Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of liquids covers a wide range of scientific disciplines, primarily in physics and chemistry. As a result of this disparate activity the links between new developments in remote fields are seldom co-ordinated into a single conference. The objective of the present meeting was to gather together people with different forms of expertise. Previous ASI meetings on the liquid state have been held over an extended period and have occurred on a three-yearly basis. The first meeting in this series was on 'Structure and Dynamics of Liquids' in 1980 and was held on the island of Corsica. The next meeting on 'Molecular liquids: Dynamics and Interactions' was held in Florence in 1983 and was followed by 'Aqueous Solutions' at the Institut d'Etudes Scientifiques de Cargese in 1986. It therefore seemed a natural choice to select Cargese for the next meeting in 1989 and to choose a topic which emphasised a particular area of liquid state studies. Due to our own involvement in collaborative research we considered that 'Hydrogen-bonded liquids' would be an appropriate topic. One of its attractions, was that there was much new material coming from widely disparate investigations and it would be a convenient time to draw together the different strands. The particular interest in water was clearly central to this topic but it was thought desirable to set this development in the wider context of other systems in which hydrogen-bonding plays a significant role.

Book Hydrogen Bonding in Mixtures of Protic Ionic Liquids

Download or read book Hydrogen Bonding in Mixtures of Protic Ionic Liquids written by Benjamin Golub and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this work, the influence of hydrogen bonds on structure and thermodynamic properties of binary mixtures of protic ionic liquids (PILs), sharing the same cation, are investigated with molecular dynamics simulation. The observed non-ideal mixing behavior can be explained with the formation of complex hydrogen-bonded clusters. With the help of a newly developed simple lattice model the clusters can be described. Furthermore, the model shows that the mixing process is enthalpy-driven, not entropy-driven as one would expect.eng

Book Theoretical Treatments of Hydrogen Bonding

Download or read book Theoretical Treatments of Hydrogen Bonding written by Dušan Hadži and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 1997-12-29 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hydrogen bonding is crucial in many chemical and biochemical reactions, as well as in determining material properties. A good insight into the theoretical methods of treating hydrogen bonding is essential for those wishing to model its effects computationally in a wide range of fields involving hydrogen bonding, as well as those wishing to extract the maximal amount of information from experimental data. Theoretical Treatments of Hydrogen Bonding presents the reader with the state of the art of the key theoretical approaches to hydrogen bonding and considers the hydrogen bond from the various aspects. The first five chapters are devoted to the methods used for treating the electronic basis of hydrogen bonding, including a consideration of the electrostatic model, density functional theory and molecular orbital methods. Later chapters consider the dynamics of hydrogen bonds with particular attention to the treatment of proton transfer; manifestations of dynamics as reflected in infrared spectra and nuclear magnetic relaxation are also considered. Hydrogen bonding in liquids and solids such as ferroelectrics are included. The book concludes with an epilogue which discusses the likely development of hydrogen bond computations in very large chemical systems. Theoretical Treatments of Hydrogen Bonding offers the reader a comprehensive view of the current theoretical approaches to hydrogen bonding. It is a valuable presentation of theoretical tools useful to those looking for the most appropriate approach for treating a particular problem involving hydrogen bonding.

Book Optical Kerr Effect Studies of Hydrogen Bonding and Phase Behavior in Aqueous Binary Mixtures

Download or read book Optical Kerr Effect Studies of Hydrogen Bonding and Phase Behavior in Aqueous Binary Mixtures written by Heather Elyse Bailey and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The behavior of molecules in condensed phases involves complex considerations to fully describe the microscopic structure and dynamics. This is particularly interesting in complex liquids with inherent heterogeneity and in binary mixtures where the competition between the interactions between similar and dissimilar species greatly affects the microstructures of the liquid. The ubiquity of aqueous binary mixtures necessitates their study, particularly because the unique properties of water often manifests anomalously in the physical properties of binary mixtures. These changes in physical properties are the result of structural changes at the molecular level. In this thesis, the dynamical results from optical heterodyne-detected optical Kerr effect (OHD-OKE) experiments are reported for a series of aqueous binary mixtures. OHD-OKE is a nonresonant pump probe technique in which the bulk orientational dynamics of a liquid are measured via the time-dependent birefringence induced in the sample by an optical pulse. The OHD-OKE setup used in this thesis has the ability to measure dynamics over seven decades of time and eight decades of signal, which is an incredible window for a single experimental technique. Ultrafast pulses, which are necessary to have sufficient resolution, are generated by a Ti:Sapphire oscillator/regenerative amplifier. Multiple techniques including heterodyne detection and phase cycling are used to improve signal to noise, particularly at long time when signals are small. The theory behind OHD-OKE and a description of the experimental setup are given here. In addition to dynamical information, microstructural changes can be extracted from OHD-OKE data using the Debye Stokes Einstein (DSE) equation. The specific structures can be elucidated using complementary techniques. The remainder of the thesis is devoted to the aqueous binary mixtures of interest and the results from OHD-OKE and complementary techniques. First, a protic ionic liquid is compared to its aprotic analogue in order to better understand the role of hydrogen bonding in ionic liquids at various hydration levels. This work is further expanded to ionic liquids of varying chain lengths and anions in order to provide a deeper understanding of hydrophilicity and water saturation in ionic liquids. Finally, the anomalous phase behavior of the nicotine/water binary system is studied in order to elucidate the dynamics and microstructures associated with the lower critical solution temperature.

