. The second product is formed as a result of the addition of the nitrogen atom of HA to the carbon atom of one aldehyde group of Gly, followed by the migration of the hydrogen atom from the amino group of hydroxylamine to the oxygen atom of the carbonyl group of glyoxal. The identification of the products is confirmed by deuterium substitution and by MP2 calculations of the structures and vibrational spectra of the identified species.

The interactions of formaldehyde (FA), glyoxal (Gly) and methylglyoxal (MGly) with hydroxylamine (HA) isolated in solid argon and nitrogen were studied using FTIR spectroscopy and ab initio methods. The spectra analysis indicates the formation of two types of hydrogen-bonded complexes between carbonyl and hydroxylamine in the studied matrices. The cyclic planar complexes are stabilized by O-Hâ¯O(C), and C-Hâ¯N interactions and the nonplanar complexes are stabilized by O-Hâ¯O(C) bond. Formaldehyde was found to form with hydroxylamine, the cyclic planar complex and methylglyoxal, the nonplanar one in both argon and nitrogen matrices. In turn, glyoxal forms with hydroxylamine the most stable nonplanar complex in solid argon, whereas in solid nitrogen, both types of the complex are formed.

The products formed during exposure of the CH3CONHOH/Ar (AHA/Ar) matrices to the full output of the Xe lamp and to 225 nm OPO radiation are studied. The irradiation promotes the isomerization, 1Z â 1E, and AHA photodissociation reactions. Four pairs of coproducts are experimentally found to appear in the photolysis, they form the complexes: CH3OH···HNCO (1), H2O···CH3NCO (2), H2O···CH3CNO (3) and CO···CH3NHOH (4). The structures of the complexes were optimized at the MP2 computational level with the 6-311++G(2d,2p) and aug-cc-pVTZ basis sets. Three local minima were predicted for the complex (1), two for the complexes (2) and (3) and four local minima were found for the complex (4). The comparison of the theoretical spectra with the experimental ones allowed us to determine the structures of the complexes formed in the matrix. The mechanisms of the reaction channels leading to formation of the four coproducts are proposed. It is concluded that the first step in formation of the (1), (2) and (3) complexes is the scission of the N-O bond whereas the creation of the complex (4) is due to the cleavage of the C-N bond.
RESUMO
The complexes of ammonia with sulfur trioxide have been studied using FTIR matrix isolation spectroscopy and DFT/B3LYP calculations with the aug-cc-pVTZ basis set. The NH3/SO3/Ar matrixes were prepared in two different ways. In one set of experiments the matrix was prepared by the simultaneous deposition of the NH3/Ar mixture and SO3 vapor from the thermal decomposition of K2S2O7. In the second set of experiments thermolysis products of sulfamic acid were trapped in an argon matrix. Both methods of matrix preparation led to the formation of the H3N·SO3 electron donor-acceptor complex that was characterized earlier. In the matrixes comprising thermolysis products of sulfamic acid, in addition to H3N·SO3, the H3N-SO3···NH3 complex (II(D)) was also identified. The identity of the complex was confirmed by comparison of the experimental and theoretical spectra of H3N-SO3···NH3 and D3N-SO3···ND3. The performed calculations show that in H3N-SO3···NH3 the two N atoms and the S atom are collinear; the two S-N bonds are nonequivalent, one is much shorter (2.230 Å) than the other one (2.852 Å). In the AIM topological analysis, the interaction energy decomposition and topological properties of the electron localizability indicator (ELI-D) allowed us to categorize the stronger N-S bond in the II(D) complex as a dative bond and to assume that the fragile N-S bond is a consequence of a weak electron-donor-acceptor interaction. The calculations indicate that the identified II(D) complex corresponds to a local minimum on the PES of the NH3/SO3 system of 2:1 stoichiometry. The (NH3)2SO3 complex, II(HB), corresponding to a global minimum is 7.95 kcal mol(-1) more stable than the II(D) complex. The reason that the II(D) complex is present in the matrix but not the II(HB) complex is discussed.
