Abstract
Acid-base reactions are ubiquitous in solution chemistry, as well as in electrochemistry. However, macroscopic concepts derived in solutions, such as pKa and pH, differ significantly at electrified metal-aqueous interfaces due to specific solvation and applied voltage. Here, we measure the pKa values of an amino acid, glycine, at a gold/water interface under a varying applied voltage by means of spectroscopic titration. With the help of simulations, we propose a general model to understand potential-dependent shifts in pKa values in terms of local hydrophobicity and electric fields. These parameters can be tuned by adjusting the metal surface and applied voltage, respectively, offering promising, but still unexplored, paths to regulate reactivity. Our results change the focus with respect to common interpretations based on, for example, apparent local pH effects and open interesting perspectives for electrochemical reaction steering.

Abstract
To assess the surface basicity constant (pK b) of aliphatic amine films, the use of a theoretical approach recently developed to evaluate the pK a of carboxylic acid monolayers on the water surface is tested. The present paper gives a new full picture of the change of acid-base properties of surfactants during their aggregation at the air/water interface. The exploited approach is simple because it does not involve the construction of thermodynamic cycles but uses the Gibbs energies of the formation and dimerization of surfactant monomers in neutral and ionized forms in the aqueous and gaseous phases. The quantum chemical semiempirical PM3 method is applied to perform calculations using a conductor-like screening model, which takes into account the aqueous phase. The calculation shows that aliphatic amines, as well as carboxylic acids, are characterized by a change of the value of the basicity/acidity constant during the film formation. The film formation of surfactants leads to a decrease in their acid-base properties, i.e., the surface pK a values of carboxylic acids and pK b values of amines increase. However, unlike carboxylic acids, there is practically no dependence of the surface pK b value on the alkyl chain length of the aliphatic amine, which is caused by almost identical contributions of one CH2 fragment to the solvation Gibbs energy of neutral and ionized monomers within the calculation error. The obtained results agree with existing experimental data.

Abstract
We have developed a method for predicting the solvation contribution to solid-liquid interfacial tension (IFT) based on density functional theory and the implicit solvent model COSMO-RS. Our method can be used to predict wetting behavior for a solid surface in contact with two liquids. We benchmarked our method against measurements of contact angle from water-in-oil on silica wafers and a range of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) with different compositions, ranging from oil-wet to water-wet. We also compared our predictions to literature data for wetting of a polydimethylsilane surface. By explicitly including deprotonation for silica surfaces and carboxylic acid SAMs, very good agreement was obtained with experimental data for nearly all surfaces. Poor agreement was found for amine-terminated SAMs, which could be the result of both method and model insufficiencies and impurities known to be present for such surfaces. Solid-liquid IFT cannot be measured directly, making predictions such as from our method all the more important.

Abstract
The production of novel composite materials, assembled using biomimetic polymers known as peptoids (N-substituted glycines) to nucleate CaCO3, can open new pathways for advanced material design. However, a better understanding of the heterogeneous CaCO3 nucleation process is a necessary first step. We determined the thermodynamic and kinetic parameters for calcite nucleation on self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of nanosheet-forming peptoid polymers and simpler, alkanethiol analogues. We used nucleation rate studies to determine the net interfacial free energy (γ net) for the peptoid-calcite interface and for SAMs terminated with carboxyl headgroups, amine headgroups, or a mix of the two. We compared the results with γ net determined from dynamic force spectroscopy (DFS) and from density functional theory (DFT), using COSMO-RS simulations. Calcite nucleation has a lower thermodynamic barrier on the peptoid surface than on carboxyl and amine SAMs. From the relationship between nucleation rate (J 0) and saturation state, we found that under low-saturation conditions, i.e. <3.3 (pH 9.0), nucleation on the peptoid substrate was faster than that on all of the model surfaces, indicating a thermodynamic drive toward heterogeneous nucleation. When they are taken together, our results indicate that nanosheet-forming peptoid monolayers can serve as an organic template for CaCO3 polymorph growth.

