Abstract
Molecular interactions in energetic materials form the key not only to the "structure stability, energy storage, ignition, and detonation" dynamics but also to the sensitivity to the loading of perturbation and the power intensity of radiation for the energetic substance, with the nature of the interactions remaining elusive. With the aid of perturbative Raman spectroscopy and the pressure-resolved density functional theory, we uncovered that the H-N bond of the intermolecular O:H-N bonds for LLM-105 shares the same negative compressibility and thermal expansivity of the H-O bond for the coupling O:H-O bond of water [Phys. Rep. 2023, 998, 1-68]. In contrast, the dangling H-N bond vibrating at a 3440 cm-1 high frequency does otherwise due to the absence of coupling interaction and the undercoordination-driven bond contraction. These findings should deepen our insight into interactions involving electron lone pairs and offer an efficient means for discriminating the performance of individual bonds.

3D Characterization of the Molecular Neighborhood of •OH Radical in High Temperature Water by MD Simulation and Voronoi Polyhedra. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24043294. [PMID: 36834704 PMCID: PMC9963584 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24043294] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/13/2023] [Revised: 01/27/2023] [Accepted: 02/03/2023] [Indexed: 02/10/2023] Open
Abstract
Understanding the properties of the •OH radical in aqueous environments is essential for biochemistry, atmospheric chemistry, and the development of green chemistry technologies. In particular, the technological applications involve knowledge of microsolvation of the •OH radical in high temperature water. In this study, the classical molecular dynamics (MD) simulation and the technique based on the construction of Voronoi polyhedra were used to provide 3D characteristics of the molecular vicinity of the aqueous hydroxyl radical (•OHaq). The statistical distribution functions of metric and topological features of solvation shells represented by the constructed Voronoi polyhedra are reported for several thermodynamic states of water, including the pressurized high-temperature liquid and supercritical fluid. Calculations showed a decisive influence of the water density on the geometrical properties of the •OH solvation shell in the sub- and supercritical region: with the decreasing density, the span and asymmetry of the solvation shell increase. We also showed that the 1D analysis based on the oxygen-oxygen radial distribution functions (RDFs) overestimates the solvation number of •OH and insufficiently reflects the influence of transformations in the hydrogen-bonded network of water on the structure of the solvation shell.

Abstract
Despite a great deal of effort spanning for decades, it remains yet puzzling concerning how alcohol molecules functionalize the hydrogen bond (H-bond) networks of water. We employed an isotopic substitution method (using alcohol-heavy water system) to avoid spectral overlap between the alcohol hydroxyl groups and water hydrogen bonds. We showed spectrometrically that under the strong pulse laser, the low mixing ratio (VA < 20%) of alcohol can strengthen the H-bond network structure of D2O through :ÖC2H6↔ D2Ö: compression. But when VA > 20%, H-bond network of D2O will deform via the self-association between alcohol molecules. Our experiments not only reveal the H-bond kinetics of heavy water-alcohol interactions but also provide important reference for understanding the distinctive properties of H-bond in water-organic system.

Perturbative vibration of the coupled hydrogen-bond (O:H-O) in water. Adv Colloid Interface Sci 2022; 310:102809.

Abstract
Perturbation Raman spectroscopy has underscored the hydrogen bond (O:H-O or HB) cooperativity and polarizability (HBCP) for water, which offers a proper parameter space for the performance of the HB and electrons in the energy-space-time domains. The OO repulsive coupling drives the O:H-O segmental length and energy to relax cooperatively upon perturbation. Mechanical compression shortens and stiffens the O:H nonbond while lengthens and softens the HO bond associated with polarization. However, electrification by an electric field or charge injection, or molecular undercoordination at a surface, relaxes the O:H-O in a contrasting way to the compression with derivation of the supersolid phase that is viscoelastic, less dense, thermally diffusive, and mechanically and thermally more stable. The HO bond exhibits negative thermal expansivity in the liquid and the ice-I phase while its length responds in proportional to temperature in the quasisolid phase. The O:H-O relaxation modifies the mass densities, phase boundaries, critical temperatures and the polarization endows the slipperiness of ice and superfluidity of water at the nanometer scale. Protons injection by acid solvation creates the H↔H anti-HB and introduction of electron lone pairs derives the O:⇔:O super-HB into the solutions of base or H2O2 hydrogen-peroxide. The repulsive H↔H and O:⇔:O interactions lengthen the solvent HO bond while the solute HO bond contracts because its bond order loss. Differential phonon spectroscopy quantifies the abundance, structure order, and stiffness of the bonds transiting from the mode of pristine water to the perturbed states. The HBCP and the perturbative spectroscopy have enabled the dynamic potentials for the relaxing O:H-O bond. Findings not only amplified the power of the Raman spectroscopy but also substantiated the understanding of anomalies of water subjecting to perturbation.