RESUMO
The complexes of acetic acid (AcOH) with water have been studied using FTIR matrix isolation spectroscopy and DFT/B3LYP, DFT/B3LYP-D, and MP2 calculations with the aug-cc-pVTZ basis set. The AcOH/H2O/Ar matrices were prepared in two different ways. In one set of experiments, the vapor above a solid AcOH sample, cooled to 203 K, was diluted with H2O/Ar mixture in the vacuum chamber of the cryostat, and the mixture was solidified on the target. In the second set of experiments, the matrix was prepared by simultaneous deposition of AcOH/Ar and H2O/Ar mixtures at room temperature. The first method of matrix preparation strongly favors the formation of the "acyclic" higher energy AcOH-H2O complex I(B) compared to the second one. Warming of matrices containing the higher energy complex, I(B), from 11 to 39 K, results in the decrease of I(B) concentration and formation of the lowest energy cyclic complex I(A). The calculations indicate that I(B) is formed by an O-H···O hydrogen bond between the carbonyl oxygen and a water O-H group and, additionally, by a weak interaction between one of the methyl group hydrogen atoms and the water oxygen atom. The cyclic complex I(A) has a six-membered ring involving two O-H···O bonds. An activation energy of 0.94, 1.71, and 1.38 kcal mol(-1) was calculated for the I(B) â I(A) rearrangement at the B3LYP, B3LYP-D, and MP2 levels of theory, respectively. Van't Hoff plots for the association of H2O and AcOH leading to formation of the complexes I(A) and I(B) are presented and discussed. Evidence is also given for the formation of the AcOH-(H2O)2 and (AcOH)2-H2O complexes in the matrices. A potential atmospheric impact of the enhanced formation of the higher energy I(B) complex at low temperatures is discussed.
RESUMO
Matrix isolation spectroscopy has been combined with ab initio calculations to characterize the 1:1 complexes of H2O2 with OCS and CS2. The infrared spectra of the argon and nitrogen matrices doped with H2O2 and OCS or CS2 have been measured and analyzed. The geometries of the complexes were optimized at the MP2/6-311++G(3df,3pd) level of theory. Four structures were found for the OCS-H2O2 complex and five for the CS2-H2O2 one; every pair of the corresponding structures showed close correspondence. For every optimized structure the interaction energy was partitioned according to the SAPT Scheme and the topological distribution of the charge density (AIM theory) was performed. The SAPT analysis and AIM results indicate that only one complex among the nine optimized ones is stabilized by the hydrogen bonding, namely the OCS-H2O2 one with the OH group of H2O2 bonded to an oxygen atom of OCS. The other structures are stabilized by van der Waals interaction. The spectra analysis evidences that at least two types of the complexes are trapped in the argon matrices including the most stable ones: hydrogen bonded structure in the case of the OCS-H2O2 complex and the structure stabilized by the S···H and C···O interactions in the case of the CS2-H2O2 complex. The solid nitrogen environment triggers the formation of the structures of C2v symmetry with a sulfur atom of OCS or CS2 directed toward the center of O-O bond of H2O2, stabilized by S···O interactions.

RATIONALE: Aminosulfonic acids are structurally related to amino acids as bifunctional compounds. Some of them like taurine and homotaurine play important roles in biology. Although there is a vast literature devoted to the electrospray ionization mass spectrometric (ESI-MS) study of amino acid aggregation, no such study has been performed so far for aminosulfonic acids. METHODS: A gas-phase clustering study was performed for aminomethanesulfonic acid (AMS), taurine (Tau), homotaurine (HT), and cysteic acid (CA) from water and methanol/water solutions, using a Bruker TOF-Q spectrometer equipped with an ESI source, in the negative-ion mode. For selected anionic clusters the tandem mass (MS/MS) spectra were recorded and the breakdown curves were obtained. The cluster formation abilities (ACS parameter) of the studied molecules were calculated. RESULTS: Both singly and doubly charged clusters were formed when the acids were electrosprayed from water solutions; they may be described as [(H3N-R-SO3)n-zH](z-), where z = 1 or 2. The largest identified clusters are built of 20, 22, 20 and 4 monomers of AMS, Tau, HT and CA, respectively. The doubly negatively charged clusters were observed for n ≥9, 12, 14 in the case of AMS, Tau and HT. AMS pentamers and Tau, HT tetramers and hexamers show higher stabilities than the other clusters. CONCLUSIONS: The results indicate that aminosulfonic acids form large stable clusters, similarly to aminocarboxylic acids. The cluster formation ability decreases with an increase in CH2 chain length within the series of the studied compounds. The large singly and doubly charged aggregates are formed under the conditions of the experiment, possibly in the droplets. Taurine dissolved in water seems to be a good calibrant for electrospray instruments in negative ion mode.