Abstract
It is well established that the N-nitrosoamide derived from peracetylated derivatives of N-acetyl neuraminic acid on treatment with a mixture of sodium isopropoxide and trifluoroethanol, followed by the addition of acetic acid, gives an oxidative deamination product, in which the AcN(NO)-C5 bond is replaced with a AcO-C5 bond with the retention of configuration, affording a practical synthesis of 2-keto-3-deoxy-d-glycero-d-galactononulosonic acid (KDN) derivatives. Application of other strong acids, including hydrogen fluoride, thioacetic acid, trifluoromethanesulfonic acid, and hydrogen azide, functions similarly to afford KDN derivatives functionalized at the 5-position. We describe our attempts to extend the range of useful nucleophiles employed in this oxidative deamination process to include phenols and thiophenols, resulting in the discovery of a new branch of the general reaction and the formation of a series of products resulting from substitution of the 5-acetamido group and of the 4-acetoxy group from neuraminic acid. A mechanistic rationale for the formation of these products is advanced according to which, in the absence of acids of pKa ≤ 8, the intermediate diazonium ion resulting from the elimination of acetic acid and nitrogen from the nitrosoacetamide undergoes elimination of acetic acid from the 4-position to afford a highly electrophilic alkenediazonium ion. Reversible conjugate addition of the nucleophile to the 4-position then initiates the reaction cascade leading to the ultimate products.

Abstract
The few existing surface complexation models (SCM) for the brine-oil interface have important limitations: the chemistry of each crude oil is not considered, they cannot capture the water/non-polar hydrocarbons surface charge, the interactions between Na+ and the acid sites are not included, and the equilibrium constants for the adsorption reactions are not validated against experimental data. We address the aforementioned constraints by proposing an improved diffuse-layer SCM for the oil-brine interface. The new model accounts for the chemistry of crude oils by considering surface sites linearly dependent on the TAN (total acid number) and TBN (total base number). We define weak sites to account for the negative surface charge observed for non-polar hydrocarbons in water. We optimize the parameters of our model by fitting the model to reported zeta potential measurements of oil in aqueous solutions. When we validate the optimized model against different experimental data sets, it generally shows a good performance in predicting the surface charge of oil in different brines with different pHs. We show that the acid and base numbers are only useful as a qualitative estimation of the distribution of polar groups at the oil surface, and more sophisticated analysis is necessary to quantify the chemistry of the oil-brine interface.

Abstract
On the basis of dynamic interfacial tension measurements, Ca2+ has been shown specifically to interact with naphthenic acid (NA) at the n-heptane/water interface, consistent with NA adsorption followed by interfacial complexation and formation of a more ordered interfacial film. Optimum concentrations of Ca2+ and NA have been found to yield lower, time-dependent interfacial tensions, not evident for Mg2+ and Sr2+ or for several alkali metal ions studied. The results reflect the specific hydration and coordination chemistry of Ca2+ seen in biology. Owing to the ubiquitous presence of Ca2+ in oilfield waters, this finding has potential relevance to the surface chemistry underlying crude oil recovery. For example, “locking” acidic components at water/oil interfaces may be important for crude oil emulsion stability, or in bonding bulk oil to mineral surfaces through an aqueous phase, potentially relevant for carbonate reservoirs. The relevance of the present results to low salinity waterflooding as an enhanced crude oil recovery technique is also discussed.

