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 ...

Formation and reactivity of inorganic and organic chloramines and bromamines during oxidative water treatment

Jeremy Samuel Arey, Urs von Gunten, Michèle Bernadette Heeb, Daniela Trogolo

The formation and further reactions of halamines during oxidative water treatment can be relevant for water quality. In this study, we investigated the formation and reactivity of several inorganic and organic halamines (monochloramine, N-chloromethylamine ...

Equilibria and Speciation of Chloramines, Bromamines, and Bromochloramines in Water

Jeremy Samuel Arey, Daniela Trogolo

The stabilities and speciation of the halamines in water are difficult to characterize experimentally. We provide theoretical estimates of aqueous standard free energies of formation for inorganic chloramines, bromamines, and bromochloramines, based on hig ...

Reaction between propargyl radical and 1,3-butadiene to form five to seven membered rings. Theoretical study

Daniela Trogolo

Propargyl radical addition to 1,3-butadiene seems to be a promising channel to form 5-, 6-, and 7-membered rings. These are important steps in the growth of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and soot platelets. The reaction mechanism, involving 97 intermedi ...

Quantum chemical studies of reactive species in water

Daniela Trogolo

In this thesis, quantum chemical methods have been applied to elucidate the thermodynamics and the kinetics of reactions involving reactive species in water. Due to their high reactivity in water, many transient species are difficult to study by experiment ...

Molecular mechanism of NDMA formation from N,N-dimethylsulfamide during ozonation: Quantum chemical insights into a bromide-catalyzed pathway

Jeremy Samuel Arey, Brijesh Kumar Mishra, Urs von Gunten, Michèle Bernadette Heeb, Daniela Trogolo

During ozonation of drinking water, the fungicide metabolite NN-dimethyIsulfamide (DMS) can be transformed into a highly toxic product, N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA). We used quantum chemical computations and stopped-flow experiments to evaluate a chemical ...

Benchmark thermochemistry of chloramines, bromamines, and bromochloramines: Halogen oxidants stabilized by electron correlation

Jeremy Samuel Arey, Daniela Trogolo

Chloramines, bromamines, and bromochloramines are halogen-containing oxidants that arise from the reaction of hypohalous acids with ammonia in water. Although relevant to both water disinfection chemistry and biochemistry, these molecules are difficult to ...