RESUMO
We report the results of the theoretical study of (â¢)OH-induced oxidative cleavage of dimethyl disulfide (DMDS) and the experimental study of the CH3SSCH3 + (â¢)OH reaction in the presence of (â¢)NO. Infrared low temperature argon matrix studies combined with ab initio calculations allowed us to identify cis-CH3SONO, which evidences the formation of the CH3SO(â¢) and CH3SH molecules in the course of the CH3SSCH3 + (â¢)OH reaction. Ab initio/quantum chemical topology calculations revealed details of the oxidative cleavage of dimethyl disulfide, which is a complex multistep process involving an alteration of S-O and S-S covalent bonds as well as a hydrogen atom transfer. The ability of delocalization of the unpaired electron density by sulfur atoms and a formation of a hydrogen bond by CH3SO(â¢) and CH3SH are the factors which seem to explain antiradical properties of DMDS.
RESUMO
Two Schiff bases: 2-(1-(methylimino)methyl)-phenol (SMA) and its chlorosubstituted derivative 2-(1-(methylimino)methyl)-6-chlorophenol (SMAC), and SMA complexes with water were studied by infrared matrix isolation spectroscopy and DFT/B3LYP/6-311G++(2d,2p) quantum chemical calculations. SMA and SMAC bases trapped in an argon matrix from the vapor above the liquid and solid samples have the most stable enol conformation with intramolecular O-H···N bonding. Irradiation (λ > 320 nm) leads in both bases to a rotational isomerization reaction in which the scission of the O-H···N bond occurs and the C(H)NCH(3) and OH groups are turned by 180° around the C-C and C-O bonds, respectively. In SMAC a competitive photoreaction channel yields the trans-keto tautomer. The identification of the two SMAC photoproducts evidences that in the excited enol form of this compound two processes compete with each other: the rotational isomerization and intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT). In the argon matrices doped with SMA and H(2)O the SMA-water complexes were identified and characterized spectroscopically. Interaction of SMA with one or two water molecules does not affect the photochemistry of SMA.
RESUMO
We have studied the structure and photochemistry of the formaldoxime−nitrous acid system (CH2NOH−HONO) by help of FTIR matrix isolation spectroscopy and ab initio methods. The MP2/6-311++G(2d,2p) calculations show stability of six isomeric CH2NOH···HONO complexes. The FTIR spectra evidence formation of two hydrogen bonded complexes in an argon matrix whose structures are determined by comparison of the experimental spectra with the calculated ones for the six stable complexes. In the matrix there is present the most stable cyclic complex with two O−H···N bonds; a strong bond is formed between the OH group of HONO and the N atom of CH2NOH and the weaker one between the OH group of CH2NOH and the N atom of HONO. In the other complex present in the matrix the OH group of formaldoxime is attached to the OH group of HONO forming an O−H···O bond. The irradiation of the CH2NOH···HONO complexes with the filtered output of the mercury lamp (λ > 345 nm) leads to the formation of formaldoxime nitrite, CH2NONO, and its two isomeric complexes with water. The main product is the CH2NONO···H2O complex in which water is hydrogen bonded to the N atom of the CâN group. The identity of the photoproducts is confirmed by both FTIR spectroscopy and MP2 or QCISD(full) calculations with the 6-311++G(2d,2p) basis set. The intermediate in this reaction is iminoxyl radical that is formed by abstraction of hydrogen atom from formaldoxime OH group by an OH radical originating from HONO photolysis.

