The results showed that at 300 K, the hole or electron transport capability of F or SH-substituted molecules was better obviously than that of OH or OCH3-substituted molecules, The electron transport capability of SCH3-substituted and F or SH-substituted molecules was superior to their hole transport capability, respectively. F, SH or SCH3-substituted tetrabenz[a,c,h,j]-anthracene derivative molecules can be used as electron transport materials.展开更多

Experimental study elucidates that humic acid molecular ligand with different metal elements has different abilities to accept electrons. By using density functional theory, this article selected the leonardite humic acid(LHA) organic macromolecule as ligand to study interactions between the ligand and different metals. At the same time, the calculation of binding energy, the analysis of characteristics for the complex structure and the distribution of frontier molecular orbital were also completed. On the basis of Marcus theory, the reorganization energy, matrix element and charge transport rate constant were calculated. The results show that the order of the charge transfer rates is Fe^(3+)>Cu^(2+)>Al^(3+) for different metal complexes, and are in good agreement with the experimental ones.展开更多

We firstly carried out the reaction at pH=1. The specific rate constants of the reaction, kox, are (8.1± 0.07)×10-2 and (4.3±0.1)×10-2 mol-1?L?s-1 at μ=1.0 mol?L-1 NaClO4, T=298 K for pH=1 (0.1 mol?L-1 HClO4) and 8, respectively. The activation parameters, obtained by measuring the rate constants of oxidation 283—303 K, were ?H≠=(69.0±5.6) kJ?mol-1, ?S≠=(-0.34±0.041)×102 J?mol-1?K-1 at pH=1 and ?H≠= (41.3±5.5) kJ?mol-1, ?S≠=(-1.27±0.33)×102 J?mol-1?K-1 at pH=8, respectively. The cyclic voltammetry of Fe(CN)36 -/4- shows that the oxidation is a one-electron reversible redox process with E1/2 values of 0.55 and 0.46 V vs. normal hydrogen electrode at μ=1.0 mol?L-1 LiClO4, for pH=1 and pH=8 (Tris), respectively. The kinetic results were discussed on the basis of Marcus theory.展开更多
Electron transfer reactions take place readily between 2, 2, 6, 6-tetramethylpiperidine oxoammonium ions (la,lb) and phenothiazines (2a—2g), giving corresponding nitroxides (3a,3b) and phenothiazine radical cations ...Electron transfer reactions take place readily between 2, 2, 6, 6-tetramethylpiperidine oxoammonium ions (la,lb) and phenothiazines (2a—2g), giving corresponding nitroxides (3a,3b) and phenothiazine radical cations (4a—4g). The rate constants for the electron self-exchange reactions between1 and3, as well as between2 and4, are determined by EPR and1HNMR line-broadening effect in acetonitrile. By application of the Marcus theory, the kinetics of the cross exchange reactions between1 and2 is studied.展开更多

The specific rate constants of the reaction, kox, are (8.1± 0.07)×10-2 and (4.3±0.1)×10-2 mol-1?L?s-1 at μ=1.0 mol?L-1 NaClO4, T=298 K for pH=1 (0.1 mol?L-1 HClO4) and 8, respectively.
