The N2O decomposition mechanism is investigated over Cu-ZSM-5 using density functional theory (DFT). Though the extended from Fe/Co-ZSM-5, results show that a different step may be rate-determining compared to Fe/Co-ZSM-5 system. In beginning, Z[Cu] as active center decomposes first and generates Z[CuO] (process 1), energy barrier of dissociation 35.18 kcal/mol. Then could decompose second generate Z[CuOO] 2), 28.07 process 2, oxygen desorb Z[CuOO], desorption 39.48 kcal/mol, which only...

Herein, a density functional theory (DFT) study was performed to investigate thoroughly the cascade reaction mechanism for hydrogenation of carbon dioxide methanol catalyzed by ruthenium pincer complex [RuH2(Me2PCH2SiMe2)2NH(CO)]. Three catalytic stages involving (stage I), formic acid II) and formaldehyde III) were studied. The calculated results show that dominant H2 activation strategy in CO2 may not be methanol-assisted activation, but formate-assisted activation. In this reaction, all...

In this paper, the mechanism of asymmetric amination a racemic alcohol with Ellman's sulfinamide and origin diastereoselectivity catalyzed by Ru-PNP pincer complex were studied using density functional theory (DFT). The involves dehydrogenation alcohol, C-N coupling, hydrogen transfer from catalyst to in situ formed imine. calculated results indicate that both imine hydrogenation are stepwise. hydride Ru is shown be chirality-determining step whole catalytic cycle. It was found mainly stems...