Book Visualization of Hydrogen Bond Dynamics

Download or read book Visualization of Hydrogen Bond Dynamics written by Takashi Kumagai and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-10-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The hydrogen bond represents an important interaction between molecules, and the dynamics of hydrogen bonds in water create an ever-present question associated with the process of chemical and biological reactions. In spite of numerous studies, the process remains poorly understood at the microscopic level because hydrogen-bond dynamics, such as bond rearrangements and hydrogen/proton transfer reactions, are extremely difficult to probe. Those studies have been carried out by means of spectroscopic methods where the signal stems from the ensemble of a system and the hydrogen-bond dynamics were inferred indirectly. This book addresses the direct imaging of hydrogen-bond dynamics within water-based model systems assembled on a metal surface, using a scanning tunneling microscope (STM). The dynamics of individual hydrogen bonds in water clusters, hydroxyl clusters, and water-hydroxyl complexes are investigated in conjunction with density functional theory. In these model systems, quantum dynamics of hydrogen bonds, such as tunneling and zero-point nuclear motion, are observed in real space. Most notably, hydrogen atom relay reactions, which are frequently invoked across many fields of chemistry, are visualized and controlled by STM. This work presents a means of studying hydrogen-bond dynamics at the single-molecule level, providing an important contribution to wide fields beyond surface chemistry.

Book Microscopic Organization and Dynamics in Structured Liquids

Download or read book Microscopic Organization and Dynamics in Structured Liquids written by James Tyler Cosby and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An increasing number of liquids of both natural and technological importance are known to exhibit spatial and dynamic heterogeneity at the mesoscale due to specific non-covalent intermolecular interactions such as hydrogen-bonding, coulombic interactions, or solvophobic exclusion. However, there is little understanding as to how the organization and dynamics at the mesoscale influence the physical and chemical properties of the bulk liquids. In this dissertation, two classes of materials, ionic liquids and imidazoles, are selected as case studies and investigated by a combination of experimental techniques which provide insight into the interplay of mesoscale organization, dynamics, and physicochemical properties. The mesoscale organization in these materials originates primarily from two different types of non-covalent interactions. For ionic liquids (ILs), this interaction is the solvophobic exclusion of extended aliphatic chains substituted on the cation from regions occupied by the polar ions. Here, new experimental signatures of mesoscale solvophobic aggregate dynamics are identified in the dielectric and dynamic-mechanical spectra. Using these signatures, it is found for instance, in phosphonium-based ionic liquids, that the formation of long-lived aggregates depends not only on the volume fraction of aliphatic groups, but also on the formation of a well-defined polar phase through strong coulombic interactions of the cation and anion charge centers. Finally, the ability to tune physicochemical properties, notably the static dielectric permittivity, by composition-dependent control of mesoscale aggregate morphology and dynamics in binary IL mixtures, is demonstrated. In imidazoles, the organization is driven by intermolecular hydrogen-bonds resulting in supramolecular chains of imidazole molecules. The existence of these chains is commonly believed to promote proton conductivity by a fast intermolecular proton transfer mechanism. A detailed analysis of neat 2-ethyl-4-methylimidazole and mixtures with minute amounts of levulinic acid and butyramide reveal an inverse relation between the average hydrogen-bonded chain length and conductivity with no direct correlation between the static dielectric permittivity and proton conductivity. In addition, an unusual temperature dependence of static dielectric permittivity is attributed to the formation of antiparallel alignment of neighboring hydrogen-bonded chains, a degree of previously unrecognized mesoscale organization.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The almost universal presence of water in our everyday lives and the very `common' nature of its presence and properties possibly deflects attention from the fact that it has a number of very unusual characteristics which, furthermore, are found to be extremely sensitive to physical parameters, chemical environment and other influences. Hydrogen-bonding effects, too, are not restricted to water, so it is necessary to investigate other systems as well, in order to understand the characteristics in a wider context. Hydrogen Bond Networks reflects the diversity and relevance of water in subjects ranging from the fundamentals of condensed matter physics, through aspects of chemical reactivity to structure and function in biological systems.