Abstract
Interactions between mineral surfaces and organic molecules are fundamental to life processes. The presence of cations in natural environments can change the behavior of organic compounds and thus alter the mineral-organic interfaces. We investigated the influence of Na+, Mg2+, Ca2+, Sr2+, and Ba2+ on the interaction between two models, self-assembled monolayers, that were tailored to have hydrophobic -CH3 or hydrophilic -COO(H) terminations. Atomic force microscopy in chemical force mapping mode, where the tips were functionalized with the same terminations, was used to measure adhesion forces between the tip and substrate surfaces, to gather fundamental information about the role of these cations in the behavior of organic compounds and the surfaces where they adsorb. Adhesion force between hydrophobic surfaces in 0.5 M NaCl solutions that contained 0.012 M divalent cations did not change, regardless of the ionic potential, that is, the charge per unit radius, of the cation. For systems where one or the other surface was functionalized with carboxylate, -COO(H), mostly in its deprotonated form, -COO-, a reproducible change in the adhesion force was observed for each of the ions. The trend of increasing adhesion force followed the pattern: Na+ ≈ Mg2+ < Sr2+ < Ca2+ < Ba2+, suggesting that ionic potential, thus hydrated radius, controls the interaction. The presence of a -CH3 surface in the asymmetric system leads to lower adhesion forces than in the hydrophilic system, whereas the ionic trend remains the same. Although specific ion effects are felt in both systems, the lower adhesion force in the asymmetric system, compared with the hydrophilic system, implies that the -CH3 surface plays an important role.

Abstract
An understanding of the mechanisms that control the adsorption of organic molecules on clay minerals is of interest in several branches of science and industry. Oil production using low salinity injection fluids can increase yields by as much as 40% over standard injection with seawater or formation water. The mechanism responsible for the low salinity response is still debated, but one hypothesis is a change in pore surface wettability. Organic contamination in soil and drinking water aquifers is a challenge for municipal water suppliers and for agriculture. A better understanding is needed for how mineral species, solution composition and pH affect the desorption of low molecular weight organic ligands from clay minerals and consequently their wettability. We used X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy under cryogenic conditions to investigate the in situ composition in the mineral-solution interface region in a series of experiments with a range of pH and ion concentrations. We demonstrate that both chlorite and kaolinite release organic molecules under conditions relevant for low salinity water flooding. This release increases with a higher solution pH but is only slightly affected by the character of the organic ligand. This is consistent with the observation that low salinity enhanced oil recovery correlates with the presence of chlorite and kaolinite. Our results indicate that the pore surface charge and salinity of formation water and injection fluids are key parameters in determining the low salinity response. In general, our results imply that clay mineral surface charge influences the composition in the interface through an affinity for organic molecules.

Abstract
The interfacial free energy of a solid, which determines its adsorption properties, depends on interactions between the surface and the fluid. A change in surface composition can completely change the behavior of the solid. Decades of work have explored adsorption and its effects at solid-fluid interfaces from the macroscopic perspective and using molecular modeling, so the concept of the electric double layer (EDL) is well established in the community. However, direct, molecular level, experimental observations of the composition within the interface region, and its change with time and conditions, are not abundant. We used cryogenic X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (cryoXPS) to observe the composition in the clay mineral-solution interface region as a function of bulk solution composition, on illite and chlorite in MgCl2 and CaCl2 electrolytes, over a range of concentrations (1-125 mM), in situ, on vitrified samples. These samples were prepared from very thin smears of centrifuged wet paste that were instantaneously chilled to liquid N2 temperature. They preserved the adsorbed solution in its amorphous state, maintaining the location of the ions and water with respect to the solid, without the disruption that occurs during drying or the rearrangement that results as water crystallizes during freezing. With decreasing ionic strength, we could directly monitor the loss of negative charge in the interface region, producing an anion deficiency, as predicted by theory. The Cl-/Me2+ ratio dropped below 1 for chlorite at 12-25 mM MeCl2 and for illite at 75-100 mM. In addition to better understanding of clay mineral behavior in solution, this work demonstrates that only those clay minerals where surface charge density is the same or lower than that for chlorite contribute to a low salinity enhanced oil recovery response (LS EOR). This explains many of the contradictory results from studies about the role of clay minerals in LS EOR.

