Abstract
Mixtures of methanol and amorphous solid water (ASW) ices are observed in the interstellar medium (ISM), where they are subject to irradiation by UV photons and bombardment by charged particles. The charged particles, if at high enough density, induce a local electric field in the ice film that potentially affects the photochemistry of these ices. When CD3OD@ASW ices grown at 38 K on a Ru(0001) substrate are irradiated by 193 nm (6.4 eV) photons, products such as HD, D2, CO, and CO2 are formed in large abundances relative to the initial amount of CD3OD. Other molecules such as D2O, CD4, acetaldehyde, and ethanol and/or dimethyl ether are also observed, but in smaller relative abundances. The reactivity cross sections range from (2.6 ± 0.3) × 10-21 to (3.8 ± 0.3) × 10-25 cm2/photon. The main products are formed through two competing mechanisms: direct photodissociation of methanol and water and dissociative electron attachment (DEA) by photoelectrons ejected from the Ru(0001) substrate. An electric field of 2 × 108 V/m generated within the ASW film during Ne+ ions bombardment is apparently not strong enough to affect the relative abundances (selectivity) of the photochemical products observed in this study.

Abstract
The matrix-isolated infrared spectrum of a hydrogen cyanide-methyl chloride complex was investigated in a solid argon matrix. HCN and CH3Cl were co-condensed onto a substrate held at 10 K with an excess of argon gas, and the infrared spectrum was measured using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. Quantum chemical geometry optimization, harmonic frequency, and natural bonding orbital calculations indicate stabilized hydrogen- and halogen-bonded structures. The two resulting weakly bound complexes are both composed of one CH3Cl molecule bound to a (HCN)3 subunit, where the three HCN molecules are bound head-to-tail in a ring formation. Our study suggests that─in the presence of CH3Cl─the formation of (HCN)3 is promoted through complexation. Since HCN aggregates are an important precursor to prebiotic monomers (amino acids and nucleobases) and other life-bearing polymers, this study has astrophysical implications toward the search for life in space.

Abstract
The specific far-infrared spectral signatures associated with highly localized large-amplitude out-of-plane librational motion of water molecules have recently been demonstrated to provide sensitive spectroscopic probes for the micro-solvation of organic molecules [Mihrin et al., Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys. 21(4), 1717 (2019)]. The present work employs this direct far-infrared spectroscopic approach to investigate the non-covalent intermolecular forces involved in the micro-solvation of a selection of seven ether molecules with systematically varied alkyl substituents: dimethyl ether, diethyl ether, diisopropyl ether, ethyl methyl ether, t-butyl methyl ether, and t-butyl ethyl ether. The ranking of the observed out-of-plane water librational band signatures for this selected series of ether–water complexes embedded in inert neon matrices at 4 K reveals information about the interplay of directional intermolecular hydrogen bond motifs and non-directional and long-range dispersion interactions for the micro-solvated structures. These far-infrared observables differentiate minor subtle effects introduced by specific alkyl substituents and serve as rigorous experimental benchmarks for modern quantum chemical methodologies of various levels of scalability, which often fail to accurately predict the structural variations and corresponding vibrational signatures of the closely related systems. The accurate interaction energies of the series of ether–water complexes have been predicted by the domain based local pair natural orbital coupled cluster theory with single-, double-, and perturbative triple excitations, followed by a local energy decomposition analysis of the energy components. In some cases, the secondary dispersion forces are in direct competition with the primary intermolecular hydrogen bonds as witnessed by the specific out-of-plane librational signatures.

