Modulating the Amine–CO<sub>2</sub> Interaction Strength: Toward Efficient Carbon Capture
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This study contributes to a comprehensive understanding of the interactions between CO 2 and amines at the molecular level by exploring the rotational spectra of binary complexes between CO 2 and eight different amines through pulsed-jet Fourier transform microwave spectroscopy and quantum chemical calculations. The findings reveal a consistent pattern in which CO 2 is bonded to the amino group, primarily through a C···N tetrel bond, while being supported by C–H···O/C hydrogen bonds. Notably, the binding energies increase from primary through tertiary amines and with increasing chain length of the alkyl groups. These groups are found to enhance the electron density at the amino group significantly, thereby facilitating the formation of stronger C···N tetrel bonds. The insights provided into how the interaction strength is modulated by the geometries of amines are deemed essential for the design of more effective CO 2 adsorption materials, thus advancing carbon capture technologies.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