The IR absorption spectra of (SF(6))(2) dimers were studied in N(2) matrixes at 11 K. Absorption bands due to SF(6) monomers and to (SF(6))(2) dimers have been identified. As a result of the resonance dipole-dipole interaction between two SF(6) subunits, the band of the triply degenerate vibration nu(3) is split into two components nu(X),(Y) and nu(Z), where Z is the axis connecting the two sulfur atoms. The main distinction between the spectra of (SF(6))(2) dimers recorded here compared to spectra in the gas phase is the splitting of the nu(X),(Y) component. A model that takes into account the influence of the matrix on the spectra of dimers is developed. The model makes it possible to successively (i) calculate the resonance spectrum of an isolated dimer in terms of the model of local modes including the resonance interactions, (ii) determine with the help of the Monte Carlo method the structure of a matrix consisting of 864 N(2) molecules and a rigid (SF(6))(2) dimer, and (iii) take into account the interactions of local dipole moments of a dimer with host particles in the approximation of dipole-induced dipole and dipole-quadrupole interactions. The calculated spectra sufficiently well reproduce the main characteristics of the experimental spectra in N(2) matrixes, in particular, the decrease of the resonance splitting upon transition from the gas phase to a matrix and the splitting of nu(X,Y) component in the nitrogen matrix.
RESUMO
We study the structure and photochemistry of the glyoxal-methanol system (G-MeOH) by means of FTIR matrix isolation spectroscopy and ab initio calculations. The FTIR spectra show that the non-hydrogen-bonded complex, G-MeOH-1, is present in an inert environment of solid argon. MP2/aug-cc-pVDZ calculations indicate that G-MeOH-1 is the most stable complex among the five optimized structures. The interaction energy partitioned according to the symmetry-adapted perturbation theory (SAPT) scheme demonstrates that the dispersion energy gives a larger contribution to the stabilization of a non-hydrogen-bonded G-MeOH-1 complex than compared to the hydrogen-bonded ones. The irradiation of G-MeOH-1 with the filtered output of a mercury lamp (lambda>370 nm) leads to its photo-conversion into the hydroxyketene-methanol complex HK-MeOH-1. The identity of HK-MeOH-1 is confirmed by both FTIR spectroscopy and MP2/aug-cc-pVDZ calculations. An experiment with deuterated methanol (CH(3)OD) evidences that hydroxyketene is formed in a photo-induced hydrogen exchange reaction between glyoxal and methanol. The pathway for the photo-conversion of G-MeOH-1 to HK-MeOH-1 is studied by a coupled-cluster method [CR-CC(2,3)]. The calculations confirm our experimental findings that the reaction proceeds via hydrogen atom exchange between the OH group of methanol and CH group of glyoxal.
RESUMO
An infrared spectroscopic and MP2/6-311++G(2d,2p) study of the complexes between N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) and nitrogen, carbon monoxide, water, ammonia trapped in solid argon matrices is reported [corrected]. The 1:1 molecular complexes have been identified in the DMF/B/Ar matrices (B=N2, CO, H2O, NH3); their structures were determined by comparison of the spectra with the results of calculations. The analysis of the experimental and theoretical data indicate that the DMF-N2, CO complexes present in the matrices are stabilized by (C=)Oâ¯N and (C=)Oâ¯C van der Waals interactions. In turn, in the DMF-H2O, NH3 complexes the (C=)Oâ¯H(OH) and (C=)Oâ¯H(NH2) hydrogen bonding is present in which the carbonyl group of DMF acts as a proton acceptor. In all systems studied the C-Hâ¯X (X=N, C, O) bonding is a second intermolecular force stabilizing the planar complexes. Some spectral features indicate that for DMF-H2O, DMF-NH3 systems the nonplanar structures with the C=Oâ¯H interaction are also present. The study demonstrated the strong sensitivity of the CH stretching wavenumber to an involvement of the C-H and/or C=O groups of DMF in an intermolecular interaction.
RESUMO
Dimerization of the keto tautomer of acetohydroxamic acid has been studied using FTIR matrix isolation spectroscopy and DFT(B3LYP)/6-31+G(d,p) calculations. Analysis of CH3CONHOH/Ar matrix spectra indicates formation of two dimers in which two intramolecular CO...HON bonds within two interacting acetohydroxamic acid molecules are retained. A chain dimer I is stabilized by the intermolecular CO...HN hydrogen bond, whereas the cyclic dimer II is stabilized by two intermolecular NH...O(H)N bonds. Twelve vibrations were identified for dimer I and six vibrations for dimer II; the observed frequency shifts show a good agreement with the calculated ones for the structures I and II. Both dimers have comparable binding energies (DeltaE(ZPE)(CP)I, II=-7.02, -6.34 kcal mol-1) being less stable than calculated structures III and IV (DeltaE(ZPE)(CP)III, IV=-9.50, -8.87 kcal mol-1) in which one or two intramolecular hydrogen bonds are disrupted. In the most stable 10-membered cyclic dimer III, two intermolecular CO...HON hydrogen bonds are formed at expense of intramolecular hydrogen bonds of the same type. The formation of the less stable (AHA)2 dimers in the studied matrixes indicates that the formation of (AHA)2 is kinetically and not thermodynamically controlled.

