Ab Initio Conformational Analysis of /-D-Xylopyranose at Pyrolysis Conditions

Bernardo Ballotta, Jacopo Lupi, Leandro Ayarde-Henríquez +1

Xylopyranose is the principal monosaccharide unit of hemicellulose, one of the three major biopolymers of lignocellulosic biomass. Understanding its decomposition mechanism is incr…

Ab Initio and Kinetic Modelling of -D-xylopyranose Under Fast Pyrolysis Conditions

Jacopo Lupi, Leandro Ayarde-Henríquez, Mark Kelly +1

Lignocellulosic biomass is an abundant renewable resource that can be upgraded to chemical and fuel products through a range of thermal conversion processes. Fast pyrolysis is a pr…

Gliding on ice in search of accurate and cost-effective computational methods for astrochemistry on grains: the puzzling case of the HCN isomerization

Carmen Baiano, Jacopo Lupi, Vincenzo Barone +1

The isomerization of hydrogen cyanide to hydrogen isocyanide on icy grain surfaces is investigated by an accurate composite method (jun-Cheap) rooted in the coupled cluster ansatz…

The junChS and junChS-F12 models: parameter-free efficient yet accurate composite schemes for energies and structures of non-covalent complexes

Jacopo Lupi, Silvia Alessandrini, Cristina Puzzarini +1

A recently developed model chemistry (denoted as junChS [Alessandrini et al J. Chem. Theory Comput. 2020, 16, 988-1006]) has been extended to the employment of explicitly-correlate…

Development and validation of a parameter-free model chemistry for the computation of reliable reaction rates

Vincenzo Barone, Jacopo Lupi, Zoi Salta +1

A recently developed model chemistry (jun-Cheap) has been slightly modified and proposed as an effective, reliable and parameter-free scheme for the computation of accurate reactio…

Methanimine as a key precursor of imines in the interstellar medium: the case of propargylimine

Jacopo Lupi, Cristina Puzzarini, Vincenzo Barone

A gas-phase formation route is proposed for the recently detected propargylimine molecule. In analogy to other imines, such as cyanomethanimine, the addition of a reactive radical…

The Role of State-of-the-Art Quantum-Chemical Calculations in Astrochemistry: Formation Route and Spectroscopy of Ethanimine as a Paradigmatic Case

Carmen Baiano, Jacopo Lupi, Nicola Tasinato +2

The gas-phase formation and spectroscopic characteristics of ethanimine have been re-investigated as a paradigmatic case illustrating the accuracy of state-of-the-art quantum-chemi…

State-of-the-Art Quantum Chemistry Meets Variable Reaction Coordinate Transition State Theory to Solve the Puzzling Case of the H2S + Cl System

Jacopo Lupi, Cristina Puzzarini, Carlo Cavallotti +1

The atmospheric reaction of HS with Cl has been reinvestigated to check if, as previously suggested, only explicit dynamical computations can lead to an accurate evaluation of…

The quest for a plausible formation route of formyl cyanide in the interstellar medium: a state-of-the-art quantum-chemical and kinetic approach

F. Tonolo, J. Lupi, C. Puzzarini +1

Interstellar complex organic molecules (iCOMs) are assumed to be mainly formed on dust-grain surfaces. However, neutral gas-phase reactions in the interstellar medium (ISM) can pla…

A twist on the reaction of the CN radical with methylamine in the interstellar medium: new hints from a state-of-the-art quantum-chemical study

C. Puzzarini, Z. Salta, N. Tasinato +3

Despite the fact that the majority of current models assume that interstellar complex organic molecules (iCOMs) are formed on dust-grain surfaces, there is some evidence that neutr…
