Abstract
The equilibrium geometric parameters and the energetic and spectroscopic characteristics of low lying conformers for series of polyhydroxyl molecules and ions in which sodium atoms are successively substituted for the hydroxyl hydrogen atoms have been calculated by the density functional theory B3LYP method with the 6−31G* and 6−311+G** basis sets. The glucose derivatives [Glu − nH + nNa] and [Glu − nH + (n + 1)Na]+ (n = 1−5) and the 2,4,6-trihydroxyacetophenone derivatives [THAP − nH + nNa] and [THAP − nH + (n + 1)Na]+ (n = 1−4) have been considered. The affinities of the neutral [Glu − nH + nNa] and [THAP − nH + nNa] molecules for adding Na+ cations, as well as the energies of successive substitution of Na atoms for H atoms in the Glu and THAP molecules and the Glu+ and THAP+ ions in their reaction with sodium acetate molecules, have been estimated. Computations show that the first substitution of Na for H in ions is slightly exothermic and, presumably, can spontaneously occur under common conditions. Further substitutions are endothermic, but the required energy inputs are small. Therefore, successive substitutions for two, three, or more hydroxyl H atoms in the molecules and ions under consideration are possible at relatively low energy inputs. The computation results and conclusions are compared with the MALDI TOF mass spectral data for Na-substituted glucose and 2,4,6-trihydroxyacetophenone derivatives in the [glucose + CH3COONa + THAP] system where, in addition to common Glu · Na+ and THAP · Na+ ion-molecular complexes, multiply substituted positive ions of the [Glu − nH + (n + 1)Na]+ (n = 1−4) and [THAP − nH + (n + 1)Na]+ (n = 1−3) type have been identified.