Abstract
Separation of toxic organic pollutants from industrial effluents is a great environmental challenge. Herein, an acid-base engineered foam is employed for separation of micro-oil droplets from an aqueous solution. In acidic or basic environments, acid-base polymers acquire surface charge due to protonation or dissociation of surface active functional groups. This property is invoked to adsorb crude oil microdroplets from water using polyester polyurethane (PESPU) foam. The physicochemical surface properties of the foam were characterized using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, inverse gas chromatography, electrokinetic analysis, and micro-computed tomography. Using the surface charge of the foam and oil droplets, the solution pH (5.6) for maximum separation efficacy was predicted. This optimal pH was verified through underwater wetting behavior and adsorption experiments. The droplet adsorption onto the foam was governed by physisorption, and the driving forces were attributed to electrostatic attraction and Lifshitz-van der Waals forces. The foam was regenerated and reused multiple times by simple compression. The lowest trace oil content in the retentate was 3.6 mg L-1, and all oil droplets larger than 140 nm were removed. This work lays the foundation for the development of a new class of engineered foam adsorbents with the potential to revolutionize water treatment technologies.

Abstract
The interaction of benzoic acid and benzoate with model membrane systems was characterized to understand the molecular interactions of the two forms of a simple aromatic acid with the components of the membrane. The microemulsion system based on bis(2-ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate (AOT) allowed determination of the molecular positioning using 1D NMR and 2D NMR spectroscopic methods. Benzoic acid and benzoate were both found to penetrate the membrane/water interfaces; however, the benzoic acid was able to penetrate much deeper and thus is more readily able to traverse a membrane. The Langmuir monolayer model system, using dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine, was used as a generic membrane lipid for a cell. Compression isotherms of monolayers demonstrated a pH dependent interaction with a lipid monolayer and confirming the pH dependent observations shown in the reverse micellar model system. These studies provide an explanation for the antimicrobial activity of benzoic acid while benzoate is inactive. Furthermore, these studies form the framework upon which we are investigating the mode of bacterial uptake of pyrazinoic acid, the active form of pyrazinamide, a front line drug used to combat tuberculosis.

Abstract
Using density functional theory and geochemical speciation modelling, we predicted how solid-fluid interfacial energy is changed, when divalent cations substitute into a calcite surface. The effect on wettability can be dramatic. Trace metal uptake can impact organic compound adsorption, with effects for example, on the ability of organisms to control crystal growth and our ability to predict the wettability of pore surfaces. Wettability influences how easily an organic phase can be removed from a surface, either organic compounds from contaminated soil or crude oil from a reservoir. In our simulations, transition metals substituted exothermically into calcite and more favourably into sites at the surface than in the bulk, meaning that surface properties are more strongly affected than results from bulk experiments imply. As a result of divalent cation substitution, calcite-fluid interfacial energy is significantly altered, enough to change macroscopic contact angle by tens of degrees. Substitution of Sr, Ba and Pb makes surfaces more hydrophobic. With substitution of Mg and the transition metals, calcite becomes more hydrophilic, weakening organic compound adsorption. For biomineralisation, this provides a switch for turning on and off the activity of organic crystal growth inhibitors, thereby controlling the shape of the associated mineral phase.

Abstract
Unconventional reservoirs such as hydrocarbon-bearing shale formations and ultratight carbonates generate a large fraction of oil and gas production in North America. The characteristic feature of these reservoirs is their nanoscale porosity that provides significant surface areas between the pore walls and the occupying fluids. To better assess hydrocarbon recovery from these formations, it is crucial to develop an improved insight into the effects of wall-fluid interactions on the interfacial phenomena in these nanoscale confinements. One of the important properties that controls the displacement of fluids inside the pores is the threshold capillary pressure. In this study, we present the results of an integrated series of large-scale molecular dynamics (MD) simulations performed to investigate the effects of wall-fluid interactions on the threshold capillary pressures of oil-water/brine displacements in a calcite nanopore with a square cross section. Fully atomistic models are utilized to represent crude oil, brine, and calcite in order to accommodate electrostatic interactions and H-bonding between the polar molecules and the calcite surface. To this end, we create mixtures of various polar and nonpolar organic molecules to better represent the crude oil. The interfacial tension between oil and water/brine and their contact angle on calcite surface are simulated. We study the effects of oil composition, water salinity, and temperature and pressure conditions on these properties. The threshold capillary pressure values are also obtained from the MD simulations for the calcite nanopore. We then compare the MD results against those generated using the Mayer-Stowe-Princen (MSP) method and explain the differences.