Abstract
We demonstrate the utility of basic chemical principles like the "|Δμ| big is good" (DMB) rule for the study of solvation interactions between distinct solutes such as ions and solvents. The corresponding approach allows us to define relevant criteria for maximum solvation energies of ion pairs in different solvents in terms of electronegativities and chemical hardnesses. Our findings reveal that the DMB principle culminates into the strong and weak acids and bases concept as recently derived for specific ion effects in various solvents. The further application of the DMB approach highlights a similar condition for the chemical hardnesses with a reminiscence to the hard/soft acids and bases principle. Comparable conclusions can also be drawn with regard to the change of the solvent. We show that favorable solvent interactions are mainly driven by low chemical hardnesses as well as high electronegativity differences between the ions and the solvent. Our findings highlight that solvation interactions are governed by basic chemical principles, which demonstrates the close similarity between solvation mechanisms and chemical reactions.

Abstract
Deep engineering of liquid water by charge and impurity injection, charged support, current flow, hydrophobic confinement, or applying a directional field has becoming increasingly important to the mankind toward overcoming energy and environment crisis. One can mediate the processes or temperatures of molecular evaporation for clean water harvesting, HO bond dissociation for H2 fuel generation, solidification for living-organism cryopreservation, structure stiffening for bioengineering, etc., with mechanisms being still puzzling. We show that the framework of "hydrogen bonding and electronic dynamics" has substantiated the progress in the fundamental issues and the aimed engineering. The segmental disparity of the coupled hydrogen bond (O:HO or HB with ":" being lone pair of oxygen) resolves their specific-heat curves and turns out a quasisolid phase (QS, bound at -15 and 4 °C). Electrification shows dual functionality that not only aligns, orders, polarizes water molecules but also stretches the O:HO bond. The O:HO segmental cooperative relaxation and polarization shift the QS boundary through Einstein's relation, ΔΘDx ∝ Δωx, resulting in a gel-like, viscoelastic, and stable supersolid phase with raised melting point Tm and lowered temperatures for vaporization TV and ice nucleation TN. The supersolidity and electro structure ordering provide additional forces to reinforce Armstrong's water bridge. QS dispersion and the secondary effect of electrification such as compression define the TN for Dufour's electro-freezing. The TV depression, surface stress disruption, and electrostatic attraction raise Asakawa's molecular evaporability. Composition of opposite, compatible fields eases the HO dissociation and soil wetting. Progress evidences not only the essentiality of the coupled O:HO bond theory but also the feasibility of engineering water and solutions by programmed electrification.

Abstract
Water dissolves salt into ions and then hydrates the ions to form an aqueous solution. Hydration of ions deforms the hydrogen bonding network and triggers the solution with what the pure water never shows such as conductivity, molecular diffusivity, thermal stability, surface stress, solubility, and viscosity, having enormous impact to many branches in biochemistry, chemistry, physics, and energy and environmental industry sectors. However, regulations for the solute-solute-solvent interactions are still open for exploration. From the perspective of the screened ionic polarization and O:H-O bond relaxation, this treatise features the recent progress and a perspective in understanding the hydration dynamics of Hofmeister ions in the typical YI, NaX, ZX2, and NaT salt solutions (Y = Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs; X = F, Cl, Br, I; Z = Mg, Ca, Ba, Sr; T = ClO4, NO3, HSO4, SCN). Phonon spectrometric analysis turned out the f(C) number fraction of bonds transition from the mode of deionized water to the hydrating. The linear f(C) ∝ C form features the invariant hydration volume of small cations that are fully-screened by their hydration H2O dipoles. The nonlinear f(C) ∝ 1 - exp.(-C/C0) form describes that the number insufficiency of the ordered hydrating H2O dipoles partially screens the anions. Molecular anions show stronger yet shorter electric field of dipoles. The screened ionic polarization, inter-solute interaction, and O:H-O bond transition unify the solution conductivity, surface stress, viscosity, and critical energies for phase transition.