Abstract
In this article, a new multi-functional high-vacuum astrophysical ice setup, VIZSLA (Versatile Ice Zigzag Sublimation Setup for Laboratory Astrochemistry), is introduced. The instrument allows for the investigation of astrophysical processes both in a low-temperature para-H2 matrix and in astrophysical analog ices. In the para-H2 matrix, the reaction of astrochemical molecules with H atoms and H+ ions can be studied effectively. For the investigation of astrophysical analog ices, the setup is equipped with various irradiation and particle sources: an electron gun for modeling cosmic rays, an H atom beam source, a microwave H atom lamp for generating H Lyman-α radiation, and a tunable (213-2800 nm) laser source. For analysis, an FT-IR (and a UV-visible) spectrometer and a quadrupole mass analyzer are available. The setup has two cryostats, offering novel features for analysis. Upon the so-called temperature-programmed desorption (TPD), the molecules, desorbing from the substrate of the first cryogenic head, can be mixed with Ar and can be deposited onto the substrate of the other cryogenic head. The efficiency of the redeposition was measured to be between 8% and 20% depending on the sample and the redeposition conditions. The well-resolved spectrum of the molecules isolated in an Ar matrix serves a unique opportunity to identify the desorbing products of a processed ice. Some examples are provided to show how the para-H2 matrix experiments and the TPD-matrix-isolation recondensation experiments can help understand astrophysically important chemical processes at low temperatures. It is also discussed how these experiments can complement the studies carried out by using similar astrophysical ice setups.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent studies of lipid extraction from microalgae have focused primarily on dewatered or dried samples, and the processes are simple with high lipid yield. Yet, the dewatering with drying step is energy intensive, which makes the energy input during the lipid production more than energy output from obtained lipid. Thus, exploring an extraction technique for just a thickened sample without the dewatering, drying and auxiliary operation (such as cell disruption) is very significant. Whereas lipid extraction from the thickened microalgae is complicated by the high water content involved, and traditional solvent, hence, cannot work well. Dimethyl ether (DME), a green solvent, featuring a high affinity for both water and organic compounds with an ability to penetrate the cell walls has the potential to achieve this goal. RESULTS This study investigated an energy-saving method for lipid extraction using DME as the solvent with an entrainer solution (ethanol and acetone) for flocculation-thickened microalgae. Extraction efficiency was evaluated in terms of extraction time, DME dosage, entrainer dosage, and ethanol:acetone ratio. Optimal extraction occurred after 30 min using 4.2 mL DME per 1 mL microalgae, with an entrainer dosage of 8% at 1:2 ethanol:acetone. Raw lipid yields and its lipid component (represented by fatty acid methyl ester) contents were compared against those of common extraction methods (Bligh and Dryer, and Soxhlet). Thermal gravimetry/differential thermal analysis, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and C/H/N elemental analyses were used to examine differences in lipids extracted using each of the evaluated methods. Considering influence of trace metals on biodiesel utilization, inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry and inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy analyses were used to quantify trace metals in the extracted raw lipids, which revealed relatively high concentrations of Mg, Na, K, and Fe. CONCLUSIONS Our DME-based method recovered 26.4% of total raw lipids and 54.4% of total fatty acid methyl esters at first extraction with remnants being recovered by a 2nd extraction. In additional, the DME-based approach was more economical than other methods, because it enabled simultaneous dewatering with lipid extraction and no cell disruption was required. The trace metals of raw lipids indicated a purification demand in subsequent refining process.

Abstract
The most prominent spectroscopic observable for the hydrogen bonding between individual molecules in liquid water is the broad absorption band detected in the spectral region between 300 and 900 cm-1. The present work demonstrates how the associated large-amplitude out-of-plane OH librational motion of H2O molecules also directly reflects the microsolvation of organic compounds. This highly localized OH librational motion of the first solvating H2O molecule causes a significant change of dipole moment and gives rise to a strong characteristic band in the far-infrared spectral region, which is correlated quantitatively with the complexation energy. The out-of-plane OH librational band origins ranging from 324.5 to 658.9 cm-1 have been assigned experimentally for a series of four binary hydrogen-bonded H2O complexes embedded in solid neon involving S-, O- and N-containing compounds with increasing hydrogen bond acceptor capability. The hydrogen bond energies for altogether eight binary H2O complexes relative to the experimental value of 13.2 ± 0.12 kJ mol-1 for the prototypical (H2O)2 system [Rocher-Casterline et al., J. Chem. Phys., 2011, 134, 211101] are revealed directly by these far-infrared spectroscopic observables. The far-infrared spectral signatures are able to capture even minor differences in the hydrogen bond acceptor capability of O atoms with slightly different alkyl substituents in the order H-O-C(CH3)3 > CH3-O-CH3 > H-O-CH(CH3)2 > H-O-CH2CH3.

Abstract
The infrared absorption spectra of hydrogen-bonded complexes of propylene oxide with either ethanol or 2-fluoroethanol have been recorded in neon matrices. Mixtures of propylene oxide and ethanol or propylene oxide and 2-fluoroethanol vapors were mixed with an excess of neon gas and deposited onto a KBr substrate at 4.2 K. The results indicate that hydrogen-bonded complexes were formed with propylene oxide as the hydrogen bond acceptor and either ethanol or 2-fluoroethanol as the hydrogen bond donors. The features assigned to the O−H stretch were red-shifted by 175 and 193 cm−1 for the ethanol- and 2-fluoroethanol-containing complexes, respectively. The difference in red shifts can be accounted for due to the greater acidity of 2-fluroethanol. Deuterium isotope experiments were conducted to help confirm the assignment of the O–H stretch for the complexes. As well, structures and infrared spectra were calculated using B3LYP/6-311++G(2d,2p) calculations and were used to compare with the experimental spectra. A “scaling equation” rather than a scaling factor was used and is shown to greatly increase the utility of the calculations when comparing with experimental spectra. An examination of the O–H stretching red shifts for many hydrogen-bound complexes reveals a relationship between the shift and the difference between the acidity of the hydrogen bond donor and the basicity of the hydrogen bond acceptor (the enthalpy of proton transfer). Both hydrogen-bonded complexes and proton-bound complexes appear to have a maximum in the reduced frequency value that corresponds to complexes where the hydrogen/proton are equally shared between the two bases.