Abstract
Silicone polymers, with their high flexibility, lie in a monolayer at the air-water interface as they are compressed until a critical pressure is reached, at which point multilayers are formed. Surface pressure measurements demonstrate that, in contrast, silicones that are end-modified with polar groups take up lower surface areas under compression because the polar groups submerge into the water phase. Boronic acids have the ability to undergo coordination with Lewis bases. As part of a program to examine the surface properties of boronic acids, we have prepared boronic acid-modified silicones (SiBAs) and examined them at the air-water interface to better understand if they behave like other end-functional silicones. Monolayers of silicones, aminopropylsilicones, and SiBAs were characterized at the air-water interface as a function of end functionalization and silicone chain length. Brewster angle and atomic force microscopies confirm domain formation and similar film morphologies for both functionalized and non-functionalized silicone chains. There is a critical surface pressure (10 mN m(-1)) independent of chain length that corresponds to a first-order phase transition. Below this transition, the film appears to be a homogeneous monolayer, whose thickness is independent of the chain length. Ellipsometry at the air-water interface indicates that the boronic acid functionality leads to a significant increase of film thickness at low molecular areas that is not seen for non-functionalized silicone chains. What differentiates the boronic acids from simple silicones or other end-functionalized silicones, in particular, is the larger area occupied by the headgroup when under compression compared to other or non-end-functionalized silicones, which suggests an in-plane rather than submerged orientation that may be driven by boronic acid self-complexation.

Abstract
Core flood and field tests have demonstrated that decreasing injection water salinity increases oil recovery from sandstone reservoirs. However, the microscopic mechanism behind the effect is still under debate. One hypothesis is that as salinity decreases, expansion of the electrical double layer decreases attraction between organic molecules and pore surfaces. We have developed a method that uses atomic force microscopy (AFM) in chemical force mapping (CFM) mode to explore the relationship between wettability and salinity. We functionalised AFM tips with alkanes and used them to represent tiny nonpolar oil droplets. In repeated measurements, we brought our “oil” close to the surface of sand grains taken from core plugs and we measured the adhesion between the tip and sample. Adhesion was constant in high salinity solutions but below a threshold of 5,000 to 8,000 ppm, adhesion decreased as salinity decreased, rendering the surface less oil wet. The effect was consistent, reproducible and reversible. The threshold for the onset of low salinity response fits remarkably well with observations from core plug experiments and field tests. The results demonstrate that the electric double layer force always contributes at least in part to the low salinity effect, decreasing oil wettability when salinity is low.

Abstract
A new model based on the quantum chemical approach is proposed to describe structural and thermodynamic parameters of clusterization for substituted alkanes at the air/liquid and liquid/liquid interfaces. The new model by the authors, unlike the previous one, proposes an explicit account of the liquid phase (phases) influence on the parameters of monomers, clusters and monolayers of substituted alkanes at the regarded interface. The calculations were carried out in the frameworks of the quantum chemical semiempirical PM3 method (Mopac 2012), using the COSMO procedure. The new model was tested in the calculations of the clusterization parameters of fatty alcohols under the standard conditions at the air/water interface. The enthalpy, Gibbs' energy and absolute entropy of formation for alcohol monomers alongside with clusterization parameters for the cluster series including the monolayer at air/water interface were calculated. In our calculations the sinkage of monomers, molecules in clusters and monolayers was varied from 1 up to 5 methylene groups. Thermodynamic parameters calculated using the proposed model for the alcohol monolayers are in a good agreement with the corresponding experimental data. However, the proposed model cannot define the most energetically preferable immersion of the monolayer molecules in the water phase.
