Reactions of aliphatic amines with ozone: Kinetics and mechanisms

Aliphatic amines are common constituents in micropollutants and dissolved organic matter and present in elevated concentrations in wastewater-impacted source waters. Due to high reactivity, reactions of aliphatic amines with ozone are likely to occur durin ...

Gas-Phase Ozone Reactions with a Structurally Diverse Set of Molecules: Barrier Heights and Reaction Energies Evaluated by Coupled Cluster and Density Functional Theory Calculations

Jeremy Samuel Arey, Peter Rudolf Tentscher, Daniela Trogolo

Reactions with ozone transform organic and inorganic molecules in water treatment systems as well as in atmospheric chemistry, either in the aqueous phase, at gas/particle interfaces, or in the gas phase. Computed thermokinetic data can be used to estimate ...

Non-equilibrium dynamics of di-platinum complexes and molecular dyes in solution: Insights from transient absorption and two-dimensional Fourier transform spectroscopy

Lars-Hendrik Mewes

Unraveling the interplay between electronic- and vibrational degrees of freedom on the earliest time scales of physical, chemical and biological processes is crucial to gaining insight into the mechanisms that govern the world around us, since it is during ...

Revising the common understanding of metamagnetism in the molecule-based bisdithiazolyl BDTMe compound

Sergio Vela Llausi

The BDTMe molecule-based material is the first example of a thiazyl radical to exhibit metamagnetic behavior. Contrary to the common idea that metamagnetism occurs in low-dimensional systems, it is found that BDTMe magnetic topology consists of a complex 3 ...

Photoinduced disinfection in sunlit natural waters: Measurement of the second order inactivation rate constants between E-coli and photogenerated transient species

César Pulgarin, Stefanos Giannakis

This work uncovers the implications of the estimation of exogenous inactivation rates for E. coli after the initial lag phase, and presents a strategy for the determination of the second-order inactivation rate constants (k2nd) of these bacteria with relev ...

Photophysical Heavy-Atom Effect in Iodinated Metallocorroles: Spin-Orbit Coupling and Density of States

Majed Chergui, Enrico Pomarico, Marine Eva Fedora Bouduban

Excited-state dynamics and electronic structures of Al and Ga corrole complexes were studied as a function of the number of beta-pyrrole iodine substituents. Using spectrally broad-band femtosecond-resolved fluorescence upconversion, we determined the kine ...

Conservation of vibrational coherence in ultrafast electronic relaxation: The case of diplatinum complexes in solution

Majed Chergui, Gerald Auböck, Dominik Kinschel, Roberto Monni

We report the results of ultrafast transient absorption studies of tetrakis(l-pyrophosphito) diplatinate(II), Pt-2(mu-P(2)O(5)H2)(4) (Pt(pop)) and its perfluoroborated derivative Pt-2(mu-P2O5(BF2)(4) (Pt(pop-BF2)) in water and acetonitrile upon e ...

FeOx magnetization enhancing E-coli inactivation by orders of magnitude on Ag-TiO2 nanotubes under sunlight

César Pulgarin, Juan Kiwi, Arnaud Magrez, Sami Rtimi, Ivica Zivkovic, Stefanos Giannakis

Drastic bacterial enhancement was observed when the Ag(3%)-TiO2 nanotubes were modified with FeOx (3%) magnetic oxide. On bare TiO2- nanotubes a reduction of 0.21og(10)CFU was observed within one hour under simulated low intensity solar light. Under simila ...

Fluorescence Quenching in BODIPY Dyes: the Role of Intramolecular Interactions and Charge Transfer

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Antonio Prlj, Laurent Alexis Clément Vannay

The fluorescence properties of the BODIPY dye and its two meso-substituted derivatives, tert-butyl- and phenyl-BODIPY, are rationalized. The non emissive behavior of the latter two are attributed to the energetically accessible low-lying conical intersecti ...

A pulse sequence for singlet to heteronuclear magnetization transfer: S2hM

Gabriele Stevanato

We have recently demonstrated, in the context of para-hydrogen induced polarization (PHIP), the conversion of hyperpolarized proton singlet order into heteronuclear magnetisation can be efficiently achieved via a new sequence named S2hM (Singlet to heteron ...