Abstract
Natural nonionic amphiphiles forming monolayers, bilayers, micelles, or biomembranes create a positive dipole potential at the boundary with water. In a series of papers we have reported on Langmuir monolayers with CF3 terminals of the polar heads, which show a negative surface dipole potential ΔV (Petrov , J. G.; Andreeva, T. D.; Kurt, D. K.; Möhwald, H. J. Phys. Chem. B 2005, 109, 14102). Here we use vibrational sum frequency spectroscopy (SF) to study the origin of the opposite ΔV signs of Langmuir films of CH3(CH2)20COCH2CH3 (ethyl ether, EE) and CH3(CH2)20COCH2CF3 (fluorinated ethyl ether, FEE). The vibrational sum frequency spectra are recorded at the same film density of the S-phase of the EE and FEE monolayers and analyzed in the spectral regions of OH, COC, CH3, and CF3 stretching vibrations because these functional groups could be responsible for the different dipole potentials. We compare the rearrangement of the pure water surface by EE and FEE monolayers and the conformations of EE and FEE polar heads. The analysis is performed according to the three-capacitor model of the dipole potential of Langmuir monolayers (Demchak, R. T.; Fort, T., Jr. J. Colloid Interface Sci. 1974, 46, 191). The results show that reversal of the ΔV sign caused by fluorination of the polar heads originates from the upward-oriented CF3 terminals of the FEE heads, whose negative normal dipole moment component determines the negative dipole potential of the FEE monolayer.

Abstract
Hydration changes of poly(2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethyl methacrylate) (PMoEoEMa) during thermosensitive phase separation in water have been investigated by infrared spectroscopy. The C=O stretching band can be separated into three components assigned to non-hydrated carbonyl groups and singly and doubly hydrogen-bonded carbonyl groups (1728, 1709, and 1685 cm-1, respectively). Relatively large parts of the carbonyl groups (50% in 30 wt % solution) do not form hydrogen bonds even below the transition temperature (Tp) probably because they possess crowded positions near the backbone. The fraction of hydrogen-bonding carbonyl groups decreased during phase separation by approximately 0.2. Among five nu(C-H) bands, the highest- and the lowest-frequency bands (nu(C-H)A and nu(C-H)E) exhibited relatively large red shifts of 8 and 11 cm(-1), respectively. DFT calculations indicate that the formation of a H-bond between the ether oxygen and water leads to blue shifts of nu(C-H) of adjacent alkyl groups and has a larger effect than a direct H-bond to the alkyl groups, namely, C-H...O H-bonds. The fraction of hydrogen-bonding methoxy oxygens estimated from the position of the nu(C-H)A is 1 at <Tp and zero at >Tp. This result indicates that the methoxy oxygens and the carbonyl are more favorably hydrated than the other at <Tp and >Tp, respectively.

Abstract
Hydration changes of poly(2-methoxyethyl vinyl ether) (PMOVE) synthesized via living cationic polymerization have been investigated during a temperature-responsive phase separation in water by using infrared spectroscopy. An aqueous PMOVE solution has lower critical solution temperatures (LCSTs) of 66 degrees C in H2O and 65 degrees C in D2O at approximately 15 wt %. During phase separation, the C-H stretching (nu(C-H)) bands of PMOVE shift downward (red shift). In particular, the IR band assigned to the antisymmetric stretching vibration of the terminal methyl groups exhibits a remarkably large red shift by 16 cm-1. The band also exhibits a red shift with increasing polymer concentration at T < Tp. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations of the models of hydrated PMOVE indicate that the shift is due mainly to the breaking of hydrogen bonds (H-bonds) between the oxygen of the methoxy groups and water and partially to the breaking of the CH...O H-bond to them.

Abstract
The complexes formed by noncovalent interactions between formic acid and dimethyl ether are investigated by ab initio methods and characterized by matrix isolation spectroscopy. Six complexes with binding energies between -2.26 and -7.97 kcal mol(-1) (MP2/cc-pVTZ+zero point vibrational energy+basis set superposition erros) are identified. The two strongest bound complexes are, within a range of 0.3 kcal mol(-1), isoenergetic. The binding in these six dimers can be described in terms of OH...O, C=O...H, C-O...H and CH...O interactions. Matrix isolation spectroscopy allowed to characterize the two strongest bound complexes by their infrared spectra.
