A Monte Carlo Revisiting of N-Methylformamide and Acetone
نویسندگان
چکیده
Os líquidos N-metilformamida e acetona foram revisitados através de simulações Monte Carlo feitas no ensemble NPT, a 1 atm e 25 °C. As moléculas são rígidas com todos os átomos explicitados e o potencial intermolecular utilizado é o clássico 6-12 Lennard-Jones mais Coulomb. Os g(r)’s teóricos dos dois líquidos foram comparados com aqueles obtidos através de difratometria de nêutrons e simulação de refinamento de estrutura. Os resultados indicam a existência de ligações de hidrogênio determinando a estrutura da N-metilformamida, enquanto que na acetona as correlações são orientadas pelo momento dipolar. A estrutura do líquido N-metilformamida é guiada por um dímero preponderante, no qual as moléculas estão posicionadas de maneira que o ângulo entre os vetores de dipolo é 73°, enquanto que no líquido acetona, que é muito menos organizado, a orientação dos dipolos das moléculas muda de antiparalela a curtas distâncias para mais paralela à medida que a distância aumenta.

Monte Carlo Simulation of Methanol Diffusion in Critical Media
The diffusion behavior of methanol in different critical media (n-pentane, n-hexane, n-heptane and acetone) was investigated by the Monte Carlo (MC) method. From the simulation results, the diffusion constant of methanol molecule in the critical n-hexane is much larger than those in n-pentane, n-heptane and acetone. By analyzing the microscopic configurations of the critical mixtures, it is fou...

The structure of liquid N-methylformamide (NMF) has been investigated using synchrotron radiation at 77 and 95 keV. The use of high energy photons has several advantages, in this case especially the large accessible momentum transfer range, the low absorption and the direct comparability with neutron diffraction. The range of momentum transfer covered is 0.6 Å < Q <24.0 Å. Neutron diffraction d...