A combined matrix isolation FTIR and theoretical DFT/B3LYP/6-311++G(2p,2d) study of pyridoxal was performed. The calculations resulted in five stable PLHB conformers stabilized by intramolecular O-Hâ¯O bonding between phenolic OH and carbonyl C=O groups and another thirteen conformers in which OH or/and aldehyde groups are rotated by 180° around CO or/and CC bonds leading, respectively, to formation of PLO, PLA and PLOA conformers. The analysis of the spectra of the as-deposited matrix indicated that two most stable PLHB1 and PLHB2 conformers with intramolecular hydrogen bond are present in the matrix. The exposure of the PL/Ar matrix to mercury lamp radiation (λ>345 nm) induced conformational change of PLHB isomers to PLOA ones.

An infrared spectroscopic and MP2/6-311++G(2d,2p) study of hydrogen bonded complexes of formaldoxime with ammonia and hydrogen chloride trapped in solid argon matrices is reported. Both 1:1 and 1:2 complexes between formaldoxime and ammonia, hydrogen chloride have been identified in the CH2NOH/NH3/Ar, CH2NOH/HCl/Ar matrices, respectively, their structures were determined by comparison of the spectra with the results of calculations. In the 1:1 complexes present in the argon matrices the OH group of formaldoxime acts as a proton donor for ammonia and the nitrogen atom acts as a proton acceptor for hydrogen chloride. In the 1:2 complexes ammonia or hydrogen chloride dimers interact both with the OH group and the nitrogen atom of CH2NOH to form seven membered cyclic structures stabilized by three hydrogen bonds. The theoretical spectra generally agree well with the experimental ones, but they seriously underestimate the shift of the OH stretch for the 1:1 CH2NOHâ¯NH3 complex.

The 1:1, 1:2 and 2:1 formaldoxime-water complexes isolated in the argon matrices have been studied by help of FTIR spectroscopy and MP2/6-311++G(2d,2p) method. The calculations predicted the stability of the three CH(2)NOH···H(2)O isomeric complexes, three CH(2)NOH···(H(2)O)(2) ones and one (CH(2)NOH)(2)···H(2)O complex. The analysis of the experimental spectra and their comparison with theoretical ones indicated that both the 1:1 and 1:2 complexes trapped in solid argon have the most stable cyclic structures stabilized by the O-H···O and O-H···N bonds between the formaldoxime and water molecules. In the 1:2 complex formaldoxime interacts with the water dimer, one H(2)O molecule acts as a proton acceptor for the OH group of formaldoxime whereas the second H(2)O molecule acts as a proton donor toward the nitrogen atom of the formaldoxime molecule. In the (CH(2)NOH)(2)···H(2)O complex the OH group of the water molecule acts as a proton donor toward one of the oxygen atoms of the formaldoxime cyclic dimer.

The complex formed between water and tetrafluoromethane has been studied by infrared matrix isolation spectroscopy and ab initio calculations. The geometries of the CF4-H2O complexes were optimized in two steps at the MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ level of theory. The structure found at this level was reoptimized on the CP-corrected potential energy surface. The interaction energy was partitioned according to the SAPT scheme and the topological analysis of the electron density was performed. The optimized structure corresponds to the nonhydrogen bonded complex with an oxygen atom of water oriented toward the carbon atom of CF4. The infrared spectra of CF4-H2O /Ne(Ar) matrices demonstrate the presence of a well defined CF4-H2O structure in accord with theoretical prediction. Two complex vibrations were identified in the spectra of neon matrices and four vibrations were observed in the spectra of argon matrices. The available experimental data are in accord with the CP-corrected calculated data.
